I find that a half pack is the perfect amount to make a single pizza with (I half the Fanny Farmer recipe) Link: http://bunrab.com/

I used to buy them from Fanny Farmer when I lived in Mpls. They were a flattened pastel mint patty, that looked like someone flattened it with fork tines. They came in wintergreen and some other flavors, I cannot recall. I...

I tried making pear jelly this morning, following the instructions on the pectin packet to the letter (as Fanny Farmer had instructed me to do). I now have four 16-ounce jars of pear syrup. what did I do wrong? Can I boil the...

cookbook out there but rather one that a decent-sized group of hounds would be willing to bake from in December. Please vote for ONE of the following: — THE FANNIE FARMER BAKING BOOK by Marion Cunningham — MARTHA...

Old-fashioned pancakes from the Fanny Farmer Cookbook. My family used to make them on random weekend mornings when I was a kid. Sometimes we were even allowed to make chocolate-chip pancakes! (These are too sweet and rich for...

And another to throw into the mix- Fanny Farmer. My mom had one and got me one when I started cooking. I always find myself turning back to it for the basics- pancakes, breads, ice cream, how long to boil an egg, what temp to...

I don’t have the recipe in hand, but I always use the filling recipe from Fannie Farmer. Why? Because it is heavy on both lemon and cornstartch and yields the best flavor with a reliably firm texture. No weepy, runny...

My Dad made a recipe from a Fanny Farmer cookbook (maybe a reprint of an 1898) for a tomato pickle/relish that is stored in a crock. He checked it after a few days and it had bubbled over. The recipe said to leave it alone for a...

yeah, tedious. I blanched almonds for the first time when left alone with Fannie Farmer at age 12. Never again if I can help it! LOL— with the price of blanched almonds, I may have to: from about $9/# with shipping factored...

Oddly, my trashy “cooking with beer” cookbook doesn’t have it, nor does New Joy, Bittman, Fanny Farmer. I need something basic (I found one on epicurious from Gourmet that was over the top).

I have several recipes in various cookbooks, too many to list. Any book on American cookery, Evan Jones’s or James Beard’s, for instance, will have it – I believe there’s one in the older Joy of Cooking,...

I second the Mark Bittman (How To Cook Everything) recommendation, and also recommend the Fannie Farmer Cookbook by Marion Cunningham.

for the future). My memory keeps suggesting it was Marion Cunningham, but the Fannie Farmer Baking booking didn’t come out until 1996. I went to my local library this evening to double check and it wasn’t present. Does...
