Over 100 Amish Recipes in This Cookbook
The Amish are a simple group of people with Swiss German origins. They are closely related, but distinct from the Mennonites. They are known for plain clothes, simple farm living and a reluctance to adopt modern technology. During the early 18th century, many Amish migrated to Pennsylvania and therefore are often referred to as the Pennsylvania Dutch.
They are deeply religious with a strong focus on family. The cuisine is simple with traditional qualities and plays an important part in the Amish social life and culture. Amish food is important for potlucks, funerals, weddings, fundraisers and other events. Food is a important product in many Amish businesses that help support Amish families along with quilts and furniture. Auntie Anne's pretzels is an example of a product that was started by an Amish member, Anne F. Beiler.
Besides pretzels, Amish food is traditionally German and are known for Amish potato salad, maccaroni salad, casseroles and pies. This cookbook is full of delicious Amish recipes for you to enjoy at home so that you and your family can enjoy the wonderful togetherness brought to you with traditional Amish cuisine.
