Let’s Cook A Meal on the Wood Cookstove

Using recipes from The Mohawk Valley Cook Book published by the Ladies of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church of Canajoharie in 1889, participants will prepare a meal with ingredients appropriate to the season, locality, and time period. In addition to learning the ins-and-outs of cooking on the Farm’s Kalamazoo range, participants will have a chance to practice cooking methods typical of the time including: baking, steaming, frying, braising, and roasting. At the conclusion, participants of both the Open Hearth and the Cookstove Workshops will sit down together in the Kilts Farmhouse to share their experiences and to savor the delicious food they have prepared.

This workshop is done in conjunction with the “Let’s Cook a meal over the Open Hearth” workshop.
