Reliable Recipes, published in 1923 by the Rector’s Guild of St. John’s Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, is a collection of family recipes from the members of the church. It was meant more to highlight unusual, delicious recipes from the congregation rather than a comprehensive compilation of every recipe ever, and in that aspect it accomplished its goal admirably.
An interesting tidbit is this was published during Prohibition, but the recipes still include regular alcoholic elements. A small note at the beginning of the book says to get non-alcoholic replacements at a grocery store.
This recipe comes to us from Reliable Recipes (1923), a collection of family recipes from the the Rector’s Guild of St. John’s Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. There’s tons of good recipes in here, and they seem easier to make than some other vintage ones so I’m determined to share as many of them as I can with y’all.
This is an interesting dessert from the 1920s, from a church recipe book called Reliable Recipes. It looks like it’d be fairly fast to make, though you do have to wait a bit for it to set up before frying the fritters. Would be good to have it prepped before dinner, and then fry it right before eating.
