"Out of Old Ontario Kitchens pays homage to the First Peoples of this land and the earliest settlers; those who trapped and fished and hunted; those who cleared the land and planted crops; and to all those women - our mothers and aunts, our grandmothers and great-grandmothers and great-great grandmothers - who got up and lit the fire; who toiled and stirred and cooked and baked and who kept families alive.... From bannock to venison, Empire biscuits to Canada's War Cake, Veal and Ham Pie to Charlotte Russe d'Erable, these are the tales of what we ate - our food trails - because food stories, as it turns out, are the real stories of our lives."--
