Good Food, Served Right : Traditional Recipes and Food Customs from New York's North Country

by Lynn Case Ekfelt

North of the Mohawk River in central New York is a vast area known to most of the world for the grandeur of its woods and waters, with a population, according to an old joke, that is "more cows than people." This "North Country" is home to a surprising diversity of cultural groups who have adopted and adapted to the local landscape with a rich tapestry of customs and traditions, among those producing and serving good food. In this collection of historical sketches, recipes and essays, folklorist Ekfelt explores the back roads and small towns of one of America's premier wilderness areas.
