Purity Cook Book was first published in 1923 and revised in 1932, 1937 and again in 1945.
First founded in 1905, Purity Flour (named after the "pure white" flour they produced) rose to become the largest flour milling company in Canada. In 1932, they published the Purity Cook Book which featured a variety of recipes incorporating Purity products as well as hundreds of other complementary recipes for all meals of the day. In 1937, the cookbook was revised to include more modern cooking techniques. Again in 1945, the cookbook was revised, this time to reflect more simple, economic fare appropriate for war-time cooking.
It is this 1945 war-time edition that is featured here. Beautifully presented, this cookbook contains 875 recipes for a variety of meals including sandwiches, cereals, candies, desserts, beverages, fish, meat, poultry, soup, salads, pickles, vegetables, canapes, rolls, pies, drinks, jams, jellies, preserves, puddings, muffins, icings, tarts, pies, breads, pastries, cookies… Read More

Harlequin 51 [51] 1950, 1st printing. (Mass market paperback) 288pp. Good to very good. The top of the spine has small tears and has been carefully repaired, the front cover has some minor creasing and a small nibble from the bottom edge, the spine has some creasing but is reasonably bright and square. This is one of the toughest Harlequins to find. (Cookbooks, Purity Flour Mills).
