Five or six years ago my family started went through all the old recipes - from old newspapers, cookbooks, etc. that were in homes across my extended family. They then decided on which to keep, and printed a new cookbook from the compilation of these recipes.

Now if we find (or author) a recipe that we really like, we send it, with any additional annotations, to my parents so that they can include it in the next print edition. It's a relatively time-intensive and expensive process, but from this point forward we should be able to maintain our family's recipes in a physical, living document form.

Maybe we don't get the yellowed pages and flour from grandma's hands on the cover, but I think it's a good system.

I've been doing this, but on my personal blog ( https://www.bbkane.com/recipes/ ). I'm really glad I got to get some of these from my grandma before she passed, and it's been a huge hit to just send a link when someone wants a recipe.
