Selections from Aunt Sammy's Radio Recipes and USDA Favorites

A collection of consumer-oriented culinary guidance and recipes compiled from early radio homemaker broadcasts and later USDA testing. It opens with background on the radio household persona and the program's development, then presents laboratory-tested recipes, menus, and practical advice on buying, storing, canning, and freezing foods. Recipes range from soups and milk-vegetable preparations to main dishes, casseroles, and preserved meats, with instructions, measurements, and cooking techniques designed for economical, nutritious home meals. Taste-panel approval and time- and money-saving tips accompany guidance on food safety and storage.
