Recipe for Sleep is a sleep podcast in which we read to you from very old cookbooks until you fall asleep. In this episode, host Erin Brindley lulls you to sleep with the first section of The A. A. Cookbook by Miss A. Alden and Miss A. Adams, published in 1895. This tome contains 300 recipes contributed by “Very Good Cooks,” and each one reads like a little poem. Fall asleep imagining steaming griddle cakes, whimsical desserts like “Apple Porcupine,” and “Blanc-mange to Please the Children.” Erin has adapted one of the ginger snap recipes, “Alice’s Ginger Snaps,” which is unique and very molasses-y, perfect for a cookie sandwich, available here: ThankSalt.com.
