Commentary
Despite being a vintage culture enthusiast and lover of all things classic, collecting antiques, classic collectibles, or even vintage clothing has never been a serious hobby of mine, at least so far. One exception to this is old cookbooks. From small collections of recipes which came with a 1940s oven to an encyclopedia of Southern culinary techniques from the 1920s, I just love collecting and reading old cookbooks. Even if you don’t try to recreate any of the recipes, it’s a fascinating peek into the kitchen and dining rooms of our ancestors.
