Book Synopsis Civil War Recipes by : Lily May Spaulding
Download or read book Civil War Recipes written by Lily May Spaulding and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Godey's Lady's Book, perhaps the most popular magazine for women in nineteenth-century America, had a national circulation of 150,000 during the 1860s. The recipes (spelled ""receipts"") it published were often submitted by women from both the North and the South, and they reveal the wide variety of regional cooking that characterized American culture. There is a remarkable diversity in the recipes, thanks to the largely rural readership of Godey's Lady's Book and to the immigrant influence on the country in the 1860s. Fish and game were readily available in rural America, and the number of seafood recipes testifies to the abundance of the coastal waters and rivers. The country cook was a frugal cook, particularly during wartime, so there are a great many recipes for leftovers and seasonal produce. In addition to a wide sampling of recipes that can be used today, Civil War Recipes includes information on Union and Confederate army rations, cooking on both homefronts, and substitutions used during the war by southern cooks.
Book Synopsis A Treasury of Civil War Family Recipes by : Robert Pelton
Download or read book A Treasury of Civil War Family Recipes written by Robert Pelton and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-01-20 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Unique Collection of Family Recipes and Tidbits of History from Abraham Lincoln, Robert E. Lee and Other Notables Involved in the War of Northern Aggression. Measurements for ingredients used in recipes used in the past would not be recognizable to more modern homemakers. Look at some of those called for in the recipes given above – 1 gill of milk; 1 dessertspoonful meat extract; a tumblerful of water; a dash of ground mace; 1 saltspoonful. What exactly would they mean today? Or for example, when busily scurrying around the kitchen and preparing a meal, who would be able to properly measure ingredients in such things as a wineglassful? Or a pound of milk or water? Then try a dram of liquid? What about a pound of eggs? To sum everything up, each recipe found in this unique cook book was once popular, or at least commonly used during the Civil War period. They were all part of the history of a particular family, or person, who lived and loved and prayed and fought through this tragic time of our great nation. Many were coveted treasures within a family, some famous, some not so famous, and handed down through the years or lost with the passage of time. Each recipe has been meticulously updated. When the recipe is used today, it will turn out exactly as it did for the woman of the house that prepared it for her family so many long years ago. Here they are presented for the first time for today's American families to enjoy and experience the pleasure of preparing, cooking, baking and serving – exactly as it was done in the past. And lastly, to thankfully pass a blessing over before eating – be it for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Book Synopsis Confederate Receipt Book by : Antiquarian Collection Cookbook
Download or read book Confederate Receipt Book written by Antiquarian Collection Cookbook and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the blockade of Southern ports and the lack of trading between the North and South during the Civil War, the Confederacy found itself in great deprivation, lacking its customary supplies. Showing great resourcefulness, southerners developed new ways to feed and clothe themselves and these adaptations and recipes were pulled together in 1863 by Richmond publishers West & Johnson, to share throughout the region in Confederate Receipt Book. The recipes were assembled from newspapers, staff, and other sources and were “designed to supply useful and economical directions and suggestions of cookery, housewifery, and for the camp.” Examples of resourceful recipes in Confederate Receipt Book include apple pie without apples, artificial oysters, and coffee substitutes as well as medicinal remedies for headaches, croup, and sore throats and making household items like candles and soap. The nature and extent of the items highlight the degree of difficulty that the Confederates faced and their ability to acclimate to the supplies at hand. Other examples include recipes for making ink, wicks for lamps, fire balls for fuel, and bread from numerous types of flours. The Confederate Receipt Book has as much quaint and amusing charm to present-day readers as it had practical significance to the beleaguered South fighting for its independence. This edition of Confederate Receipt Book was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the Society is a research library documenting the life of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The Society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience.

Book Synopsis Family Baking Recipes Of Civil War Notables by : Robert Pelton
Download or read book Family Baking Recipes Of Civil War Notables written by Robert Pelton and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2011-02-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baking Recipes From & Historical Trivia About Civil War Notables is a unique collection of special recipes dating from the Civil War period of our history. It's a practical baking book as well as the modern person's guide to authentic baking recipes from the Civil War period. These recipes were popular, or at least regularly used before, during and just after the Civil War or War Between the States. Many come from women who so expertly made bread and other baked goods for the legendary fighting men with the Union. These would include Generals Ulysses S. Grant, Abner Doubleday of later baseball fame, as well as the renowned George Armstrong Custer. And they are the recipes used by mothers, wives and daughters of the Confederacy when they baked for their heroic leaders-men such as Generals Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson and James Longstreet as well as others including Lieutenant Harry Buford (Loreta Janeta Velazquez) and the illustrious President of the Confederacy, Jefferson Davis. Baking during the Civil War period was far from an easy task. The women of the house made an art out of making tasty loaves of bread, biscuits, pastry, pies, cakes, cookies, and all of their other homemade goodies. In those days, homemakers couldn't always purchase good flour. Every sack or barrel or bag might present new baking problems. Flour always had to be tested for quality before using it for baking. In the South, corn meal muffins, pound cake, rolls, cookies, pies, etc., were all baked in the oven of her wood stove. Good baking was simply a matter of experience. Women were able to satisfactorily prepare and bake these favorites with no reliable temperature gage. A good homemaker relied on how hot her oven "felt" when she was ready to bake. She simply stuck an arm in while counting 1001, 1002, 1003, etc. How hot her arm felt in a given number of seconds (or how long it took to scorch the hair on her arm) would determine whether or not her oven was at the correct temperature for whatever it was she wanted to bake. Homemakers of today, with all the modern conveniences in their kitchens, can hardly surpass the finished breads and cakes and pies baked so many years ago. Housewives of the mid-1800s baked, cooked, sewed, cleaned house and cut everyone's hair. She was the resident doctor of the house. And she was in charge of settling arguments by popping her kid's bottoms with the flat side of a cast iron skillet when a wooden paddle wasn't handy. Hot corn bread represented a Southern homemaker's hospitality. If cold corn bread was served, it was a sign that the particular guest was not welcome. This was her method of letting them know. Most of these baked items are not difficult to make. Each recipe has been updated for the convenience of today's homemaker. The end result will be exactly as it was for our Civil War ancestors. Every recipe in BAKING RECIPES & HISTORICAL TRIVIA ABGOUT CIVIL WAR NOTABLES is a classic in the historical sense. Each is known to have been a favorite of, or invention of, some family or individual that lived and loved and prayed while the Civil War raged on around them. Many were coveted treasures within a family, some famous, some not so famous, and handed down through the years or lost with the passage of time. Each delightful recipe is followed by often forgotten facts about the heroes and heroines of the as well as a few not so well known individuals. Also included are interesting biographical highlights about the person or family to whom the recipe is attributed. Each recipe was among the best used in the North and the South during the time the Civil War was raging. Here they are presented for the first time for today's American families to enjoy and experience the pleasure of preparing, baking and serving-just as it was done in the past.

From Hot Buttermilk Biscuits and Sweet Potato Pie to Salmon Cakes on Pepper Rice and Gullah Fish Stew, Gullah Geechee food is an essential cuisine of American history. It is the culinary representation of the ocean, rivers, and rich fertile loam in and around the coastal South. From the Carolinas to Georgia and Florida, this is where descendants of enslaved Africans came together to make extraordinary food, speaking the African Creole language called Gullah Geechee. In this groundbreaking and beautiful cookbook, Matthew Raiford pays homage to this cuisine that nurtured his family for seven generations. In 2010, Raiford’s Nana handed over the deed to the family farm to him and his sister, and Raiford rose to the occasion, nurturing the farm that his great-great-great grandfather, a freed slave, purchased in 1874. In this collection of heritage and updated recipes, he traces a history of community and family brought together by food.
