From Dust Jacket: At a time when the trend in the cokking world is 'back to basics,' there could be no better moment to sample the plesures of the shaker table...presents a collection of 100 recipes inspred by the bountiful fare enjoyed by the Shakers in the middle of the last century...recipes range from hearty soups,to delicious meat, fish and poultry dishes; to side dishes, vegetarian delights, cookies, candies, cakes and pies, and wholesome breads.

I say: The introduction is a brief, interesting history of this movement. Here is a sampling of the recipes: Spiced Baked Bean Soup, Codfish Balls; Chicken Potpie; Asparagus and Cheddar Pudding; Potato Cakes with Rosemary; Sweet Potato Bread; Comb Honey Cake; Rosewater Ice Cream; Maple Pecan FudgeGingerade
