Amish Cooking

Additional Details

Description: Amish food is nothing fancy -- just extremely good! It's plain, honest fare that reflects the lives of the people themselves and brings to mind the way America began. That's hardly surprising, because the Amish have kept to the ideals of the past, leading a simple life that is based on hard work and strong religious beliefs. 

In our busy, modern world, it is comforting to return to a time when life was less complicated, even if it's only for a meal now and then. Today's life style hardly leaves any time for the family to gather around the dinner table to share the events of the day. For the Amish, however, homecooked meals are the center of family life and so their simple, homey food can help us recreate our less hectic past. 

If you would like to try recipes that bring back memories of Sunday dinner at grandmother's, then try a little "Amish Cooking." You will find no exotic or expensive ingredients and no difficult methods in any of our fifty time-tested recipes. What you will find instead is a delightful selection of favorite dishes from Amish communities all over the country, ones that you will want to share with your family and friends in true Amish tradition.
