Continue the tradition of delicious Mennonite cooking and hospitality with the aid of this classic Mennonite Community Cookbook. Complied by Mary Emma Showalter, this cookbook features more than 1,100 recipes from German, Swiss, Dutch, and Russian Mennonite kitchens. Showalter introduces each chapter with warm recollections of her grandmother’s cooking outdoor bake ovens, summer kitchens, and a pie shelf in the springhouse.

First published in 1950, the 65th anniversary edition has standardized measurements for the modern reader (no more guessing what “ten blubs of molasses” might be!), a brief history of the cookbook, and new color photos, all while retaining all the original recipes and traditional Fraktur drawing.
