A Portuguese-American Cookbook (E. Donald Asselin, M.D.)

Charles E. Tuttle Co, Vermont, 1980. Softcover. First edition, seventh printing. First published in 1966.

"One of my hobbies happens to be cooking, especially with recipes of foreign origin. Knowing of this interest, my many Portuguese friends and patients among the first and second generations on the Cape and on the Massachusetts coast introduced me to the joys of their native cooking art brought from the mainland or via the Cape Verde and Azore Islands. The authentic recipes I collected were in danger of being lost as unfortunately succeeding generations are succumbing to the dubious attractions of pizzas, hot dogs, and TV dinners, and very few can prepare a dish such as their mothers made."
