The collectors had to reach far back into the history of cookery of each of the ethnic groups of which Switzerland, South Germany, and the Netherlands were the major backgrounds. The melting pot of recipes, however, really originated in West Prussia which at times belonged to Germany and at other times to Poland, whence Mennonites spread into the interior of Poland and ultimately to Russia. Similarly, some of the Swiss and South German Mennonites and Amish and Hutterites spread to Russian Poland and Russia. Here most of them accepted Borscht , the symbol of the melting pot, in one or another variety.

The idea of Melting Pot Cookery was to include typical old recipes of the various Mennonite cultural groups who have settled in Kansas and surrounding states from 1874-1974. Selected women representing the ten cultural groups together planned, collected and prepared the typical recipes, folk stories and histories.
