Mankato cookbook gets credit for first hot dish recipe

Joyce Nelson polishes silver pitchers outside the kitchen of the Grace Lutheran Church in Mankato, Minn. A cookbook compiled in 1930 by members of the congregation's Ladies Aid group is being credited as the source for the first printed recipe for hot dish. Nelson found her copy of the book at a used book sale.
