While food editor of Food & Wine magazine, Ms. Wyler found the perfect country retreat— quaint, remote, and full of good food. Her weekend visits to the country permitted Ms. Wyler to share with the people in a rural community in northeastern Pennsylvania and become privy to their prized family recipes for many outstanding dishes. Ms. Wyler said that the majority of recipes in the book came from members of her small communi- ty, having been passed down for generations. "The majority of dishes were developed in my own farmhouse kitchen with easy-to-find local in- gredients—the kinds of stocks found all over America with sea- sonal fruits and vegetables," she said.
