This was an excellent dinner for four, and then leftovers for two nights! Originally was not going to add the ribs, but it was amazing with them.

The perfect thing about it: I was able to do most of the cooking the night before. The afternoon of the dinner party I put it back on the stove for a slow re-heat. The last third of the cooking time was low touch, low attention. I could pay attention to my guests.

Those are some AWESOME high carbon knives you have there. Real workhorses that will be able to cut for generations. Great article you have here, cutlery fascinates me.

What a nice conversation to discover.. I, too, have this book now. Found it for $1.00 at a garage sale today. It’s not to the point of being duct-taped yet; however, it has clearly been well-loved. The elderly Seller hesitated for a moment & then she said, “This belonged to my sister” & pushed it toward me saying, “Take good care of it”. My book has additional folded recipes stuffed inside the front and back covers.. and is also green with gold lettering. Every recipe is lovely.. wow, these recipes are treasures: top-quality, remarkable. Enjoy your sweet cookbook, everyone!!

My mother in-law just gave me her Lily Wallace New American Cook Book 1947, it was given to her as a wedding gift. Great book! Love reading cook books, expecially ones that tell a story..

I have to say I loved this blog entry. The best takeaway: “Coffee is drunk with balls, like it’s made.”

My 85 yr old friend recieved a “THE Lily Wallace NEW American Cook Book.”
It’s title page is lost so I can’t date it other than the gift was to her for wedding and signed and dated by giver (not lily) 1941… it’s a green cover with beige deco graffics. AWESOME book!!!

Any Input appreciated…NOT for sale.

Have this book as it was given to my mother for her wedding in 1946 and passed on. Some of the index pages are torn, but, what a book!

This was certainly written for a different country in a different century. Must say many recipes are delicious and very simple to prepare.

Today, recipes are given names by their ingredients, back then they were not.

Really like using this book and find recipes not seen today!
