Cornbread is baked in a covered dutch oven, just as 17th Century colonists would have done (not that we’re striving to be like the Puritans, but they had some decent cooking techniques)

Digital age, here we come.

What is Yankee Cook?

Yankee Cook is where you'll find the recipes and thoughts of one frugal New Englander. I chose the term "Yankee" as a reference to frugality and the regional and local ingredients that I enjoy so much. That's not to say that this site is limited to New England fare, but I always use local ingredients wherever possible. All of these recipes are well-loved and have been rigorously tested for accurate cook-times, temperatures and ingredient quantities, so they should be good to go.

I started Yankee Cook in October 2009 when I was in grad school and had significantly more free time on my hands. I'm now employed full time, which is fantastic, but I have less time to devote to this. However, Yankee Cook is not dormant, I promise. Even if you look at the date on the latest post and it's like 3 months old, I am still working on new recipes. Check back every once in a while or add us to your RSS feed to see what's new.

Maybe sometime Yankee Cook will join the tweeterverses or the the face books, but for now I'd rather not feed that machine.

Enjoy.
