rachelmanija | Anyone Can Bake: 1929 Royal Baking Powder Cookbook (Reply)

After helping a neighbor clean out his apartment for a move and bringing him homebaked bread as a consolation, he gave me a cookbook that he'd unearthed from God knows where. It's a complete delight, and unlike many old cookbooks which are only good for windows into the things people used to eat that we now find unutterably gross, or for enjoyable reading of recipes way too complex or unusual to actually make, this one's recipes look both good and extremely simple.

I am going to try some. I assume baking powder is basically the same now as in 1929, i.e., I can just do the recipes as written?

Cut for a whole lot of photos.
