Just Like Grandma Used to Make Counter Display (Hardcover)

At unsuspecting moments, the hankering comes upon us for comfort food the way only Grandma could make it. Unfortunately, in too many families, these cherished recipes went unrecorded, and are now lost forever.

In Just Like Grandma Used to Make, Lois Wyse -- whose "grandmother" books have sold some 750,000 copies -- recaptures the tastes we loved in a multiethnic collection of more than 170 time-tested recipes. From Arroz con Pollo, Sauerbraten, and Moussaka to Corn Pudding, Johnnycakes, and Sweet Potato Casserole; from Crab Cakes with Remoulade Sauce and Miso Soup to Spoon Bread and Front Yard Marmalade, these are dishes to be prepared with love -- and shared with family and friends.

Adapted for today's home cook, these dishes are rich in flavor and satisfaction -- and are the stuff family traditions and memories are made of. Adding spice and warmth to the mix are the stories that accompany the recipes, told in Lois's own distinctive voice. Just Like Grandma Used to Make is a unique cookbook, and a treasured gift for Mother's Day, Grandparents' Day, and all other occasions.
