About this product

Product Information

This book simply screams NOSTALGIA. Here are the stories and recipes of our mothers and grandmothers as they cooked their way through two world wars, food shortages, and the Great Depression. This lively and witty book chronicles how household gadgets dramatically changed the lives of women forever. It takes you into the kitchens of young housewives who whipped up cherry chiffon pies and weird little sandwiches to the beat of big band swing tunes playing on the radio. Lured by glossy product advertisements, these women were seduced into thinking that a green wiggly dessert would add glamour and romance to their lives. This book takes both a serious and a humorous look at women in a changing world.

"A little masterpiece of nostalgic cookery, Mama's In The Kitchen: Weird & Wonderful Home Cooking 1900-1950 showcases stories and recipes of how American women cooked their way through two world wars, food shortages, and the Great Depression. From Skewered Coconut Shrimp; Eggless, Milkless, Butterless Cake; and Aunt Sammy's Gingerbread with Cream Cheese Filling; to Toll House Cookies; Volcano Potatoes; and Chocolate Orange Crunchies, Mama's In The Kitchen is a superbly presented and nostalgic stroll down home-made culinary history. Enhanced further with chapters devoted to "Weird Little Sandwiches", "Foods That Wiggle", "No Way!"; "Health and Remedies"; "Household Hints"; a bibliography, and a superb little resource list for "Finding Vintage Cookbooks", Mama's In The Kitchen is a "must" for anyone who enjoys strolling down a "yesteryear" collection of culinary pleasantries." -- Midwest Book Review
