From Amish and Mennonite Kitchens Paperback – 1 Nov. 1995

I love this cookbook! It has great tasting recipes. I have bought so many of them and gave them to relatives and friends, they love 5he book also! Thanks for having it.

As an (unwillingly) transplanted PA German, I missed the foods my mother and grandmother used to make. This cookbook brings it all back with easy-to-make recipes that turn out the way they're supposed to. Unfortunately, some recipes are designed to feed a multitude (as in "take one bushel" of something), and it would have been nice to have had them adapted for cooks with smaller families. That aside, I turn to this cookbook regularly and always find something tasty to make. One thing I've noticed, though, is that just about every recipe seems to call for flour, butter, or sugar--or all three--the delicious backbone of PA German cooking. Enjoy!

A friend had this book and it had alot of good recipes. I found it here and glad I did.

Edited to add: I've already been through several recipes and every single one has come out perfectly. Exactly what you'd expect. Good, home-cooked food that reminds you of how life used to be. This really is the best cookbook I've EVER used. I want to give one to every single person in my family!An excellent cookbook you won't find in modern times. There were recipes that were made for me by family that I'd long forgotten. Simple, delicious from scratch staple recipes that can keep you going for years! I actually picked up my copy for free at a giveabook / takeabook corner box and loved it so much I bought a used copy here from Amazon for my sister. I can't wait until she gets it!

This is the best cookbook I've ever had. The recipes are incredible! And the book itself is beautifully made with excellent calligraphy. I have made a number of the desserts and I find the cakes to be without equal.The casseroles are quite tasty. The recipe instructions are easy to follow.
