Cooking with Anne of Green Gables

Cooking with Anne of Green Gables: Recipes from Edwardian Kitchens is a book by Kevin Sullivan and the producers of Anne of Green Gables and Road to Avonlea that was published by Davenport Press Publishers in 2005. The book features over 100 recipes for appetizers, breads, soups, seafood, main courses, vegetables, salads, desserts, drinks, and preserves. In addition, the 94-page volume presents information on cooking in the early 1900s, planning an authentic Anne of Green Gables meal, turn-of-the-century etiquette, and parlour games. Interspersed throughout the book, there are photographs from Sullivan Entertainment's productions and two paintings by James Hill, but there are no photographs of the recipes themselves.

The book includes the following contents:
