As part of an ongoing series, we are publishing one recipe every week from Pontiac County Recipes, a small book that is home to a collection of kitchen secrets from across the region, published by Pontiac Printshop in 1968.
Our recent rediscovery of this book has inspired us to recirculate its recipes, by way of this newspaper, through the communities from which they first came to us.
With rain and overcast skies in the forecast this week, you might be stuck inside with nothing to do. Why not make a sweet treat to enjoy with your friends and family, in the form of a coconut-lemon pie? These two flavours don’t usually team up, but the combination is worth a shot!
If you recognize a recipe from either your grandparents’ kitchen, or from your own, please write to us. We would love to hear about how these recipes have lived on.
