When people are clearing out their houses (or their relatives' houses) sometimes we get their old cooking books. Occasionally we get their old recipes, the handwritten ones.
Usually they're tucked into old cooking books and when we find them that's where we leave them for the next people to discover.
Much less frequently we get a large cache of recipes, and in those instances we try to save them.
Unfortunately they're not something everyone sees value or worth in. We passed a lot onto other dealers at Tyabb who find interest in these sorts of things. Before though, we took photos of them, with the idea to present them here.
Most of them we'll try to have a single blog post to aid searching, but these presented below are the start, and the ones that aren't immediately apparent as to what they're about or recipes for.
Edit 2021: Originally begun as a 2020 lockdown project we realised with over 150 still to post in 2021 that it would take some time to get through all the recipes, so we have grouped some together in a single post under a specific recipe, and some under a common ingredient. We’d rather people be able to see them than them sitting in a folder on our computer.
