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.
As Christmas approaches and the holiday baking season is entering full swing, this week we are featuring a pair of easy recipes for your (possibly drunken) holiday get-togethers. Grunt is a dessert made with sweet biscuits dropped into a fruit sauce, and baked in the oven. It’s sure to tickle your fancy.
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.
