Take a pot of Eiholz stories about planting, harvesting, cooking, and eating, and process them with 365 old recipes into a culinary treasure. In 1887/1888, Katharina Baumann attended the Reussport cooking school in Lucerne. She meticulously recorded the learned recipes in a notebook, which she brought to the farm when she married the Eiholz farmer Alois Scherer. Wonderful and also peculiar things can be discovered within, such as a rhymed recipe for love cakes or a brief guide to home cheese-making. Forgotten recipes from golden slices to Pfaffenmoken stand alongside insider tips like Sägerklöss or Our Gingerbread. Additionally, Otto Scherer shares stories about the agricultural work in Eiholz related to food, from planting and harvesting throughout the year, how the chicken ended up in the soup, the cider in the barrel, and the schnapps in the bottle, as well as cherry pitting and the concept of Ohne Znach.
