Cooking Down East: Favorite New England Recipes

An outstanding collection of hearty, down-home Maine recipes for everything from fish chowder to apple pie. Marjorie Standish was a long-running food columnist for the Maine Sunday Telegram who spent years gathering her own favorite dishes along with the best of her readers' suggestions. The result was this book, long a standard in Maine kitchens but out of print for years until now. "It's like opening a treasure to share a recipe," Standish writes. These are treasures that will endure long after the latest food fads have passed.
