Drawing from her long experience of and affection for Switzerland, cookbook expert Nika Hazelton explains the basic elements of Swiss cooking as it is understood and practiced in Swiss homes. Her "lessons" include such necessities as complete directions for "au bleu" fish cookery, for making superb dumplings or Swiss pasta, for plain or fancy Fondue in all its variations, and for roasting veal in the Swiss manner. The book's 250 recipes, gathered over many years from peasants, housewives, and chefs through history, cover the range of home cooking, from appetizers to desserts, all adapted for the American kitchen. Included are such delights as Heidi's Devil's Dip, Gypsy Salad, Farina-Cheese Souffle, Minced Veal Bellevoir, and Apfelbroisi. This classic guide to Swiss cuisine, originally published by Atheneum, is sure to prove a favorite to today's cook as well.

The Swiss Cookbook
I cannot speak to the fairly old-fashioned recipes here, but I really enjoyed the author's stories about her childhood and her opinions on what 'actual' Swiss people eat and enjoy and how that is different across different regions. These stories & opinions are not at all the focus, the recipes are, but she works them into the book in a very natural way and reading it I felt like I was reaching across the years to touch a past (1967) in which she stood and was reaching backwards in her own memories to try to explain to her audience both Swiss cooking as she understood it and how it had changed with the post-WW2 world. I wonder if all the Hippocrene cookbooks are like this? I am hoping to find out but it is proving difficult to get more from the library just now.
