That’s a limitation of your source. Several recipes that I’ve seen passed down from that era were like this. Many of those recipes have an origin that can be googled.
I am an accomplished cook and I have a lot of recipes passed down a century or more first-hand. Many have the property I described. I know many other people with similar family recipes.
Just because you’ve never heard of it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
- somenameforme 2mo agoMost of the product types you're describing didn't meaningfully exist until the 50s (which is why I used that era) as WW2 greatly expanded production of crap food and subsequently led to a wider public introduction. So having family recipes using them from a century or more would be quite odd. Beyond that, what do you think is more representative of recipes of the past? A selection of hundreds of recipe books with thousands of recipes, or the family recipes of yourself and some acquaintances?
