The Horsford Cook-Book is a circa 1877 pamphlet from the Rumford Chemical Works, and advertising Horsford Acid Phosphate. “Containing practical recipes for making superior bread, biscuit, cakes, pastry, &c.” (Jerry Stratton)
- Rumford Recipes for Cake and Cookie Making, Biscuits, Muffins, Rolls, Etc. (paperback)
-
A print copy of the recipes featured in the two Rumford recipe sliders, combining Cake and Cooking Making with Biscuits, Muffins, Rolls, Etc.
One of the most interesting experiments in early twentieth century promotional baking pamphlets is this pair of sliding recipe cards from Rumford.
I’m going to start producing facsimiles of some of the vintage cookbooks I’m covering here, because some of them are wonderful, and also because it’s easier to read them in a larger format.
