The Mai Family Cookbook is finally here!
This cookbook began as a way to remember and share some of the recipes of Elfriede Mai. Our mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, great-grandmother, friend, and mentor.
The project has grown.
You will also find recipes by other Mai family members. Immediate and extended.
Most of the recipes are Volga German in origin. It is the area where the Mai clan originally called home before coming to the United States in 1901.
There are photos and anecdotes by those of us who have spent time in Elfriede’s kitchen and around her table.
If these recipes spark memories about Elfriede, her kitchen, her cooking or the Mai farm, please send us an email at tregocenterdairy@gmail.com
If you have any recipes or photos we can share please send them along.
