Student Pages with Ethnic Recipes
- 1995 and 1996 literacy program recipes gathered by
the US Outreach Technical Assistance Network, including a New York elementary school, and adult literacy projects for
recent immigrants from Southeast Asia and Central America.

- Turtle Tracks (Canku Ota) online magazine for Native American youth, with a recipe in every issue.
- Mary Gunderson's
www.historycooks.com site is mostly about American food history for students as presented in her many books, but has a free classroom lesson in making Plains Indian pemmican, and some recipes suitable for students showing what Lewis & Clark learned from Mandan and Hidatsa people..

Multi-Ethnic Recipe Sites
- Archive of ethnic recipes posted on rec.food.recipes -- most by non-members of the ethnic group, but a good back-up.
- Hawaiian Electric Company's archive of demonstrations by ethnic cooks, broadcast since 1995 as The Electric Kitchen on TV.
- Native American pages by the late Paula Giese, an Ojibway woman who collected recipes and other cultural material from her own and other
traditions.
- Native American recipe exchange on Native Tech Web Pages.
- One Million Plus Recipes Database, from Fundcraft, Inc., the largest publisher of community and church cookbooks. (Brief registration required.) Unfortunately the
recipes do not indicate their origin, but the database is searchable, and very useful for comparing multiple versions of a recipe like "Welsh Cakes" if you have
collected one.
- Rec.food.recipes archive by Arielle's Recipe Archives, relatively few by ethnic group members, but strong on obscure ethnic groups.
- Recipe links from the Three Rivers Free Net in Pittsburgh. Especially strong on Eastern European
immigrant groups, but they are always adding personal web pages with recipes from all over.
Specific Ethnic Groups:
- Armenian-American entire cookbook originally published in 1973 by St. Gregory's Armenian Apostolic Church of Indian Orchard, Massachusetts.
- Asian-Indian recipe exchange at Bawarchi.com. This site crashes some browsers, but features a very lively exchange of recipes
among Asian Indians living all over the world. It is especially interesting to see how regional recipes from India are becoming
part of a new Asian Indian ethnic identity for cooks from different regions of India now living in the US (and elsewhere).
- Basque-Americans (mixed with international recipes)
Buber's Basque Page
- Carpatho-Rusyn recipes gathered by the AMERICAN CARPATHO-RUSSIAN CITIZENS CLUB
of Endicott, NY.
- Germans from Russia Heritage Collection, from North Dakota State University.
- Germans from Russia recipes, among others, from professor Jim Isern's www.plainsfolk.com.
- Jewish-American recipes from Young Israel of Brookline, a Modern Orthodox congregation.
- Pennsylvania Dutch Recipes from Teri R. Foster.
- Roumanian-American recipes from a recent immigrant.
- Vlach-American recipes from Society Farsarotul
