Produktbeschreibung

From the 1920s through the 1940s, American kitchens had a welcome guest in Aunt Sammy, a creation of the US Department of Agriculture and its Bureau of Home Economics. Through the radio program Housekeeper s Chat, Aunt Sammy gave lively advice on food preparation, household chores, parenting and children, and gender dynamics as she encouraged women to embrace the radio and a host of modern consumer household products. The recipes she shared were gathered, in 1927, into a cookbook that became a valuable household manual for tens of thousands of Americans.Aunt Sammy s Radio Recipes revives the famous cookbook and joins it with extensive excerpts from the accompanying radio broadcasts, providing a fascinating study of how a witty and charming fictionalized personae became one of the early celebrity chefs of the radio age.
