Comfort food in all its glory is the focus of this charming all-American cookbook. Mrs. Appleyard on pot roast: "...a dish of such noble nature when it has been given a mother's care for two days..."... This description may be from another edition of this product.
How delightful that this wonderful book is back in print. Part classic cookbook with fully described American New England recipes, partly family memoir of the World War II years, partly incisive characterizations of the many visitors to the "Appleyard" home, this book will bring you many happy hours reading, thinking, and cooking (and eating!) Mrs. Appleyard is no country bumpkin; her friends include Greenwich Village mavens as well as local New England characters. And her recipes are presented as part of full menus with descriptions of the social events that occured in her small Vermont village. A beautifully warm, evocative, smart and funny cookbook. Similar to Gladys Tabor, Peg Bracken.
