    Cookin with Maudie: Sara Miller's Pizza Burgers and More!

    Published: Aug 13, 2020 · Updated: Oct 10, 2020 by Kevin Williams | Leave a Comment

    I used to read the Amish newspaper “The Budget” fairly regularly but I don’t as much anymore.  There used to be a cooking column (recipe column) in the Budget called “Cookin’ with Maudie.”  As far as I know, the paper never explained who Maudie was.  Could be a name. Could also be a variation on the Pennsylvania Dutch word “maud”, which is like maid or housekeeper.
    I was doing some cleaning out of some old boxes today and I came across my copy of Cookin with Maudie.  Not sure how I came to own this copy, but it was one of my first Amish cookboos.  It’s packed with recipes.
    There are 196 pages filled with delicious recipes such as Italian Vegetable Casserole, Raw Apple Cake, Molasses Cookies, Best Oven Hash, Lemon Seasoned Steak, and Lemon-Herb Turkey Drums. Contributors are shown with the recipes, but there is not an alphabetized, consolidated list of contributors.
    The Maudie column was generally filled with contributed recipes from readers and the cookbook is like that also.  There are a few used copies available on Amazon.

    Cookin' with Maudie, one of the first Amish cookbooks I ever had...cover is splattered and old, but the inside is full of amazing recipes.
