Canadian cuisine is recognized the world over as a unique combination of fresh ingredients and a variety of cultural influences tempered by tradition. This third title in the Classic Canadian Cookbook Series highlights the origins of Canada's most beloved recipes, featuring dishes such as Gaspe Tourtiere (a traditional French-Canadian Christmas Eve dish), and Shediac Brown Bread (a molasses-based bread). Known as "the first truly Canadian cookbook," this faithful replica of the 1966 edition is a must for cooks anywhere.

An enduring Canadian classic.
About the Author
The Laura Secord Canadian Cook Book was a partnership between Laura Secord Candy Shops Ltd. and the Canadian Home Economics Association, an association that was formed in 1939 (and eventually disbanded in 2003). For this cookbook, members of the association were asked to send in recipes typical of their region, and over the course of a year, Sally Henry, Carol Taylor, and Lorraine Swirsky selected the recipes from the many submissions and wrote the text (Lorraine edited the French edition).

Essential cookbook in your collection,

This review is from: The Laura Secord Canadian Cook Book (Classic Canadian Cookbook Series) (Paperback)
I purchased this cookbook about 25 years ago. This book showed me how to make the perfect apple pie using brown sugar. It showed me how to make wonderful popovers and lemon bread which my family loves. My daughters use my well-worn edition for stuffing and sauce recipes. If you only have one cookbook, this should be the one!!!

The Best Cookbook in my Kitchen,

I was given this cookbook as a wedding gift eighteen years ago. It is worn out! Its a wonderful book for anyone who is Canadian and living elsewhere. The butter tart recipe is fantastic and the cake recipes are excellent. The photography is interesting, as well!

My Favorite Cookbook,
By Rowena Guzman (Concord, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Laura Secord Canadian Cook Book (Classic Canadian Cookbook Series) (Paperback)
I have an original edition, falling apart from 25 years of use, and am delighted to find it reprinted. This book taught me to cook from scratch and is my primary basic cookbook. I especially like the sections depicting various cuts of meat and fowl, with roasting guidelines, as well as preparation instructions for that venison or other game your hunter friend brings by. Recipes are easy to follow and they all taste good. The piecrust, biscuit, pancake, blueberry muffin and butter cake recipes are family staples and the recipe for pumpkin nut waffles alone is worth the price of this book.
