My husband is very proud of his Pennsylvania Dutch heritage and is constantly sharing it with me even though he has exported it to Georgia. I know he misses it very much so I though I could bring a little Dutch to Georgia for him , so I bought Betty Groff’s Pennsylvania Dutch Cookbook.
I have only made one recipe so far, Pot Pie and admittedly there was cook failure it being my first time and all but it was still a hit with my whole family. Pennsylvania Dutch pot pie is not what you are thinking. It is not a pastry shell filled with a thick meat stew but rather, imagine that pie all chopped up and mixed together. Basically you make squares of pastry and drop them into the, in this case, chicken stew.
Perhaps I am wrong but it is much like chicken in dumplings with flat noodles as opposed to dough balls.
It should be nice to have a Dutchmen help me out with the difference.
I was going to put a link to the Amazon store i bought my book from but it seems they are sold out of this particular book however I found some links to similar books that I intend to buy but thought I would share so you can check them out too.
