This is a transcript of a Pennsylvania German talk presented at Muddy Creek Farm Library, Farmersville (Ephrata), Pennsylvania, on September 4, 2015.
Excerpt: "The main thing this evening will be [another] nice talk by...Alan Keyser having to do once again with old Pennsylvania Dutch foodways...Now, the last time I spoke...I described where folks used to eat and how they ate. This time I want to talk a bit about where and how they cooked their food and did their baking, and also about the use of smokehouses." The conversation discusses hearth cooking and all it requires: firewood, pots and pans, and chimney cleaning.
