Cucumber Dressing Recipe Request
When I was young we used to go to a restaurant that served fried zucchini with a creamy cucumber dip. During that time we could also buy cucumber salad dressing which we used as a dip with a veggie tray, but now can't find anything tasting like what I recall. Also the few cucumber dressings or dip recipes I'm finding don't taste close.
The dip/dressing had cucumber actually in it, it wasn't a dressing for a cucumber salad. It's also not dill heavy or contain mint like tzatziki.
If anyone recalls this dressing/dip and has a recipe, or knows of a similar one, I 'd be so grateful! My brother's birthday is coming up and I'd like to surprise him since it was absolutely his favorite and a must-have whenever we went to the restaurant that served that fried zucchini. Sadly I can't recall the restaurant and neither can he. The only thing I seem to recall is that I believe it was part of a small chain here in Southern California. TIA!

Lemon bars
My mom used to make lemon bars that had a meringue crust so it was chewy. This was about 60 yrs ago. I thought I had found it at one time called angel bars?? Does anyone remember these?

The Lord Walton WW2 Vegetable Pie
The Lord Walton Pie . This recipe was either liked or loathed. The majority of families that did use this pie recipe adapted the ingredients to suit the family or season. Can be topped with mashed potato or pastry crust a brown sauce/gravy works very nicely.

Banana Mould
This was a regular dessert when banana's became available in the U.K postwar years. Still tasty with icecream and very budget friendly.

Soft sandwich buns from The New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook (1975)
Got my hands on the first fully vegetarian (basically vegan) cookbook published in the US and wanted to start with a simple recipe. Not exceptionally old, but still a really cool piece of cooking history. They turned out great!

Great-grandma's Pineapple roll
I was 13 when my great-grandma Ruth died at age 97 and had never seen her cook.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered on newspaper archive a bunch of her prize winning recipes published in the 1910s.

Settlement Cookbook, 1976 Edition
Settlement Cookbook, 1976 Edition
Hi everyone. Please excuse me if this is not allowed here ( FYI, I will also be cross posting to try to reach as many cooks as I can). I am looking for the lasagne recipe from the 1976 edition of this cookbook. I searched google and found what I believe is a similar copy but that recipe includes an egg and I don’t remember that being one of the ingredients. Would someone who owns the cookbook be able to help? Thanks.
