Title A name given to the resource RCA0007 - Vintage Handwritten Recipe Card Collection w/ Metal Recipe Box 60+ Recipes Subject The topic of the resource Cooking Recipe Cards Description An account of the resource A small, but interesting collection. The cards in this box spanned from classic recipes, to soap, to DIY bee pollen to keep your bees alive until they can start harvesting their own pollen. There were also some repeated recipes and, of those, the Sour Milk Pancakes stood out. There are two versions of that recipe in the collection. Sour Milk Pancakes is the older version and expects that cooks have soured milk on hand. Later on, the recipe was updated to use buttermilk instead. From what I can find online, this transition happened as home refrigeration became more common. Prior to homes having a refrigerator, milk would sour fairly quickly and would then be used for the acid in recipes like this rather than having the sour milk go to waste. Another standout recipe in this set is Sukiyaki (for 100 People). The scale of this recipe indicates that this collection was built by someone who would cook for large events. There are also a few other recipes, like Punch, that are scaled for a crowd. One of the recipes (Chicken Casserole) is attributed to 'Pres. and Sis. Kimball' which could indicate members of the Church of Latter-Day Saints.
