Recipe Scrapbook: The Perfect Place to Store Your Treasured Recipes

by Caroline Brewester

Description

     For generations, cooks have passed their special recipes on to friends and family, perhaps keeping a journal with cherished memorabilia and pictures. And that’s what Caroline Brewester has done, too: whipped up a Recipe Scrapbook with her favorite dishes from around the world that everyone can enjoy. Caroline has created an appealing and playful scrapbook format, filled with helpful information and little treasures to find. It features 16 pockets: eight of them contain colorful postcards with printed recipes on the back, while another eight have letters offering cooking hints, tidbits on various regional fare, and even more fabulous recipes.

     Caroline has hand-picked 64 of the most mouthwatering, evocative choices from her collection, dividing them into soups and starters, salads and vegetables, meat and fish dishes, cakes and cookies, desserts and drinks.

     What’s more, within each section readers can add their own recipes by hand and put any clippings or recipe cards into the pockets.
