About this item

The most delicious recipes of the past recast for today's home cook. New Englanders know their heirlooms—clocks, quilts, vegetables,and more. Now Yankee Magazine rediscovers and updates their most delectable classic recipes, like Chicken and Dumplings, Roquefort Biscuits, Red Flannel Hash, Corn Pudding, and Snow Cake, for today’s home cooks who appreciate a great heirloom when they see one. Starters and soups, sides and meats and fish, breads and desserts, and more have been retested and updated for today’s cooks and today’s palates. To enhance the fun, retro sidebars feature excerpts from the magazine dating back to the 1930s, and you’ll find the stories and histories behind many of the recipes as well. No publication better captures the essence of New England than Yankee Magazine.
