Henri's Tas-Tee
Here's a great recipe booklet for Henri's Tas-Tee Dressing (I'm guessing dated 1950's thanks to the amazing artwork typical of this era), showing us how to add a tasty zing to our otherwise dull recipes. I've never heard of, nor tried Henri's dressing, and researching it online this evening I've learned that it's actually still made today and available pretty much everywhere; it seems to have quite a following too! And I could definitely go for "The Man's Salad" right about now (lord knows I have enough stale bread in the house!)
I love those old-school recipe books! Unfortunately my very favorite one, a book with a variety of ways to make biscuits, was destroyed in a fire some 25 years ago.
ReplyDeleteThis was my grandmothers favorite dressing and she used it in everything too. Its funny because I had completely forgotten about it until seeing this post. Your blog does it again!

Sometimes that can either be a good thing, or a bad thing :)
Get ready for some skinned knees people, cuz in the next post we'll be shooting the duck and doing the hokey pokey-- on wheels!
I was actually searching for Henri's Tas-Tee Dressing recipes when, much to my amazement, I came across this awesome recipe booklet. What a laugh, thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother was Henrietta Mahler co f0under of Henri's. I was so glad to see this booklet. Thank you for posting it.

I must say it is truly unfortunate the recipe of this wonderfull creation is being kept from the public ..it is a real travesty that such a loved traditional product loved by so many families and in general is being taken from our lunch/dinner tables by a corporation.. B&G FOODS.. would not see the viability of this product. bring it back or release the recipe.. the world is a poorer place without henri's tastee dressing..
