This historic cooking web site contains thousands of links pertaining to open hearth, bake oven, wood stove and other pre WWI forms of cooking and related subjects. Included are more than 650 e-text historic cookbooks and about 300 museums with cooking demonstrations.
Other topics range from mills which grind and sell flours/cornmeals to inventories, glossaries, art, and more which are on the web. Monthly topics deal with various subjects such as Rumford Baking Powder, Macaroni machines, Butter preserving, Acorn mush, Frost Fairs, Camp cookery, Fools, Salmagundi, Sherdoon, Fish Pond, Hay, and Pepper Pot.
I will continue to add sites to the links lists and new topics. The photographs were taken by me unless otherwise stated. Please contact me, ( patreber@hearthcook.com ) with any additions or corrections.... Pat Reber
