About

Past to Present Kitchen brings new life to vintage recipes, explores food history, and celebrates the home cooks who shaped the way we cook and connect today.

Each recipe is sourced from vintage cookbooks, recipe boxes, and friends like you! We strive to stay as close to the original recipes as possible, making only minor tweaks to suit today’s home cooks.

We only share recipes we’d be excited to eat ourselves—so while a Jell-O dish might pop up now and then, you can count on it being delicious!

Most of all, we love sharing stories—whether it’s the history behind a dish or ingredient, a peek inside cookbooks from the past, or a closer look at the cooks who first wrote down or passed along the recipe.

Follow along, because every recipe holds a story!
