It’s the season of special recipes!! What’s your favorite holiday or anytime recipe? I first look at recipes when they are published in the Press Journal and Farm Bureau spokesperson. The inspiration and deliverance of the same old (if I have the ingredients and the time) is really helpful to make the recipe sooner or later when I shopped.
Strawberry Point KITCHENS, by Florence Roe Wiggins, is packed with 400 great recipes. Included are background snippets of interesting stories that enhance this hard-bound cookbook of tried and tempting recipes.
You might be wondering who is (was) Florence Roe Wiggins. Florence, born in 1893, was the daughter of George and Ruby Hoag Roe. George was a photographer at Strawberry Point and their home was on the site of the Wilder Memorial Museum. Florence graduated from Oelwein High School and graduated from Coe College and Coe College Conservatory of Music in Cedar Rapids with a BS and BM. After two years teaching in Iowa, she married and moved to Laguna Beach, Southern California. Although she moved away from Strawberry Point, her love for Strawberry Point was evident in her books: Strawberry Point (1967) and Strawberry Point Kitchens (1971).
A favorite recipe is Monkey Bread (also known as Cobbler Bread) and it’s by no means new as it’s found in the KITCHENS at Strawberry Point – only you start it by making the dough first. homemade bread and not using frozen bread dough from the store. The similar recipes we use today are much more practical, of course, with the use of electric stoves, air fryers and microwaves, etc. without complaining!
Happy baking and candy making!
