8. A Vintage Recipe

Be sure to check out our vintage recipe archive online at:http:/
bit.ly/1vDXn6h.  Over 1200 wonderful vintage recipes are listed.

Two weeks ago, Darlene F requested a jello recipe called Avocado Jello.  We
received six recipes and posted them last week.  Darlene wanted to thank all
those who contributed: "Please thank all the readers who provided me (as well
as anyone interested in) Avocado Jello Recipes.  I'm sure I'll find the right
one in this group.  And in the meantime, I'll have fun experimenting with
these recipes with my Mom (an Oregon transplant from California).  So again,
many thanks.Darlene F., Oregon"

Last week Grace S of Salt Lake City, UT  requested a vintage recipe for a
three layered angel food cake that had a whipped coffee flavored icing.  We
had one response from WFH from Denham Springs, LA:

"Could not find a cake with the coffee icing, but did find this recipe for
coffee icing.  Hope it helps-found it in the 1932 Rumford Complete Cookbook
(always collecting old books) 1/2 cup strong clear coffee;
2 cups granulated sugar;
2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
Cook the coffee and sugar together until (probably medium heat)a little
dropped in cold water forms a soft ball.  Cool, and add the vanilla extract
and beat until stiff enough to spread.  Yum"

*Note - the recipes are submitted by fellow Collectors Newsletter
readers and are not checked for accuracy or tested by the TIAS staff. Keep in
mind that many of these recipes were created at a time when there were no
worries about such things as raw eggs, for example - so modern kitchen safety
should prevail.

9. As with collectibles, people also have very strong feelings about foods
from their past.  Sometimes these special recipes get lost. This section is to
help people who are looking for lost recipes from their past.  If you submit a
request, please include the geographical region where you tasted the recipe.


If you have a vintage recipe request send it to recipes@tias.com and we might
just publish it here.

TIAS.com merchants have well over 4,000 cookbooks for sale! You can
see them here: http://www.tias.com/books/cooking/
