Description

Favourite Recipes from Old New Brunswick Kitchens features the province's traditional cuisine in a format accessible for the home cook of today. Included here are classic chowders and soups, delightful fish and chicken dishes, and tasty breads and desserts. A special section even features traditional Acadian dishes--including rapee pie and chicken fricot--and recipes popular among the province's many lumber camps. Stuart Trueman's often startling instructions for old cures and medications make this book a much-loved resource for both foodies and history lovers.

About the authors

Mildred Trueman, a graduate of the Montreal General Hospital School of Nursing, spent years in institutional and industrial nursing. But her hobby was always cooking. A native of New Brunswick's Westmorland and Albert counties, she compiled the recipes in Favourite Recipes from Old New Brunswick Kitchens from faded notebooks, scraps of paper, and grandmothers' memories.
