''A Book of Dorcas Dishes'' is a cookbook that was originally published in 1911 and features a collection of family recipes contributed by members of the Dorcas Society of Hollis and Buxton. The Dorcas Society was a group of women who were dedicated to charitable work and community service, and this cookbook was created as a fundraiser for their organization. The recipes in the book are organized by category, including soups, fish, meats, vegetables, salads, desserts, and more. Each recipe includes a list of ingredients and detailed instructions for preparation. The book also includes helpful tips and advice for cooking and entertaining, as well as a brief history of the Dorcas Society and its mission. This cookbook is a charming glimpse into the culinary traditions of early 20th-century New England, and a testament to the enduring legacy of community service and charitable work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
