Internationally known food historian William Woys Weaver presents a
richly photographed gastronomical journey into the heart of Pennsylvania
Dutch food traditions, with more than 100 heritage recipes and the
colorful stories behind them - including Shoofly Cake, New Year's
Pretzels and the original Snickerdoodles. Dutch Treats shines a
much-anticipated light on the vast diversity of authentic baked goods,
festive breads and pastries that we call Pennsylvania Dutch (named for
the German-speaking immigrants who settled there starting in the late
1600s).
