1950s Cooking...

I recently ordered a 1950s German cookbook.  I've slowly been going through the recipes and enjoy the different tastes.  Part of the fun is learning to cook German style for my boyfriend.  The other fun part is trying to decipher German recipes in measurements or cooking terms they don't use anymore.  Even with my boyfriend helping to translate, we still get a little confused at times.  Tonight we cooked Hungarian Goulash.  At least the German version of it.  That along with carrots cooked in vinegar and served with oil and chives.  Quite tasty actually.  For dessert we had hazelnut pudding.  The recipes will shortly follow, translated to English.  I am waiting for a 1950s American cookbook to arrive and will work through that one as well.  Some Jello molds also arrived.  I already found a German version of a horrible sounding vegetable gelatin recipe.  I think that will be attempted next week.
