A PAUSE FOR HISTORY


The recipes I've been posting for the last few months have all come - well, mostly - from a cookbook in two volumes that I created many years ago for friends for Christmas. I had collected recipes for many years and they would no longer fit in my recipe box. So I started typing them, never believing that I would wind up with 15 3-ring-binder volumes. From that vast assortment of culinary information, I abstracted the recipes that I used the most often to create the two volumes, called Phil's Favorite Food. After some of my other friends discovered I had done this, they asked if they could be included so I created, from the old edition, four more copies. It was a lot of work but they were all good friends and I enjoyed working on the project.

Now that I have posted so much from those two volumes, I'm going back through them to see what I've left out here on my blog. So from now on, the recipes I post will be recipes from the original cookbooks that have so far not appeared here. I'm just going through the categories and posting what has not been posted so far. So the following posts may not be germane to the season and will be in sequence with the usual categories in cookbooks: soups, salads, meat, chicken, etc.

I hope you're enjoying reading my blog. Soon, a recipe for dilled lobster, avocado and potato salad with a horseradish dressing. Yum!
