The country kitchen is an American icon. Everyone, whether they live in a log cabin or a luxury high-rise, strives to capture some of that warmth, flavor, fragrance, and feeling in their own kitchens. Martha Storey, country-living publisher for more than 17 years, draws on her own country roots and on the experience of Storey's many expert authors to help readers learn or relearn the time-honored skills of the American country kitchen and revisit the classics of down-home cooking.
In this chock-full-of-recipes cookbook, Martha shares her family's and friends' favorite tried-and-true country-cooking recipes. These are the simple dishes with country soul that make your mouth water. They are the church supper recipes that are never out of style and that will become the hand-me-down recipes you pass on to your children and grandchildren. In addition to providing these classic recipes, Martha covers the skills of the country kitchen. From woodstove to microwave, Martha shares tips and techniques for making cheese, preserving food, making sausage, pulling taffy, baking bread, and making pies and ice cream.
This heirloom cookbook, with old-fashioned and updated country techniques and know-how, is as complete as your great-grandmother's pantry!

"...full of intriguing, country recipes from our past (consider making you own goat cheese) and easy-to-read charts, as well as the satisfying rural cuisine that we have come to respect and love. I am eager to try Hibiscus Tea, Johnny Appleseed Cake, Crispy Fried Squash Blossoms, and the Zucchini Parmesan Jalapeno Flatbread. A great book for either a beginning or advanced cook." (Marcia Adams, Author of More Recipes From Quilt Country and Producer of PBS's Marcia Adams' Kitchen)
