Synopsis
Now used by many Pennsylvania resorts as their official cookbook, this book by J. George Frederick, one-time president of the Gourmet Society of New York, is an excellent introduction to every aspect of Pennsylvania Dutch cookery from hors d'oeuvres to desserts. Over 350 recipes for apple soup, liver dumplings, shrimp wiggle, spaetzle, and more., Visitors to the Pennsylvania Dutch country in Pennsylvania are usually delighted with the unique food tradition that survives there among the hills and small, well-tended farms. Ultimately based on the rich cookery of the peasants and small townspeople of the Rhineland and Switzerland, "Dutch" cookery has expanded into the new foodstuffs and materials that America has to offer, and it is one of the gastronomic treats of the country. Dishes such as apple soup, baked bananas, Dutch liver dumplings, spaetzle and braten, walnut shad, and oyster peppers are enjoyed by almost everyone. One of the difficulties about Dutch cookery, however, is that is always has been a home cooking style within a closely knit community, and it does not go by cookbooks. Until this book appeared, the best that one could do was to try to cadge an occasional recipe from a Dutch acquaintance or a local inn. Mr. George Frederick, one-time president of the Gourmet Society of New York, was in an unmatched position to record the delights of Dutch cookery. Himself a native Pennsylvania Dutchman, with access to countless kitchens and family cooking secrets, he was also a gourmet of international stature. He has gathered together 358 recipes that show the Dutch tradition at its strongest, all dishes with the unique savor that distinguishes them from their occasional counterparts in other cooking systems. His book is so good that it in turn has been taken over by many Pennsylvania resorts as the official cookbook. To list only a few of the mouthwatering recipes that Mr. Frederick gives in clear, accurate recipes that you can prepare: Dutch spiced cucumbers, raspberry sago soup, pretzel soup, squab with dumplings Nazareth, shrimp wiggle, Dutch beer eel, sherry sauerkraut, cheese custard, currant cakes, and many fine dumplings, pancakes, and soups . All types of food are covered., Now used by many Pennsylvania resorts as their official cookbook, this book by J. George Frederick, one-time president of the Gourmet Society of New York, is an excellent introduction to every aspect of Pennsylvania Dutch cookery from hors d'oeuvres to desserts.

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.

  • EZ Pennsylvania Dutch Recipies

    My father was Pennsylvania Dutch and my mother cooked and baked meals and desserts he liked such as SauerKraut and Shoo Fly Pie. I wanted this book for it's colorful Folk Art cover and the EZ PA Dutch recipes but ESPECIALLY the Shoo Fly Pie and I wasn't disappointed! Love this book and recommend it to others. It sits on top of my refrigerator within easy reach and to add to the similar décor in my kitchen.
