                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

STYLE
(shown on page 96)
Brittle-crisp, with a tang of lemon and a
touch of salt, these are similar to the Por-
tuguese teatime cookies called Braga Corn-
flowers. Very easy and quick to make by
the standard method, they are even easier
with a food processor.

1  cup flour
1/2  cup sugar
3/8 teaspoon each salt and baking soda
1/4  cup butter or margarine, softened
2  teaspoons milk
1  teaspoon vanilla
2  teaspoons grated lemon peel (see Note)

In medium bowl mix flour, sugar, salt
and soda. With pastry blender or 2
knives cut in butter until particles resemble
cornmeal. Add milk, vanilla and peel; stir
with fork to mix. (NOTE Or put all in-
gredients into food processor with metal
blade but do not grate lemon first; instead
add zest from half a large lemon. Whirl
until ingredients are thoroughly mixed and
lemon peel is chopped fine.) Gather into
ball; work with hands to form a pliant
dough. Shape in rectangle about 7x2x1
inches. Wrap in waxed paper and chill at
least 1 hour or until very firm. Slice 1/8
inch thick. If slices crack, pinch dough to-
gether. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased
baking sheet. Bake in preheated 375° oven
about 8 minutes or until golden. Immedi-
ately remove to racks to cool. Makes about
36. Per cookie: 35 cal, 0 g pro, 5 g car, 1 g

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

# Rhubarb Dessert

## Ingredients

### Filling
- 4 cups rhubarb, chopped
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 pkg strawberry Jello (3 oz), dry
- 20 large marshmallows

### Topping
- 1 pkg Dream Whip, prepared according to package directions

### Crust
- 1 graham cracker crust (9 inch, pre-baked or store-bought)

## Instructions

1. Combine chopped rhubarb and sugar in a heavy saucepan.
2. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb breaks down completely into a soft mush and releases its liquid — approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
3. Remove from heat. Add dry strawberry Jello and marshmallows; stir until both are fully dissolved and incorporated.
4. Return to low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture begins to thicken and congeal slightly.
5. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
6. Prepare Dream Whip according to package directions.
7. Fold prepared Dream Whip into the cooled rhubarb mixture until light and evenly combined.
8. Pour into graham cracker crust.
9. Refrigerate until fully set — at least 3 to 4 hours or overnight.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>

                  <text>This was the collection that started it all.  I found this posted on eBay as a large lot of recipe cards, clippings, and other cooking related materials but not box to contain them all.  When I received the collection, I was hooked.  There were lots of handwritten cards, typed cards, clippings glued to cards, promotional cards, and everything in between.&#13;
&#13;
As I worked through the archival steps on these, there were lots of little nuances that stood out.  First, you’ll see quite a few cards with magazine and newspaper clippings that I’ve included.  These stood out to me because there was clearly a lot of care put into cutting these out and then gluing them to cards to include in their recipe box.  I find this extra time and care speaks a lot to me about the value of these clippings versus the hundreds of clippings that were simply loose in the collection.&#13;
&#13;
Second, there were a lot of canning and pickling related cards here.  So much has changed about canning since the time period of this collection.  The use of alum and lime certainly stood out as neither are recommended by the USDA anymore.  Additionally, many of the recipes expected a level of knowledge about the overall process.  For example, none of the cards explain the actual water bath canning tools or process.  Lastly, I got to learn a whole new (to me) unit of measure, the peck.  One peck is 8 dry quarts.&#13;
&#13;
Third, there is a type of dessert that self-separates during baking which I found completely fascinating.  An example of this is “Cake Lemon Pie” (RCA0006-20260609-0111).  This is high on my list of recipes to try so I can get my head better wrapped about the separation during cooking.&#13;
&#13;
I also spent a good bit of time polishing the recipe parsing process during this collection.  The formatted versions should be more consistent going forward and I’ll be trying to capture interesting notes in the Editor’s Note section at the bottom.</text>
