Bumping this post to request any additional ideas from others...

I just wanted to thank all three of you (Jensen, Kerry Beal, Badiane) for your kind and insightful responses to my query. You've given me quite a number of directions to pursue. I'll be eagerly awaiting adding to my cookbook collection the Staebler books you mentioned, Kerry. In addition, I also found reference to a somewhat obscure cookbook available for order from North Dakota University. If I have this link correct it is: http://www.lib.ndsu.nodak.edu/grhc/order/cookbooks/kant.htm Badine, in particular, your suggestion was especially appreciated, for there are indeed pointed differences in the styles... Your reference to that specific cookbook yields that it is: Mennonite Treasury Of Recipes Steinbach Committee 1960 Pub: Pandora Press Extra Information: Spiral Bound ISBN: 1550991329 Special thanks for that. Thanks also to Jensen for the reminder to seek closest to the actual source... her mom, grandmother, and local cookbooks. I will begin my research and collection and should I run into an impasse or have additional questions about specific recipes, I will holler out again! I'm so grateful and pleased to be a new part of this marvelously elite and sparkling community. -Pete

Greetings, new friends. In the hopes that I'm not posting this question in the wrong place, I'd like to ask if anyone knows resources specifically for regional prairie province Mennonite cooking. My girlfriend is from Sask... and will be eventually settling here, across the border in the US. I'd like to lean more of the unique Ukranian/Low German influences in Mennonite cooking and especially if that also includes some recipes. Any personal recipes, experience or resources are very much welcomed! Thank you. -Pete
