Old World
Recipes was organized in 1999 by a group of friends from various ethnic
backgrounds who wished to preserve the traditions and culinary secrets
passed-down through their families and friends for generations.
Meeting
several times each month, the group shared their memories and the stories
behind these delicacies in an effort to document them for posterity.
The goal was to honor those who taught the joy of cooking and preparing
great meals and to pass on these forgotten recipes to the newest generation of
cooks.
Recently, we decided to share our treasures with the world.
If, at times, the recipes and ingredients are not as exact as their
modern counterparts, we hope that you will forgive our style. We wanted to
remain true to the culinary artists who oftentimes did not measure ingredients
or write them down as accurately as we have become accustomed to when reading
modern cookbooks.
