America’s Favorite
Cookbook Ladies Discover Pennsylvania’s Favorite Recipes!
For more than 20 years, Gwen McKee and Barbara Moseley traveled from Maine to Hawaii in search of great recipes for their popular BEST OF THE BEST STATE COOKBOOK SERIES. Along the way the two Brandon, MS grandmothers, known as "the cookbook ladies," have chatted with cooks, book publishers, restaurant owners, church women, and Junior League members to find the true flavor of each state. In the process, they uncovered thousands of recipes and discovered that people across the nation share their passion for food. It took Gwen McKee and Barbara Moseley 22 years to collect the BEST recipes from the BEST cookbooks from every state. And now that the Best of the Best State Cookbooks Series covers the entire country, Gwen and Barbara are not resting—they are revisiting the states to continue the quest of preserving America's food heritage. With so many fine cookbooks published in Pennsylvania over the last two decades, they knew it was time for a revisit to the Keystone State. The first revised edition in the Series is Best of the Best from Pennsylvania Cookbook, which has just been released. The focus on the integrity of the food with everyday, doable recipes permeates this book. Over 350 recipes have been collected to capture the Pennsylvania’s marvelous cuisine. Ninety-nine of Pennsylvania's most popular cookbooks have been selected to contribute their favorite recipes to this remarkable collection. Each chosen recipe is a time-honored, proven favorite that typifies Pennsylvania cooking. There are outstanding recipes ranging from traditional to trendy, including the mysterious brew known as Groundhog Special. Others favorites include Crab Cakes with Herb Rémoulade from the City Tavern Cookbook, Sun-Dried Tomato Torta from The Reading Terminal Market® Cookbook, Soft Pretzels from The Best of Mennonite Fellowship Meals, Short-Cut Pepperoni Bread by Philadelphia Homestyle Cookbook, and many more. With more than 2 million copies sold, the BEST OF THE BEST STATE COOKBOOK SERIES is known nationwide as the definitive source for state and regional cooking. As such, inclusion in the Best of the Best Series is truly an honor for those Pennsylvania cookbooks selected to contribute recipes. Let these superb recipes from outstanding cookbooks invite you into delightful, delicious Pennsylvania.
