This is not a genealogy topic of course, but connects in a way since recipes also travelled from the old country as "carry over" to the new with the emigrants. Some recipes fell maybe out of use and others not. Some recipes only exist as memories or remembered smells and tastes.
Last year I got a recipe book from MI with lots of recipes connected to the Italian food culture, recipes that still are used by the current generations. many of these seem really interesting and the recipe book is in frequent use. (Thanks Paula S.!)
How is it with the recipes and food culture that came with the emigrants from Finland and Scandinavia? Is it only "bulla/pulla", "Squeeky cheese", "köttbullar", "smörgåsbord", "fil/viili" and lutfisk from Norway?
What do you 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation emigrants remember and what recipes do you have and/or use of dishes, cakes, sweets, coffee bread, jams, bread, ... What stories are connected with the recipe?
If you come up with recipes and stories behind the recipe I will enter them on a dedicated recipe page on the SFHS' web page.
You can post the recipe here as part of the discussion or directly to me if you wish.
