I grew up in a Pennsylvania Dutch family and last year published a book of our family recipes (Fry Bacon. Add Onions: The Valentine Family & Friends Cookbookso I was very happy to see this book and was not at all disappointed. I saw so many recipes that are very similar to ones in my books. My Gram Werner was famous for her liver dumplings and I was so happy to pass on that recipe but in this book I found a virtually identical recipe called "liver noodles". And the recipes for dandelion salad, rhubarb pie, and currant preserves are so much like Gram's. It is just delightful to realize how similar in authenticity these recipes are. What a treasure this book is!
