A note about Mutti’s handwritten cookbook
Some of these recipes were written down by my Mutti, and I’m not sure where she first got every one. Many, I’m sure, were passed along to her from her own Mutti and her Oma.
In the meantime, I’m simply thankful she took the time to record these authentic German recipes, and for teaching them to me.
