| Aunt Maud's Recipe Book |
| From the Kitchen of Lucy Maud Montgomery |
| Elaine Crawford and Kelly Crawford |
Famous for her Anne of Green Gables and Emily stories, author
Lucy Maud Montgomery is less well-known for her love of
cooking and her talent in the kitchen.
Her original ledger, treasured in the family for generations was
passed down to Elaine Crawford and her daughter Kelly. Aunt
Maud's Recipe Book is a collection of the foods that
Montgomery served to her family and friends. Elaine and Kelly
have selected a wonderful range of family favorites from L.M.
Montgomery's original recipe ledger.
Included are menus such as "Afternoon Tea at the Manse",
"Growing up at Green Gables", and "Down Home Favourites".
From hearty dishes such as Pork Mock Duck, Third Try Beef
and Roast Goose to Marion's Orange Cake, Mrs.
MacPherson's Ginger Snaps and Lucy Maud Montgomery's son
Stuart's favourite, Mock Cherry Pie.
Recipes are interlaced with family anecdotes, photographs and
remembrances of Maud throughout her Norval years. Aunt
Maud's Recipe Book is a historical journey celebrating Canadian
cuisine in the early part of the 20th Century.
