The annual VNSA book sale is the spot to pick up vintage cookbooks, especially if you're looking for a bargain. It's a treasure trove of community cookbooks that attracts collectors from around the country. Over the years we've picked up everything from What's Cookin' in Phoenix, Arizona, from 1961 to the Seeds to Table cookbook compiled by the Scottsdale Community Gardeners in 1985. The following recipe is from the latter book.
