"Most people have fond memories of the great desserts, cakes and cookies their grandmothers baked. Some lucky cooks have treasured heirloom recipes, preserved and handed down to them. Here in one volume are 80+ great heirloom recipes from Nova Scotia kitchens, all tested and adapted for today. Among them are a few traditional classics that remain favourites - like blueberry grunt and Scottish shortbread. But most of these recipes are almost forgotten, yet they offer tempting and delicious ideas that home cooks will want to try. Recipes like old-fashioned molasses candy, sweet black cherry pudding, and Acadian lemon buttermilk pie. Alice Burdick is a dedicated home baker who stumbled across a forgotten collection of hundreds of traditional Nova Scotia recipes. She tested and tasted, and came up with this select of the best of these heirloom recipes. Now they're ready for revival - and for bringing back many happy memories of treats from the past that taste as good as they always did - or better!"--From publisher.
