I remember that little booklet, and I actually owned a bottle of angastoria. You used it in recipes to help the flavors blend, or at least that was the theory. In fact, now that you mention it, I always used a tiny bit in my pecan pies. Looking back after all these years I can’t say if the stuff really did anything. <LOL> Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 11, 2020, at 3:32 PM, Linda S. via Cookinginthedark <cookinginthedark@acbradio.org> wrote: > > Oh, the Braille Transcribers Guild in San Diego did a lot of cook books. Wonder what ever happened to them all? When I left the center I kept a lot of them in my office. There was also a really nice one from the the Minnesota school for the Blind. I remember one that I read that used Angosura in every recipe. I always wondered what that was because there was never an explanation, but I think it's some kind of lizuor.

The book had been transcribed by the San Diego Transcribers Guild and I had a copy for many years. Wasn’t it something like Elena’s Mexican Food Cookbook? I didn’t know about her radio show though. Darn, I might have enjoyed that.
