Food & Cooking

East Coast Recipes gives you access to over 3,000 delicious recipes created by talented chefs and cookbook authors, published in more than 40 East Coast cookbooks. Whether you’re looking to use up a specific ingredient, find health-conscious recipes or find inspiration from your favourite local chef, the site's advanced search feature can help you find exactly what you’re looking for. The cookbooks are available as PDFs you can view on a computer or mobile device, or you print recipes for personal use.

In creating this online treasury of cookery, the Nova Scotia Archives team found and digitized approximately 1,000 old handwritten or early printed recipes; they're presented here in the 'Collected Recipes' section.
