I would contact Dover. Many of their books are in the public domain.

 really don't know about this copyright stuff.>>

Yes, you can post to the list. Single recipes are well within the bounds of 
educational use and this list is nonprofit use. I know that the matter of 
copyright has come up often here but I would seriously suggest you contact 
Llewelyn press and ask for their legal advisor. There is different criteria 
for recipes, which are formula not literature. As such they are covered as a 
'collection' but individual recipes are a gray area with the actual 
ingredient list being outside the realm of copyright and the instructions 
possibly falling under copyright.

I belong to numerous mundane recipe lists and entire recipes are posted all 
the time, many of them from current and past publications. In fact, this list 
is the ONLY list where copyright of INDIVIDUAL recipes has ever been an 
issue.
