THE mid-century palette was vastly different than it is today. Much of what we find advertised in vintage cookbooks and magazines seems nauseating by today’s standards. I’m sure the same will be true of our current tastes when viewed fifty years from now. This gastronomic sea change certainly makes for an interesting browse through recipes and food adverts from yesteryear. Here are a few exceptionally foul examples...

Here are two recipes for a stove top meatloaf dinner - it's so easy to make, it doesn't even need to be cooked in the oven.
Every family has their own Christmas traditions, and chances are, they include some much-loved recipes. However, for every delicious pie there is that dreaded fruit cake or failed potato salad that…
Did you guys know that Halloween used to be much more of a baking holiday than it is today? Today, we're sharing a collection of vintage Halloween recipes from cookbooks, recipe booklets, advertisements, magazines, grocery store flyers, newsletters, and various other sources. Try to spot any recipes that you might remember from Halloweens past.
Welcome back to another week of food from behind the scenes of Astronauts Wives Club!!! Episode 9 is crazy with vintage food. So much food, in fact, that I have to split Episode 9 into two parts so it all fits! So, enjoy a meatloaf moon and a rocket ship cake, and come back soon […]
We'll Eat Again [reprinted recipes from 1940's] Phew! Sorry about that break, but the kitchen of Time Travel Kitchen is now both larger, and closer to willing victims. HOORAY. I promised you goose, didn't I? I did. And you, poor things, have been waiting with bated breath. Wait no longer! "Man-about-Kitchen" Now that thousands of wives and mothers are helping in the factories, or evacuated to the country, many men are having to do their own cooking. No wonder they ask their women-folk for easy recipes! Here are a few suggestions. [Well, one.] Mock Goose Cooking time: 1 hour Quantity: 4 helpings 1 1/2 lb. potatoes 2 large cooking apples 4 oz. cheese 1/2 teaspoon dried sage salt and pepper 3/4 pint vegetable stock 1 tablespoon flour Method: Scrub and slice potatoes thinly, slice apples, grate cheese. Grease a fireproof dish, place a layer of potatoes in it, cover with apple and a little sage, season lightly and sprinkle with cheese, repeat layers leaving potatoes and cheese to cover. Pour in 1/2 pint of the stock, cook in a moderate oven for 3/4 of an hour. Blend flour with remainder of stock, pour into dish and cook for another 1/4 of an hour. Serve as a main dish with a green vegetable. Dig for your dinner When salvage is all that remains of the joint And there isn't a tin and you haven't a 'point' Instead of creating a dance and a ballad Just raid the allotment and dig up a salad! Beetroot Pudding Here is a new notion for using the sweetness of beetroot to make a nice sweet pudding with very little sugar. First mix 6 oz wheatmeal flour with 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. Rub in 1/2 oz fat and add 1 oz sugar and 4 oz cooked or raw beetroot very finely grated. Now mix all the ingredients to a soft cake consistency with 3 or 4 tablespoons of milk. Add a few drops of flavouring essence if you have it. Turn the mixture into a greased pie dish or square tin and bake immediately in a moderate oven for 35-40 minutes. This pudding tastes equally good hot or cold. Enough for 4. Reflect, whenever you indulge It is not beautiful to bulge A large, untidy corporation Is far from helpful to the Nation. Mock Whipped Cream 1/2 oz cornflour [cornstarch] 1/4 pint milk 1 1/2 oz margarine 3 teaspoons sugar few drops vanilla essence Method: Mix cornflour to a paste with a little milk, heat remainder and when boiling add to the blended cornflour, stirring well. Return to saucepan bring to boil and cook 3 minutes. Cream the margarine and sugar. Whisk in the cornflour mixture gradually. Add vanilla essence. *** Verdict: Mock Goose: In... in what manner is this a goose? The duck, the duck I could see. It looks sort of ducky, and there's meat. This? This is a DANG POTATO CASSEROLE. It wasn't cooked for long enough, so it was still kind of crunchy, and the vegetable broth did not thicken in any way. It was more like wet potato discs with oddly flavored apples and surprising tiny globlets of soggy cheese. Were it cooked for longer, the vegetable broth thickened, and more herbs added, this would probably be fine. Troll your vegetarian friends. Invite them over for dinner. When they arrive, tell them you made goose. Hilarity cannot fail to ensue. Beetroot Pudding: Gahhh. I am undecided on this one. A list must happen. Good: *Beets are pretty sweet, so this actually sort of worked as far as sweetness goes. *It's pink! *It's really good for you Bad: *It was gritty. Like sand. And I like whole wheat. *A shred of beet got stuck in my teeth. *It's density is similar to that of brick. *It's really good for you. I will have to revisit this one, and see if it can be improved on. What made it quite palatable was the- Mock Whipped Cream: Mmmmm. If you think about it, this recipe actually makes mathematical sense. Given that: Cream = Milk + Butterfat Butter ≈ Margarine Therefore: Margarine + Milk ≈ Cream Ta da! With the addition of some cornstarch, sugar, and vanilla, a reasonable approximation of whipped cream can be made. It's more like a pastry cream than whipped cream, but let us not quibble. A sweet, creamy topping can be made. Let he who is without Kool Whip among you cast the first stone. Besides, it helps the sandy pink beet grit slide down much easier. *** Bonus propaganda! Have you wondered how much soy flour is needed to make a loaf big enough to fill Red Square? Wonder no longer.

Hello and welcome to week one of the Vintage Housewife Sew Along Today we are doing the Baking Block If you have not downloaded the Sew Along Guide PDF CLICK HERE so that you can "Bee Prepared" My blog post telling you all about the guide and how to use it was 3 weeks ago... if you need to refer back to it CLICK HERE ***NOTE*** When this sew along is over... I'll add a list of links at the bottom of this post to each week's tutorials. Just scroll down and click on each one that you would like to read! I'm sew excited to be using my brand new collection called Vintage Happy 2!! And my latest set of Sew Simple Shapes: Vintage Housewife We will be making the Vintage Housewife Quilt 74" x 82" For week one of my Sew Simple Shapes Sew Alongs Cindy and I always do a video and I show you how to lay out your first block and how to do the bias tape strips. CLICK HERE to watch the video!! If this is your first sew along with my applique method... just know that once your block is ready for applique... feel free to do your applique on your machine or by hand. When I applique by machine I use a tiny zig-zag stitch and I match my thread to each applique piece. When I do it by hand I also match the thread to my appliqués. If you need a refresher on how I do it by hand CLICK HERE to watch my hand applique video during my previous sew along for my Granny's Garden Quilt. Hopefully you have followed the Sew Along Guide cutting instructions and have your kit for the Baking Block all ready to go! Just as a reminder here are all of the Sew Simple Shapes that you will need for this block: J-6 J-7 J-8 J-10 J-19 Straight Bias Strips Needed *From the Coral Gingham you will need 2 - 1/4" prepared that measure 10 1/4" long after pressing each end under to tuck behind the oven sides. *From the Vivid Stripe you will need 1 - 1/4" prepared that measures 5 1/4" long after pressing each end under to tuck behind the pyrex dish. *Also prepare one that is 3/4" long after ends are tucked under. Use this for the lid. *From the Cayenne Clothespins you will need 2 - 1/2" prepared that each measure 6" long after the ends are pressed under. Use these for the oven handles. For the stove itself you will need to use your ruler and draw a 8 1/2" x 10" onto the Sew-In Interfacing and then pair it up with the fabric and sew directly on the line... just like you do with the Sew Simple Shapes. Be sure to follow the special instructions that I showed you in the video when making your Pyrex shape. After you have sewn everything it's time to shape and turn! I covered the trimming and clipping cleavage as well as shaping in the video for you:) After you have your shapes prepared... do a quick satin stitch for the clock hands before you glue baste. I used 3 strands of the red in my Bee Basics Aurifloss Box. If you want to watch me do embroidery stitches... CLICK HERE to watch my Farm Sweet Farm Sew Along video Now you can go ahead and layout your block for glue basting just like I showed you in the video. YaY! I used 5 of the largest size in the package of my Barn Door Cute Little Buttons collection. I also used the tiny size for the clock center. But before you sew them on you will need to trim your block. You may also choose waiting to sew your buttons on until after quilting. This is what your block should look like before buttons... And before borders! It's sew cute! For each block you will need 2 - 1 1/2" x 12 1/2" border strips for each side. You will also need 2 -1 1/2" x 14 1/2" border strips for the top and the bottom. Cutting for these strips is in the Sew Along Guide as well. When I trim my blocks I first use the lines on the ruler to completely center my design. Because I am right handed I trim the right side and top first... Then I rotate my block and trim the remaining two sides. If you are left handed just do the opposite! My Baking Block is all trimmed... Cute Little Buttons are sewn on and it's time to add the borders:) I sew the side borders first and then add the top and bottom borders. I press towards the borders. You will do the same borders for all of the 8 square blocks as we go along each week:) YaY again! My Baking Block is completed and I sure do love it! I hope that you will have fun making yours:) Because I mentioned Chicken Casserole in the video... I thought I would share my Grandma's recipe with you. Millie's Chicken Casserole 2 Tablespoons butter 1 medium onion diced 1 cup celery diced 1 cup cooked carrots diced 1 cup cooked chicken diced 1 can cream of mushroom soup 1 cup rice cooked 3/4 cup mayonnaise 1 teaspoon lemon juice salt and pepper to taste 3/4 cup crushed Ritz Crackers In a skillet over medium heat, cook onion and celery in the butter until tender. Mix all ingredients together except the crackers. Place in a 2 quart 'buttered' baking dish. Sprinkle crushed crackers over top. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes Serves 6 I hope you enjoy this vintage recipe... you may want to add a jello salad on the menu for a true vintage housewife style meal:) The block tutorial schedule is in the Sew Along Guide and next week we will be be right back in the kitchen doing some canning! Please follow me on INSTAGRAM if you would like to see what new things I am working on and all things Vintage Happy 2 Be sure to use the hashtag #VintageHousewifeSewAlong when posting about your progress during this sew along:) Because this quilt is all about the Vintage Housewife...
