This sale is for an original 1939 EDITION of \"THE SOUTHERN COOK BOOK OF FINE OLD RECIPES\" from the Culinary Arts Press.
It contains 322 \"traditional\" southern dishes.
Many of these date back to the Civil War to the time the Southern Sates were known as the Confederate states of America, C.S.A. Confederacy.
Since mammies couldn\'t rely on written receipts or recipes, most of the wonderful recipes from these great cooks derive from tradition and experience for many were not learned in the manner of reading and writing. They created magic in their kitchens with whatever they could.
It is adorned with numerous illustrations and songs sung by the plantation slave of the Old South. These songs are historically important as it was their attempt to preserve the Negro culture they had brought with them from Africa. Although the drawing were meant to celebrate the rich history of the Southern African-American when the book was published, today we would call these images stereotypical, politically incorrect, and even demeaning in some cases.
Many of these make use of the \"N\" word which speaks volumes of the era in which this book was written. It is a relic of an era where racially inappropriate and insensitive products were widely available. Thankfully, society has moved past this era. While it was a negative part of our progress, this cook book is a reminder of that place in history and serves as an important tool for education about the past.
Just a few of the wonderful recipes included are: Pigs in Blankets, Buttermilk Muffins, Confederate Coffee Cake, Pendennis Turtle Soup, North Carolina Syllabub, Corn Meal Mush, Hopping John, Creole Goulash, Pot Likker, Corn Meal Dodgers, Opossum, Cracklin Bread, Pickaninny Donuts, Plantation Soup, Kentucky Burgoo, Jambalaya (a Creole Dish), Chitterlings, Mississippi Cole Slaw, Miss Lee\'s Southern Corn Bread, Spoon Bread, Mulatto Bread, Beaten Biscuits, Chess Pie, New Orleans Crepes, Molasses Pudding, Fruit Cake, Confederate Coffee Cake, Short\'nin\' Bread, Topsy\'s Nut Drop Cookies, Colonial Cookies, Chocolate Indians, Florida Pralines, and Goober Brittle.
