Like the last document, this commercial cookbook for Planters Oil orients around Passover and uses the Song of Songs as a framing device. This iteration of the cookbook shares many of the same recipes as the last one, but also draws on more religious imagery and Old World narrative than the former's cultural and homemaking focus.
I found this commercial cookbook in the Nicole Di Bona Peterson Collection of Advertising Cookbooks, 1850s-2000s, at the Rubenstein Library at Duke University. I believe this is the first digitalization of this archival material.
