Mrs. Witty's Home-Style Menu Cookbook

From a three-time winner of the prestigious Tastemaker Award, Mrs. Witty's Homestyle Menu Cookbook is a journey to the classic dishes of our past, and to our culinary roots.

These are the dishes Grandma made-only better. Discover 40 menus, including one for the meal of meals, a traditional Thanksgiving, and over 150 skillfully written recipes. Pristine Pot Roast with Gravy. Christmas Eve Oyster Stew. Nantucket Corn Pudding, Scalloped Scallops, Yankee Baked Beans, Stuffed Pork Chops. And for dessert, Plum Velvet, Raspberry Rhubarb Parfait, and Out of the Icebox Cake.

In her chatty but information-filled style, Mrs. Witty embellishes each recipe with inside tips, strong opinions, and charming reminiscences.
