Tales from Texas Tables: Recipes and More

This book tells about the roots of Texas cooking, where an unusual terrain of climate and cultures resulted in one of the most complex and delicious mixtures of foods in the world.

You’ll find recipes from old Texas cookbooks and unrecorded recipes passed down from one generation of Texans to another. Recipes include dill pickles, tea cakes, kolaches, German potato salad, poke salad, jumbo soup, chicken-fried steak, calabacitas, and chocolate fudge cake.

The recipes come in a convenient, spiral-bound book, with pages the size of recipe index cards.
