Canadian Cook Books

I recently went to an exhibit on Canadian cook books at the national library. It was a great exhibit. I wrote down some of the cookbooks that looked interesting:

Canadian Cuisine: Natural foods and some mouth-waterings ways to prepare them. Ottawa: Canadian Government Travel Bureau 1966

Iroquois Foods and Food Preparation. Ottawa: Government 1916

The Culinary Historians of Ontario

Food Plants of Costal First Peoples. Nancy J. Turner.

Gathering What the Great Nature Provided: Food traditions of the Gitksan. By the people of ‘Ksan.

Foods of Spry’s Field. Urban Farm Museum Society. (See also here).

Also- a cookbook Colin liked: De la cremaillere a la table. Utensils de cuisine et d’atre, trois siecles d’artisanat. Catherine Armington 1986. Musee Stewart au fort de l’ile St. Helene.
