About this Book
Northern Newfoundland is a place both lush and barren. Harsh winds and cold
temperatures have left their mark on this great part of our country, and
back before the days of electricity and roads, people had to rely on food
that would last a long period of time. The traditional recipes collected
within these pages are a time capsule to what it was like in those days,
although many will recognize dishes still loved by people today. In
Northern Newfoundland Cooking, Ada J. Gillard has compiled a unique
taste of yesteryear and, through photographs, trivia, and timely tips, has
captured the flavour of Northern Newfoundland.
