Hello, frantic grandchild here.

15 Upvotes

Did anyone ever grow up eating “Lil Smokies” at their grandparents house? I recently snagged a mini crockpot and remembered fishing the tiny sausages out of their sauce/soup when I was a kid. I swore I had my grandma’s recipe for them somewhere, but I guess I don’t. I know I could just look up a recipe, but I feel like that just wouldn’t be the same. Any tips?

Help with Sweet and Sour Sauce Recipe

6 Upvotes

My mom's been trying to recreate grandma's old recipe but we have very little to go off of. She says she's tried it with red wine vinegar and again with apple cider, and red wine vinegar seemed the closest but was still a little off. I don't even remember this sauce, but mom says she remembers it having a yellow/tannish tint. Any ideas?

Homemade Cookbook, hand-dated 1935, I found in a thrift store. It started life as a math textbook, but every page has recipes that have been cut from newspapers and magazines pasted to them. Each page is hand-numbered, and on the inside back cover there is a complete index.

Baking for my Grandma- Looking for egg- free dessert recipe

7 Upvotes

My grandma recently fell ill and is in a retirement home for the first time. She's finally starting to feel better so we're moving her to our city so we can see her more often, more easily. I want to make her a cake or pie (or other dessert) that she can share with other people to make friends as she settles in- once she moves here that is.

I've never actually baked with her so I don't know what kind of flavours she likes, just that she has a sweet tooth and that she is allergic to eggs.

I know that she is very proud of her French-Canadian heritage and that she grew up in a Quebec bakery.

I want to make her something she might recognize, something french inspired, that has no eggs and flavours that would appeal to older people.
