+ PROVEN RECIPES FOR TRADITIONAL
+ PENNSYLVANIA Dutch FOODS

+
+PENNSYLVANIA Dutch COOKERY
+
+
+In 1683 the Plain Sects began to arrive in William Penn’s Colony seeking
+a land of peace and plenty. They were a mixed people; Moravians from
+Bohemia and Moravia, Mennonites from Switzerland and Holland, the Amish,
+the Dunkards, the Schwenkfelds, and the French Huguenots. After the lean
+years of clearing the land and developing their farms they established
+the peace and plenty they sought. These German-speaking people were
+originally called the Pennsylvania Deutsch but time and custom have
+caused them to be known to us as the Pennsylvania Dutch.
+
+The Pennsylvania Dutch are a hard working people and as they say, “Them
+that works hard, eats hearty.” The blending of recipes from their many
+home lands and the ingredients available in their new land produced
+tasty dishes that have been handed down from mother to daughter for
+generations. Their cooking was truly a folk art requiring much intuitive
+knowledge, for recipes contained measurements such as “flour to
+stiffen,” “butter the size of a walnut,” and “large as an apple.” Many
+of the recipes have been made more exact and standardized providing us
+with a regional cookery we can all enjoy.
+
+Soups are a traditional part of Pennsylvania Dutch cooking and the Dutch
+housewife can apparently make soup out of anything. If she has only milk
+and flour she can still make rivel soup. However, most of their soups
+are sturdier dishes, hearty enough to serve as the major portion of the
+evening meal. One of the favorite summer soups in the Pennsylvania Dutch
+country is Chicken Corn Soup. Few Sunday School picnic suppers would be
+considered complete without gallons of this hearty soup.
+
+Many of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods are a part of their folklore. No
+Shrove Tuesday would be complete without raised doughnuts called
+“fastnachts.” One of the many folk tales traces this custom back to the
+burnt offerings made by their old country ancestors to the goddess of
+spring. With the coming of Christianity the custom became associated
+with the Easter season and “fastnachts” are eaten on Shrove Tuesday to
+insure living to next Shrove Tuesday. Young dandelion greens are eaten
+on Maundy Thursday in order to remain well throughout the year.
+
+The Christmas season is one of the busiest times in the Pennsylvania
+Dutch kitchen. For weeks before Christmas the house is filled with the
+smell of almond cookies, anise cookies, sandtarts, Belsnickle Christmas
+cookies, walnut kisses, pfeffernusse, and other traditional cookies. Not
+just a few of one kind but dozens and dozens of many kinds of cookies
+must be made. There must be plenty for the enjoyment of the family and
+many holiday visitors.
+
+Regardless of the time of the year or the time of the day there are
+pies. The Pennsylvania Dutch eat pies for breakfast. They eat pies for
+lunch. They eat pies for dinner and they eat pies for midnight snacks.
+Pies are made with a great variety of ingredients from the apple pie we
+all know to the rivel pie which is made from flour, sugar, and butter.
+The Dutch housewife is as generous with her pies as she is with all her
+cooking, baking six or eight at a time not one and two.
+
+The apple is an important Pennsylvania Dutch food. Dried apples form the
+basis for many typical dishes. Each fall barrels of apples are converted
+into cider. Apple butter is one of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods which
+has found national acceptance. The making of apple butter is an all-day
+affair and has the air of a holiday to it. Early in the morning the
+neighbors gather and begin to peel huge piles of apples that will be
+needed. Soon the great copper apple butter kettle is brought out and set
+up over a wood fire. Apple butter requires constant stirring to prevent
+burning. However, stirring can be light work for a boy and a girl when
+they’re young and the day is bright and the world is full of promise. By
+dusk the apple butter is made, neighborhood news is brought up to date
+and hunger has been driven that much further away for the coming winter.
+
+Food is abundant and appetites are hearty in the Pennsylvania Dutch
+country. The traditional dishes are relatively simple and unlike most
+regional cookery the ingredients are readily available. Best of all, no
+matter who makes them the results are “wonderful good.”

+Soups
+
+
+PHILADELPHIA PEPPER POT
+
+ 1 lb. honeycomb tripe
+ 1 veal knuckle
+ 1½ qts. water
+ 2 tablespoons salt
+ 1 tblsp. red pepper, diced
+ 1 tblsp. green pepper, diced
+ 1 tablespoon powdered thyme
+ 6 peppercorns
+ 4 potatoes, diced
+ 2 bay leaves
+ 3 whole cloves
+ 3 tablespoons chopped parsley
+ 2 stalks celery, diced
+ 2 carrots, diced
+ 2 tomatoes, peeled, cut up
+ 4 onions, thinly sliced
+ 1 piece pimento, cut fine
+
+Wash and scrub tripe thoroughly. Place in large kettle and cover with
+plenty of cold water. Bring to a boil and simmer until tender. Simmer
+without boiling, that is the secret of making tripe tender. Drain and
+dice, ½ inch squares. In the meantime place the veal knuckle in
+another kettle adding 1½ qts. of water and all ingredients except the
+potatoes. Simmer at least one hour, put in potatoes and simmer for
+another hour or until meat falls off the bone. Remove bone and take off
+all the meat. Cut it into small pieces and together with the tripe put
+it back into the soup. Bring to a boil and the soup is ready to serve.
+This soup keeps well and can be reheated.
+
+
+DUMPLINGS (Spaetzle)
+
+ 1 cup milk
+ 2 cups flour
+ 2 eggs
+ 1 tsp. salt
+
+Add milk to flour slowly, stirring constantly to keep mixture smooth.
+Add 1 egg at a time, beating well after each addition. Salt and mix
+well. When cooking in boiling salted water or meat broth, pour the
+batter from a shallow bowl, tilting it over the boiling kettle. With a
+sharp knife slice off pieces of the batter into the boiling liquid. Dip
+knife in the liquid before each cut to prevent sticking.
+
+
+CORN CHOWDER
+

+ 2 tblsp. onion, minced
+ 1 tblsp. celery, minced
+ 1 tblsp. pepper, minced
+ 2 cups corn

+ salt
+ pepper
+
+Dice the bacon and put into pan to brown, add onion, celery and pepper;
+fry until bacon is crisp. Add the corn and saute together for 3 minutes.
+Add the potatoes, tomatoes and seasoning, cover and simmer for 30
+minutes. Finally add the milk, heat to the boiling point and serve with
+a little chopped parsley.
+
+
+EGG NOODLES
+
+ 2 eggs
+ ½ tsp. salt
+ sifted flour
+
+Add salt to the eggs and work in enough flour to make a stiff dough.
+Knead thoroughly, divide into 2 portions and roll each out as thin as
+possible, on a floured board. Cover with cloth and let stand until
+partly dry. Roll up the dough and cut into ¼ inch strips. Spread out
+on paper to dry a little longer.
+
+

+
+ 1 lb. soup beans
+ 1 ham bone
+ ½ cup chopped onion
+ 1 cup diced celery
+ 1 can tomato sauce
+ ½ cup diced potatoes
+ 2 tsp. minced parsley
+ salt and pepper
+
+Soak beans in water overnight. Drain, add fresh water and cook slowly
+with the ham bone for 2 hours. Put in the onion, celery, potatoes,
+tomato sauce, parsley and the salt and pepper and simmer until
+vegetables are soft. Remove the ham bone, trim off any meat, cut it up
+and add to soup. Many Pennsylvania Dutch cooks cut up hard boiled eggs
+and add them to the soup.
+
+
+SPLIT PEA SOUP
+
+ 1 lb. split peas
+ 3 qts. water
+ 1 ham bone
+ salt
+ 2 carrots, sliced
+ 1 stalk celery, chopped
+ 1 large onion, chopped

+hours or until mixture is thick. Remove ham bone, force peas through
+coarse sieve and season to taste. Dilute with milk. Serve with toasted
+croutons.
+
+
+VEGETABLE SOUP
+
+ 1 soup bone
+ 2 lbs. stewing beef
+ 2 qts. water
+ 1 cup chopped onion
+ 1 cup chopped celery
+ 1 cup tomatoes
+ 2 tsp. salt
+ black pepper
+
+Into 2 qts. of water put soup bone and beef and boil for 2 hours. For a
+hearty, substantial soup, cut up the meat in small pieces and return to
+the broth. Add tomatoes, onions and celery. Also add other available
+vegetables, such as diced potatoes, carrots, turnip, string beans, corn,
+peas, cabbage or chopped peppers. Boil until all vegetables are tender.
+
+
+MEAT FILLING _for_ NOODLES
+
+ 1 cup ground beef
+ 2 tblsp. fat
+ 1 small onion

+
+PENNSYLVANIA Dutch COOKERY
+
+
+In 1683 the Plain Sects began to arrive in William Penn's Colony seeking
+a land of peace and plenty. They were a mixed people; Moravians from
+Bohemia and Moravia, Mennonites from Switzerland and Holland, the Amish,
+the Dunkards, the Schwenkfelds, and the French Huguenots. After the lean
+years of clearing the land and developing their farms they established
+the peace and plenty they sought. These German-speaking people were
+originally called the Pennsylvania Deutsch but time and custom have
+caused them to be known to us as the Pennsylvania Dutch.
+
+The Pennsylvania Dutch are a hard working people and as they say, "Them
+that works hard, eats hearty." The blending of recipes from their many
+home lands and the ingredients available in their new land produced
+tasty dishes that have been handed down from mother to daughter for
+generations. Their cooking was truly a folk art requiring much intuitive
+knowledge, for recipes contained measurements such as "flour to
+stiffen," "butter the size of a walnut," and "large as an apple." Many
+of the recipes have been made more exact and standardized providing us
+with a regional cookery we can all enjoy.
+
+Soups are a traditional part of Pennsylvania Dutch cooking and the Dutch
+housewife can apparently make soup out of anything. If she has only milk
+and flour she can still make rivel soup. However, most of their soups
+are sturdier dishes, hearty enough to serve as the major portion of the
+evening meal. One of the favorite summer soups in the Pennsylvania Dutch
+country is Chicken Corn Soup. Few Sunday School picnic suppers would be
+considered complete without gallons of this hearty soup.
+
+Many of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods are a part of their folklore. No
+Shrove Tuesday would be complete without raised doughnuts called
+"fastnachts." One of the many folk tales traces this custom back to the
+burnt offerings made by their old country ancestors to the goddess of
+spring. With the coming of Christianity the custom became associated
+with the Easter season and "fastnachts" are eaten on Shrove Tuesday to
+insure living to next Shrove Tuesday. Young dandelion greens are eaten
+on Maundy Thursday in order to remain well throughout the year.
+
+The Christmas season is one of the busiest times in the Pennsylvania
+Dutch kitchen. For weeks before Christmas the house is filled with the
+smell of almond cookies, anise cookies, sandtarts, Belsnickle Christmas
+cookies, walnut kisses, pfeffernusse, and other traditional cookies. Not
+just a few of one kind but dozens and dozens of many kinds of cookies
+must be made. There must be plenty for the enjoyment of the family and
+many holiday visitors.
+
+Regardless of the time of the year or the time of the day there are
+pies. The Pennsylvania Dutch eat pies for breakfast. They eat pies for
+lunch. They eat pies for dinner and they eat pies for midnight snacks.
+Pies are made with a great variety of ingredients from the apple pie we
+all know to the rivel pie which is made from flour, sugar, and butter.
+The Dutch housewife is as generous with her pies as she is with all her
+cooking, baking six or eight at a time not one and two.
+
+The apple is an important Pennsylvania Dutch food. Dried apples form the
+basis for many typical dishes. Each fall barrels of apples are converted
+into cider. Apple butter is one of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods which
+has found national acceptance. The making of apple butter is an all-day
+affair and has the air of a holiday to it. Early in the morning the
+neighbors gather and begin to peel huge piles of apples that will be
+needed. Soon the great copper apple butter kettle is brought out and set
+up over a wood fire. Apple butter requires constant stirring to prevent
+burning. However, stirring can be light work for a boy and a girl when
+they're young and the day is bright and the world is full of promise. By
+dusk the apple butter is made, neighborhood news is brought up to date
+and hunger has been driven that much further away for the coming winter.
+
+Food is abundant and appetites are hearty in the Pennsylvania Dutch
+country. The traditional dishes are relatively simple and unlike most
+regional cookery the ingredients are readily available. Best of all, no
+matter who makes them the results are "wonderful good."

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we

+ <h2 id="preface_title">PENNSYLVANIA <span class="fancy">Dutch</span> COOKERY</h2>
+
+ <p class="first_paragraph"><span class="first_word">In</span> 1683 the Plain Sects began to arrive in William Penn’s Colony seeking
+ a land of peace and plenty. They were a mixed people; Moravians from
+ Bohemia and Moravia, Mennonites from Switzerland and Holland, the
+ Amish, the Dunkards, the Schwenkfelds, and the French Huguenots. After
+ the lean years of clearing the land and developing their farms they established
+ the peace and plenty they sought. These German-speaking people were
+ originally called the Pennsylvania Deutsch but time and custom have caused
+ them to be known to us as the Pennsylvania Dutch.</p>
+
+ <p>The Pennsylvania Dutch are a hard working people and as they say,
+ “Them that works hard, eats hearty.” The blending of recipes from their
+ many home lands and the ingredients available in their new land produced
+ tasty dishes that have been handed down from mother to daughter for
+ generations. Their cooking was truly a folk art requiring much intuitive
+ knowledge, for recipes contained measurements such as “flour to stiffen,”
+ “butter the size of a walnut,” and “large as an apple.” Many of the recipes
+ have been made more exact and standardized providing us with a regional
+ cookery we can all enjoy.</p>
+
+ <p>Soups are a traditional part of Pennsylvania Dutch cooking and the Dutch
+ housewife can apparently make soup out of anything. If she has only milk
+ and flour she can still make rivel soup. However, most of their soups are
+ sturdier dishes, hearty enough to serve as the major portion of the evening
+ meal. One of the favorite summer soups in the Pennsylvania Dutch country
+ is Chicken Corn Soup. Few Sunday School picnic suppers would be considered
+ complete without gallons of this hearty soup.</p>
+
+ <p><a class="pagenum" id="page3" title="3"> </a>Many of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods are a part of their folklore. No
+ Shrove Tuesday would be complete without raised doughnuts called
+ “fastnachts.” One of the many folk tales traces this custom back to the
+ burnt offerings made by their old country ancestors to the goddess of spring.
+ With the coming of Christianity the custom became associated with the
+ Easter season and “fastnachts” are eaten on Shrove Tuesday to insure living
+ to next Shrove Tuesday. Young dandelion greens are eaten on Maundy
+ Thursday in order to remain well throughout the year.</p>
+
+ <p>The Christmas season is one of the busiest times in the Pennsylvania
+ Dutch kitchen. For weeks before Christmas the house is filled with the
+ smell of almond cookies, anise cookies, sandtarts, Belsnickle Christmas
+ cookies, walnut kisses, pfeffernusse, and other traditional cookies. Not just
+ a few of one kind but dozens and dozens of many kinds of cookies must be
+ made. There must be plenty for the enjoyment of the family and many
+ holiday visitors.</p>
+
+ <p>Regardless of the time of the year or the time of the day there are pies.
+ The Pennsylvania Dutch eat pies for breakfast. They eat pies for lunch.
+ They eat pies for dinner and they eat pies for midnight snacks. Pies are
+ made with a great variety of ingredients from the apple pie we all know to
+ the rivel pie which is made from flour, sugar, and butter. The Dutch housewife
+ is as generous with her pies as she is with all her cooking, baking six
+ or eight at a time not one and two.</p>
+
+ <p>The apple is an important Pennsylvania Dutch food. Dried apples form
+ the basis for many typical dishes. Each fall barrels of apples are converted
+ into cider. Apple butter is one of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods which has
+ found national acceptance. The making of apple butter is an all-day affair
+ and has the air of a holiday to it. Early in the morning the neighbors gather
+ and begin to peel huge piles of apples that will be needed. Soon the great
+ copper apple butter kettle is brought out and set up over a wood fire. Apple
+ butter requires constant stirring to prevent burning. However, stirring can
+ be light work for a boy and a girl when they’re young and the day is bright
+ and the world is full of promise. By dusk the apple butter is made, neighborhood
+ news is brought up to date and hunger has been driven that much
+ further away for the coming winter.</p>
+
+ <p>Food is abundant and appetites are hearty in the Pennsylvania Dutch
+ country. The traditional dishes are relatively simple and unlike most regional
+ cookery the ingredients are readily available. Best of all, no matter who
+ makes them the results are “wonderful good.”</p>

+
+1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm

+
+1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works

+works. See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the

+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.

+1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than

+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works

+ Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments
+ must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+ prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+ returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and

+ the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+ you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+ does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+ License. You must require such a user to return or
+ destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+ and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+ Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+ money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+ electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+ of receipt of the work.

+
+1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm

+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+

+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+PENNSYLVANIA Dutch COOKERY
+
+
+In 1683 the Plain Sects began to arrive in William Penn's Colony seeking
+a land of peace and plenty. They were a mixed people; Moravians from
+Bohemia and Moravia, Mennonites from Switzerland and Holland, the Amish,
+the Dunkards, the Schwenkfelds, and the French Huguenots. After the lean
+years of clearing the land and developing their farms they established
+the peace and plenty they sought. These German-speaking people were
+originally called the Pennsylvania Deutsch but time and custom have
+caused them to be known to us as the Pennsylvania Dutch.
+
+The Pennsylvania Dutch are a hard working people and as they say, "Them
+that works hard, eats hearty." The blending of recipes from their many
+home lands and the ingredients available in their new land produced
+tasty dishes that have been handed down from mother to daughter for
+generations. Their cooking was truly a folk art requiring much intuitive
+knowledge, for recipes contained measurements such as "flour to
+stiffen," "butter the size of a walnut," and "large as an apple." Many
+of the recipes have been made more exact and standardized providing us
+with a regional cookery we can all enjoy.
+
+Soups are a traditional part of Pennsylvania Dutch cooking and the Dutch
+housewife can apparently make soup out of anything. If she has only milk
+and flour she can still make rivel soup. However, most of their soups
+are sturdier dishes, hearty enough to serve as the major portion of the
+evening meal. One of the favorite summer soups in the Pennsylvania Dutch
+country is Chicken Corn Soup. Few Sunday School picnic suppers would be
+considered complete without gallons of this hearty soup.
+
+Many of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods are a part of their folklore. No
+Shrove Tuesday would be complete without raised doughnuts called
+"fastnachts." One of the many folk tales traces this custom back to the
+burnt offerings made by their old country ancestors to the goddess of
+spring. With the coming of Christianity the custom became associated
+with the Easter season and "fastnachts" are eaten on Shrove Tuesday to
+insure living to next Shrove Tuesday. Young dandelion greens are eaten
+on Maundy Thursday in order to remain well throughout the year.
+
+The Christmas season is one of the busiest times in the Pennsylvania
+Dutch kitchen. For weeks before Christmas the house is filled with the
+smell of almond cookies, anise cookies, sandtarts, Belsnickle Christmas
+cookies, walnut kisses, pfeffernusse, and other traditional cookies. Not
+just a few of one kind but dozens and dozens of many kinds of cookies
+must be made. There must be plenty for the enjoyment of the family and
+many holiday visitors.
+
+Regardless of the time of the year or the time of the day there are
+pies. The Pennsylvania Dutch eat pies for breakfast. They eat pies for
+lunch. They eat pies for dinner and they eat pies for midnight snacks.
+Pies are made with a great variety of ingredients from the apple pie we
+all know to the rivel pie which is made from flour, sugar, and butter.
+The Dutch housewife is as generous with her pies as she is with all her
+cooking, baking six or eight at a time not one and two.
+
+The apple is an important Pennsylvania Dutch food. Dried apples form the
+basis for many typical dishes. Each fall barrels of apples are converted
+into cider. Apple butter is one of the Pennsylvania Dutch foods which
+has found national acceptance. The making of apple butter is an all-day
+affair and has the air of a holiday to it. Early in the morning the
+neighbors gather and begin to peel huge piles of apples that will be
+needed. Soon the great copper apple butter kettle is brought out and set
+up over a wood fire. Apple butter requires constant stirring to prevent
+burning. However, stirring can be light work for a boy and a girl when
+they're young and the day is bright and the world is full of promise. By
+dusk the apple butter is made, neighborhood news is brought up to date
+and hunger has been driven that much further away for the coming winter.
+
+Food is abundant and appetites are hearty in the Pennsylvania Dutch
+country. The traditional dishes are relatively simple and unlike most
+regional cookery the ingredients are readily available. Best of all, no
+matter who makes them the results are "wonderful good."

+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive

+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at

+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate

+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:

+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
