My Italian daughter-in-law asked me last night over dinner if I ever did any German cooking. Short of a Sauerbraten when my son came home after 6 months in Heidelberg to study, just the jarred sauerkraut. But your piece reminds me of the notebook my grandma used to keep her most precious recipes in, held together with a couple of rubberbands to keep the contents inside. The book is lost but a quick search of Christmas recipes has given rise to some possible creations for Christmas eve dinner. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful piece. How wonderful that the things we thought we lost can at times be right under our noses.

I too had a bowl like yours which was my Mother’s but in the move either gave away or still boxed in the garage. Enjoy your story. Would love the recipe for the wedding soup. Happy Holidays ❤️
