                <text>This is a collection I found on eBay that turned out to have a lot of really interesting aspects to it.  Some of the cards had the 'recipe from the kitchen of' filled in with names and even dates which gives a ton of history and context.  Additionally, this collection had some interesting nuances.  Firstly, there was one card (0015 - Molded Ambrosia) where the instructions on the rear of the card were partly documented with some kind of short hand.  I was not able to decipher the short hand, but with AI help, I was able to suss out the instructions.  Additionally, there are a number of repeated recipes in the collection.  This hints at a few possibilities.  The two main ideas to me are either recipes were requested from the original cooks more than once, or more than one collection was combined over time.  0005, 0031, and 0032 are great examples of this.  Two of the recipes (0005 and 0031) are for 'Corn Cakes' and note that the recipe is from Edna Fausz.  Edna is also mentioned on a recipe (0032) for 'Cloud Light Pancakes' which shows as being from the kitchen of Alice Gall.  This seems to imply that for 'Cloud Light Pancakes' Alice got the recipe from Edna originally, wrote it down and applied her label and then sent the card to Paula.  The other two (0005/0031) were also originally from Edna and sent by way of Alice to Paula.  These links are what make these collections so much more than just the recipes.</text>

Recipe from the kitchen of Aileen Landreth

     1# Ground Beef                    Double  2#
     4 tbs. Catsup                             8 tbs.
     2 tsp Horseradish                         4 tsp.
     1 onion grated                    2 onions or 1 large
     1½ tsp Worchester Sauce                   3 tsp.
     1 tsp salt                                2 tsp.
     12 Hbgr. Buns                             24 buns

Combine in mixing bowl - mix well - divide in 12 equal balls.
Open buns, spread thin mustard on tops - return to bag. Place a
ball of mixture on each bottom of bun - with the fingers spread
(over)

Back:
evenly over bun and well over edges.
  Place on broiler rack; broil until brown - takes 3-5 minutes
according to distance from heat. Watch carefully until you
know time. Place tops on brown — only long enough to heat
and slightly brown. Door ajar - 1½ min or so.

  Not long enough to make a loom — (by slow husbands)



Can be mixed &amp; placed on buns, wax paper between the night before.
Makes it easy &amp; fast —— when you have fast neighbors.

# Broiled Hamburgers

## Ingredients

- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 Tbsp catsup
- 2 tsp horseradish
- 1 onion, grated
- 1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt

- Mustard (thin, to spread)

## Instructions

1. Combine ground beef, catsup, horseradish, grated onion, Worcestershire sauce, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix well.
2. Divide mixture into 12 equal balls.
3. Open buns and spread a thin layer of mustard on the top halves. Return tops to bag.
4. Place a ball of mixture on each bottom bun half. With fingers, spread evenly over bun and well over edges.
