NEBRASKA COOKBOOK
The Deshler Area Chamber is taking on an ambitious project to promote the state of Nebraska. Plans are for a cookbook entitled “All Across Nebraska” featuring a recipe and noteworthy bit of information about every municipality in the state alphabetically, from Abie to Yutan.
Using Alexandra as an example: “ALEXANDRIA A new town was created and given the name "Alexandria" by the railroad, the first town on the "ABC Railroad," (so named for the alphabetical naming of stations on the line) followed by a recipe submitted by someone in or from the Alexandria area and credited to that individual.
Recipes may reflect a town’s heritage or simply be a favorite of the submitter or in memory of someone from your current or home town. Local eating establishments may want to promote themselves by sharing their signature recipe. The cookbooks will be available at Grow Nebraska and throughout the state.
Alphabetically there are 540 Nebraska towns in the U.S. postal zip code listing. Lincoln and Omaha and others have multiple zip codes but in the interest of space and simplicity consideration will be given to selecting one recipe from each. Final recipe selections will be determined based upon relevance of information and variety of recipes.
How to contact every town in the state? We’re relying on area newspapers and the ‘ripple effect’ of contacting people we know in other towns and asking them to keep spreading the word to their friends and relatives – all across Nebraska.
Submit recipe, contributor’s name and your town’s information to: Deshler Chamber / 608 Alice Street / Deshler NE 68340 or
Proceeds from cookbook sales are designated to the Deshler Chamber scholarship fund. Thank you for helping promote the hospitality and good taste of our great state of Nebraska!
