The New Dr. Price Cookbook

by Royal Baking Powder Company

It is a recipe book published by the Royal Baking Powder Company in the early 20th century. First published in 1921, the book was authored by the company's director of research, Dr. Charles T. Price. It features over 300 recipes, including classic American dishes like meatloaf, mac and cheese, and apple pie, as well as international cuisine and desserts. The book was notable for its focus on using baking powder as a leavening agent, and many of the recipes highlight the versatility of this ingredient. It also includes tips on cooking and baking techniques, making it a useful resource for both novice and experienced cooks. "The New Dr. Price Cookbook" was popular among American households in the early 20th century and remained in print for several decades. It has since become a nostalgic symbol of American culinary history, and many of its recipes have been adapted and passed down through generations of home cooks. Today, the book is considered a valuable resource for those interested in traditional American cuisine and the history of cooking and baking. It provides a glimpse into the tastes and trends of a bygone era, and its emphasis on using baking powder as a leavening agent is still relevant in modern cooking.
