Pete Family Recipe Blog

I started this blog as a way of sharing the recipes in my mother's recipe boxes with my entire large family so everyone in the family can access any recipes they would like to have. My mom and dad both loved recipes and cooking. I think my mom liked baking better, and my dad loved to combine foods in new ways in cooking. The foods we ate while we were growing up are a memory that we all share. I'm sure my siblings will find a recipe or two that will spark some good memories. Please feel free to add recipes that I missed or send them to me and I will add them. I can also start a section of our favorite recipes if you send them to me.

Tomato Juice Cocktail

Mom made hundreds of quarts of this. When Dad developed heart disease she used the powdered spices instead of the salts. I am including the ingredients for both ways.

6 quarts tomato juice
3/4 cup sugar (I cut it down to 1/2 cup sugar)
3 T salt
3 tsp. celery salt (or 1 tsp. celery powder)
2 tsp. onion salt (or 1 tsp. onion powder)
1 tsp. garlic salt (or 1/2 tsp. garlic powder)

Process 15-20 minutes in a hot water bath
