Translations:Das Kochbuch der Maria Christina Eckart von 1776/1/en

Among other things, the Eckart Family Archive contains recipes from the handwritten cookery book of Maria Christina Eckart, née Traugott. The second wife of Johannes Eckart not only used to cook for her own family, but also catered for guests at the post house and coaching inn "Goldener Hirsch" (Golden Deer). Even in those days, potatoes were the most important food on the menu. The cookery book contains recipes for “Potato Gateau”, “Finger Noodles with Potatoes” and “Small Potato Cakes”. Shortly before becoming part of the family archive, the cookery book had been owned by the genealogist Else Emrich (1904 to 1983).
