Recipes from our Collection
Looking for some historical inspiration in the kitchen? We have combed the cookbooks in our collection to find recipes, both delicious and adventurous, for all experience levels. Just as tastes have changed, so have methods of measuring. A tip for would-be chefs: you may find outdated terms and measurements in these recipes. A quick internet search will point you in the right direction.
From the kitchen of the Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs, please enjoy the recipes below. You can also download a blank version of our recipe card here.
