Ancient Austrian cuisine

Brod Suppe

Ok, slightly misleading title but you can imagine just how unique it was to leaf through this hand-written cookbook, authored by my friends great grandmother. Dating back to 1912 its yellowed pages were filled with dishes designed to feed many. There are no quantities, just processes.

Reading through

If only I could read old German, I would have liked to try a few of these out.
