Libro per gli appassionati della “Casa nella prateria”.

My only issue with the book is how it's printed and bound because I prefer cookbooks on better quality paper with a binding that can handle use in the kitchen. That said, it wasn't enough to make it 4 stars. Maybe 4.5, I rounded up. The recipes are well laid out with a lot of history. It makes an excellent tool of discussion and education with students who are reading the series or families who enjoy watching re-runs of the tv show. Some of the recipes don't adapt well to things you can easily get at the supermarket, but just reading those recipes is fun and modern cooks will find the difference in technique and ingredients very interesting. We are so used to being able to get so many alternative ingredients, to having 50 kinds of oil to choose from at the grocery store, that just the use of salt pork or bacon in so many common dishes is a good conversation. Being able to discuss cooking methods, economical measures, and working with what was available are all good things to explore with your children. I got it as a way of encouraging my daughter to read the original series. It's hard getting her interested in novels sometimes, but she loves cookbooks and historical recipes. Using it that way has worked, she's been slowly going through the series and enjoying it. Highly recommended for fans of the show or the books obviously, but also a good resource for people who enjoy reenacting history. Many of the recipes are accurate for the Civil War Era.

I grew up reading Little House on The Praire so I was excited when my niece showed interest in learning more about the serious. I would caution that this book is not for the common, everyday cook. Many of the recipes are from the days when shelf ingredients did not exist so my niece and I struggled to find some of the older items that were required in the recipe. However, the book did allow her to see how uncomplicated and process food once was and why it took so much time and love to create. It is a great book for the adventurous cook in your life. Just be prepared to substitute for some of the recipes.

J'aime beaucoup ce livre.Je n'ai pas encore traduit les textes et les recettes mais j'ai retrouvé toutes les recettes racontées dans la collections de "La petite maison dans la prairie" . Les illustrations dessinées par Garth Williams,c'était lui qui avait également illustré la série,rende nostalgique. Après la traduction je les testerai.Ce qui est bien c'est que ces recettes ne demandent pas beaucoup d'ingrédients ,ceux-ci sont faciles à trouver dans les épiceries anglaises,d'autres qu'on possède déjà dans ses réserves.Ce sont des ingrédients basiques Les cuissons sont plus rapides dans les fours actuels que dans les cuisinières au bois ou à charbon de nos grand-mères pour les plats. Et contrairement à ce que l'on pense,ils préparaient beaucoup de confiseries,(par exemple ; à base de maïs soufflés (pop-corn)). Je suis très contente d'avoir acheté ce livre!
