Much of it draws on Amish and Pennsylvania Dutch Christmas cooking. Some of it is newer, the things that turn up on every holiday table now. The chapters say which is which.
It is not a canning book. Nothing goes in a water bath or a pressure canner. Every jar is dated in months, and every jar is meant to be used.
A seasonal companion to The Amish Dry Mix Pantry Cookbook. It stands on its own.
Christmas from scratch, measured ahead, so you get a seat at the table too.

There is a smell a kitchen only has in December. Ginger and molasses. Cardamom and warm butter. A stollen cooling under its powdered sugar.
This book gives you that kitchen without spending every evening measuring flour. You fill the jars once, in an afternoon. When the house fills up, the measuring is already done.
What is inside
- 60 from-scratch mixes: 54 cooking mixes and 6 layered gift jars.
- Two sizes for every cooking mix. A Family Jar for your own table, and a Crowd Batch exactly three times as big.
- More pans, one recipe. Feeding a full house means more pans or a bigger pot, not new math.
- US measures with metric in parentheses, and grams for flour, sugar, butter and the rest.
- A make-ahead line on every page: how long the jar keeps and, for most dishes, how far ahead you can make it.
- Shopping lists for every chapter.
- What It Replaces: an index of the store-bought boxes and packets each jar stands in for.
- Cutting the Salt and the Sugar: one section for cooks who want less of either.
Seven chapters for the whole season
- Christmas Morning: pancakes, sweet rolls and baked breakfasts for a full house.
- The Christmas Bread Box: the yeast breads and quick breads of the season.
- The Christmas Table: mains, sides and party food for hosting.
- The Cookie Exchange: 15 cookie and bar mixes to fill the tins.
- The Dessert Table: pies, cakes and puddings for the holiday table.
- Warm the House: hot drinks for guests, by the mug or by the pot.
- The Giving Chapter: six layered gift jars, each with the words for its tag.
