TIS THE COVID SEASON TO COLLECT HERITAGE RECIPES INTO A BOOK TO GIFT YOUR FAMILY

It seems that time off due to Covid-19 crisis has resulted in many of us gaining a few pounds as we try the recipes that we bookmarked in cookbooks, ripped out of magazines, and begged friends for after tasting them at parties. All well and good.

Several of my friends are attempting to make the free food they have picked up at giveaways into interesting meals.  A little this - a little that.

May I suggest that this is an excellent time to collect heritage recipes for your family history book or a special genealogy supplement.

I suggest that you ask each of your relatives for a recipe they are famous for or love and put it in a collection for distribution just among the family.  Add a photo of the person and any comments they might make such as memories of a meal that included that dish, when they first made it, or who best loves the meal.  Perhaps a traditional recipe from one's native country has been adapted to be vegetarian?
