Corned or pickled beef Jewish style.

Here's one from my old cookbook
Circa 1952.

I'm thinking that was intended to sit on a shelf in the pantry for the 3 weeks...

Old world style..

I would put it on a shelf in the cellar.

I like to digitize old cookbooks, either by scanning or photographing pages like this. Or, I'll transcribe the recipes. Then there they go, out on the Web, instead of sitting on my shelf doing nothing.

Pretty neat how you can read about the old ways they DoD stuff. The things they mention you can no longer find. The things you have to look up to see what it is.
Mine is this one. It has a bunch of French techniques.

My mom was in some gourmet cooking clubs in the 70s - 90s and she collected a lot of oddball cookbooks. Some of them are from local womens groups like faculty wives; some were from churches. These are comb-bound and I have one of those binding machines, so I can open the binding and take out individual sheets to go through the pass-through scanner, then put the sheets back in the book..

I started this thread but it never really took off:
