DeMcate^ to The Old Memories which this Book will recall of the Hospitable Homes of the North and the South. INTRODUCTION- : INTRODUCTION. The title of this book by itself conveys so much that any intro- duction to the many good things told in its pages seems superfluous. It certainly should not require any urging to induce all who can to read, mark, learn and inwardly digest them. " One hundred years ago and more " brings before us a delightful period in our country's history, and recalls the generous, cordial feel- ings which prevailed among our ancestors — that " open-handed spirit, irank and blythe, of ancient hospitality," which made the homes of the New World all that a stranger could desire. We may reconcile ourselves to the passing of " the fugaceous hospitalities of the snuffbox " as needing the powdered wig and three- cornered hat to justify them. What a genuine ring there is in the words of Washington, referring to Mount Vernon, when he said " T.et the hospitality of the house with respect to the poor be kept up; let no one go hungry away." And the cordiality of Jefferson while living in Philadelphia is delightfully expressed in a letter to Richard Peters: "Call on me whenever you come to town, and if it should be about the hour of three, I shall rejoice the more. You will find a bad dinner, a good glass of wine, and a host thankful for your favour and desirous of encouraging repetitions of it, wathout number, form, or ceremony." It was a time when there was truly that " hospitality sitting with gladness," w-hich all the luxuries of the present day cannot supply. Athenaeus, as early as the Third century, held that " Every inves- tigation which is guided by principles of nature fixes its ultimate aim entirely on gratifying the stomach." And Dr. Johnson, in simpler phrase, confirms Athen?eus when he says : " I look upon it that he 15 i6 FAMOUS OLD RECEIPTS who does not mind his belly will hardly mind anything else." This volume would appeal to both philosophers. The sources of the recipes add greatly to their value and interest. Though described as coming from " the kitchen," they were the work of as gentle dames as ever graced a court. It is a sad error to suppose that the homely accomplishments of housewives, deemed essential at the end of the eighteenth and begin- ning of the nineteenth centuries in this country, are no longer impor- tant. A hundred years ago so much could be left to faithful serv^ants that even less was required of the heads of households than now. There are, alas! no more of those loyal, devoted, if humble, members of the family circle who, in wealth and health or in trouble, never failed to supply the comforts and maintain the dignity of the old homes. To-day even in England or Scotland a Caleb Balderston would be hard to find, and the colored " Aunties " have disappeared under the changed conditions at the South. The character of the hospitality at the North differed from that at the South, especially in the rural sections. In the North the well- kept inns to be found on many of the principal roadways supplied what the roof of the planter generously offered to the traveler in the Southern States.

    Fall Flavor Weekend Recipes 2017 These recipes are taken from original historical resources and contain spellings and references that will be unfamiliar to today’s cooks. These were retained for accuracy and are explained where possible. To Stew a Rump of Beef Having boiled it till it is a little more than half enough, take it up, and peel off the skin: take salt, pepper, beaten mace, grated nutmeg, a handful of parsley, a little thyme, winter-savory, sweet-mar- joram, all chopped fine and mixed, and stuff them in great holes in the fat and lean, the rest spread over it, with the yolks of two eggs; save the gravy that runs out, put to it a pint of claret, and put the meat in a deep pan, pour the liquor in, cover in close, and let it bake two hours, then put it into the dish, pour the liquor over it, and send it to the table. Hannah Glasse, The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy, 1796, p. 70 To Stew Pears Pare six pears, and either quarter them or do them whole; they make a pretty dish with one whole, the rest cut in quarters, and the cores taken out. Lay them in a deep earthen pot, with a few cloves, a piece of lemon-peel, a gill [1/2 cup] of red wine, and a quarter of a pound of fine sugar. If the pears are very large, they will take half a pound of sugar, and half a pint of red wine; cover them close with brown paper, and bake them till they are enough.

Hotel -3 B45 oomes }L.jk.A- ?«'€ l^tS €i Writing this booklet was a pleasure because I would like beer to be considered a desirable ingredient of many a tasty simple family dish. The use of beer in cooking is a very ancient custom and no country or people can lay special claim to it, because beer of some sort has been and is still being made in almost every land where grain is grown. The earliest written record of this ancient and honorable beverage appears on a Mesopotamian clay tablet of several thousand years before the Christian era and shows it was used in cooking as well as a beverage. The recipes you will find in this book have been tested by me and tasted by many who were always pleasantly surprised; no wonder, since the recipes are for the most part traditional and belong to the everyday family cooking of many lands Germany, Spain, China, England, France, Belgium, Italy and even America. Although beer is naturally most often thought of as a beverage, you should experiment in cooking with it. Beer added to a dish enriches its flavor and increases its tastiness; like wine, it does its work of flavoring and tenderizing during the cooking, and its flavor often disappears.

    CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS: THE MOTIF OF FOOD IN APPALACHIAN LITERATURE by CYNTHIA L. SIBLEY THAYER Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON December 2010 Copyright © by Cynthia L. Sibley Thayer 2010 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my dissertation committee members, Tim Morris, Lewis Baker, and Ken Roemer, for their encouragement, notes, and willingness to read this manuscript as many times as needed. Although not an English major when I began my bachelor‘s degree, when I entered the English department at UTA I quickly realized my career goals changed. I enjoyed those undergraduate classes so much and knew that I wanted to teach English. Thanks also must go to my family. My parents, Mac and Linda Sibley, not only contributed monetarily to all of my degrees but their love and support has always been without fail. Without Mom‘s nagging to write about her family in some way and then to hurry and finish the manuscript, I could have floundered around for ten more years! Although passionate about my family in the hills, I am and will always be, a ―foreigner‖ in their eyes and I have Dad to thank for that! I must also thank Grandma Malvery Roberts Begley for her stories and her willingness to take me to places in eastern Kentucky where I could not go alone. I want to thank my husband, Kevin Thayer, for his patience and love while taking classes at night, staying up to read required texts, and letting me gallivant around eastern Kentucky with the folks while he stayed at home taking care of things.

We speak of preserves and pickles in the same breath, and the fact is that pickles are preserves of a particular kind. When we say pre- serves we mean foods put up in sugar — to preserve them. Pickles are foods put up in brine or vinegar — to preserve them. In either case what happens is that the ripening process and the spoiling process in the fruit or vegetable used for pickles is stopped or prevented because the enzymes, bacteria, molds, and other organisms that cause these changes cannot live in so much sugar or brine or'vinegar. The quality of homemade pickles (and all other pickles, for that matter) depends first of all on the quality of the materials used in the making, says the Bureau of Home Economics of the U.

  • Comparative Mini-Cookbook by David Burgett
    Comparative Mini-Cookbook by David Burgett The Comparative Cookbook lesson focuses on the utilization of historical and modern day primary sources along with various print and non-print resources. This lesson is an effort to expand students’ perception of the life and times of Abraham Lincoln during the latter part of the 19th century. The particular topic of inquiry to be emphasized by this lesson will be popular food recipes of that period. These Civil War era recipes will be compared with modern day version of the same dish incorporating the use of an analytic worksheet. Students will analyze and interpret the significance of primary source documents and make inferences about how a “set of directions” for the same end product can change over a period of time. --- Overview------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subject: U.S. History/ Social Studies / Library Research / Family and Consumer Science Time Required: Three 50 minute class periods Grade Range: 9 - 12 Understanding Goal: Primary sources provide a glimpse into everyday life in the past.
