Heritage Recipes

Reids' daughter Diane has recently compiled a book of tested recipes that is available directly from her. The book is called:
"Canada's Heritage Through Food and Wine"
and is a collection of ethnic and native dishes from the variety of cultures that make up this land of ours.

Canada is a country which respects and encourages the traditions of those who come to its shores. From coast to coast, pioneers who cleared the land to create sustenance out of hardship found strength, comfort and familiarity in the transplanted cooking of their homelands. Such are the recipes cherished and handed down from one generation to the next-featured in this cookbook - Canada's Heritage through Food and Wine.

The book contains over 90 recipes, from breads to main courses to desserts, published in a handy spiral binding for ease of use in your kitchen. They are laid out like this:
