Strawberry Mousse Recipe From Original 1896 Boston Cooking-School Cook Book
Strawberry Mousse Recipe From Original 1896 Boston Cooking-School Cook Book

"At the Norman Rockwell’s museum located in the town of Stockbridge, MA I came across a book that included the beloved artist’s paintings, poems, and recipes from the 1890s–the Boston Cooking-School cook book. I was intrigued and decided to try my hands on the recipes. I did some digging and searching through antique books stores, and found an original, published in 1896. The Strawberry Mousse Recipe below is from the book. The easy-to-follow recipe instructions don’t require any special equipment, and all the ingredients are sold at every supermarket in America."
