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.
This week, we bring you a recipe that will make you one gallon of dandelion wine because guess what, it’s dandelion time. They’re out, and they won’t last long, so go get them while they’re hot! We have no idea what dandelion wine is good for, but maybe you can tell us what you do with it, if you do endeavour to make this springtime delight.
Our rediscovery of this book last year has inspired us to recirculate its recipes, by way of this newspaper, through the communities from which they first came to us.
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.
