I think it’s pretty clear she’s writing about the stuff from her background that she grew up with. There’s no shortage of cook books out there for any cuisine or region you can think of, so I’m not sure why it’s such a crime she didn’t work in a token few other recipes in this one.  If somebody in e.g. Dearborn puts…
