From Peter Pauper Press (1954)
[FROM BOOKLADY COOKS] We love this ABC series from the late 50's and the way the writers give us a poem and a recipe for (almost) every letter. For instance:
Appetites sharpen
at apples and ham
Baked to a fare-thee-well
with brown-sugared yam.
[FROM THE PUBLISHERS] In this book, you will find countless ideas for quick one-course dinners as well as imaginative and festive dishes that you will want to set before your most cherished guests.
None of the recipes is complicated, or too difficult for the inexperienced cook. WE have had her particularly in mind in assembling these recipes, since it is she, and not her older and more experienced sister, who usually holds down a job and cooks too. Many of the dishes can be prepared the day before, and baked at the last minute. And many are quickies that can be both prepared and cooked in an hour's time.
A casserole, a tossed green salad, and steaming coffee make an elegant and sophisticated dinner. Add a fancy dessert and you have a feast!
