Cooking from Quilt Country

A celebration of the hearty, tradition-rooted cooking of Indiana's Amish and Mennonite communities, this cookbook by Marcia Adams explores the regional cuisine of America's rural Midwest through recipes drawn from quilt country kitchens. The book pairs home-style recipes with narrative context, reflecting the cultural and domestic traditions of plain-community life, and is aimed at the general home cook with an interest in both food and heritage. Its combination of culinary instruction and cultural documentation gives it a character that sits at the intersection of regional American cookbook and cultural record.
