Farm recipes and food secrets from the Norske Nook
Farm Recipes and Food Secrets from the Norske Nook
T’s father found this book at the church bazaar for 50 cents! He intended to give it to T’s aunt who collects this kind of recipes books. He left it on the coffee table and I started reading it one evening when we were hanging out at the in laws’ place.
The recipes book is fun to read, it has so many intriguing “old farmer” stories and cooking tips scattered among the recipes. One of the not so secret tips especially to those factories that make traditional biscuits/cookies/mooncakes in Malaysia, she used lard in her pie crust recipes!
Most of the recipes called for fresh produce and simple ingredients. I like that as I prefer to cook our meals from scratch with fresh ingredients instead of cooking from over processed ingredients.
I borrowed the book to try out some recipes and T’s father then decided to give it to me.
