(From eBook):"MOCK-TURTLE SOUP
Take about two pounds of beet, lamb, fowl, pig's-head, or tongue; any of these kinds of meat will make good soup. Boil the meat well, take it .out, cut it in small pieces, and put back into the soup. Season it with one tea-spoonful of mace, one of cloves, one of cinnamon, one dozen of whole black pepper, one small onion, chopped fine. Grind the spices before adding them. Brown one tea-cup of flour to thicken the soup; burn two table-spoonfuls of sugar, and add, with six hard-boiled eggs, the yelks being rubbed fine, and one tea-cup of tomato catchup. Boil all these ingredients until done, and just before serving add a glass of claret or other wine. Put the soup on as soon after breakfast as pos- sible.
GRAVY SOUP.
Boil your soup-meat until tender, then chop it fine. (Beef- steak "left over" is better than meat, and does not require to be boiled.) Brown two table spoonfuls of flour with a tea- spoonful of butter. Cut up two onions into it, add your meat, and enough of the pot-liquor to moisten it (if beef-steak is used, moisten with water); let it fry ten minutes, then re- turn to the soup-pot. Cut up three carrots, three turnips, and one can of tomatoes, very fine, and put them into the soup. Boil two eggs hard, and add, a quarter of an hour before dishing, a salt-spoonful of ground mace and a tea-spoonful of ground cloves. Before sending to table add a tumbler and a half of claret. Serve with rice..."

(5 Cooking In Old Créole Days. La Cuisine Créole à L'Usage Des Petits Ménages.
By Célestine Eustis,1904
180 PDF Pages

This
is a handsome ebook and offers an excellent overview of Creole cooking
in and around New Orleans at the beginning of the 20th century. It is
considered one of the classic expositions of this cuisine.The ebook
itself contains a series of fine illustrations by Harper Pennington,
some of street food sellers. The illustrations have tissue guard sheets
printed with words (in French) and music. The book is bilingual, a
larger section of recipes in English, the rest in French.
And
what splendid recipes; every aspect of Creole cuisine is covered:
Jumballaya, Oyster and Peanut Soup, Crawfish Bisque, Pot au Feu, New
Orleans Veal with Oysters, Couche Couche, Grillades, Gombo Zherbes - and
so much more.
A
large number of the recipes are attributed, many to African American
cooks. As with so many of the books in this collection, careful perusal
of the text will offer much pleasure and information.

(6)-What Mrs. Fisher Knows About Old Southern Cooking SOUPS, PICKLES, PRESERVES, ETC By Abby Fisher,1881
84 PDF Pages
Awarded Two Medals at the San Francisco Mechanics' Institute Fair,
1880, for best Pickles and Sauces and best assortment of Jellies and Preserues.
DIPLOMA AWARDED AT SACRAMENTO STATE FAIR, 1879
This
eBook is the third of the five major works by African Americans we have
chosen to represent their contributions to American cookery.
That this book was written at all and that it has survived is a marvel.
Mrs. Fisher, born a slave, somehow found her way to San Francisco soon
after the Civil War and, by dint of talent and hard work, created a life
and business there. She and her husband created a business
manufacturing and selling "pickles, preserves, brandies, fruits, etc."
She was proud of a Diploma awarded at the Sacramento State Fair in 1879
and two medals awarded at the San Francisco Mechanics' Institute Fair,
1880, for best Pickles and Sauces and best assortment of Jellies and
Preserves.
Mrs. Fisher seems to have been supported by many of the leading
business and professional figures in the San Francisco and Oakland
areas. Perhaps it was these citizens who helped her to write and publish
her book as both she and her husband were illiterate. We are grateful
to whomever it was that helped her to publish these splendid recipes.
She hints that they were written "at my dictation." This may account for
a few interesting variant spellings and names of dishes.
For example, her Jumberlie (#119, p.57) is obviously Jambalaya;
her Circuit Hash (#152, p.69) was probably Succotash; the Carolas (#67,
p.31), Crullers; and the Milanaise Sauce used in her recipe for Chicken
Salad (#129, p.58) is certainly mayonnaise.
This is truly a Southern
cookbook: Beat Biscuits, Plantation Corn Bread, Creole Chow Chow, Sweet
Potato Pie, Oyster Gumbo Soup, Ochra Gumbo, Chicken Gumbo, Boiled
Turkey, and Jumberlie - A Creole Dish.
PREFACE AND APOLOGY.
The publication of a book on my knowledge and experience of
Southern Cooking, Pickle and Jelly Making, has been frequently asked
of me by my lady friends and patrons in San Francisco and Oakland,
and also by ladies of Sacramento during the State Fair in 1879. Not
being able to read or write myself, and my husband also having been
without the advantages of an education upon whom would devolve the
writing of the book at my dictation caused me to doubt whether I would
be able to present a work that would give perfect satisfaction. But,
after due consideration, I concluded to bring forward a book of my
knowledge based on an experience of upwards of thirty-five years in
the art of cooking Soups, Gumbos, Terrapin Stews, Meat Stews, Baked
and Roast Meats, Pastries, Pies and Biscuits, making Jellies, Pickles,
Sauces, Ice-Creams and Jams, preserving Fruits, etc. The book will be
found a complete instructor, so that a child can understand it and learn
the art of cooking.
Respectfully,
MRS. ABBY FISHER,

(7)-The blue grass cook book.by Minnie C. Fox-1917, (New York)
424 PDF Pages!
Here
we have an authentic Kentucky cookbook. It went through at least four
additional printings (sometimes, revised) after this first printing in
1904.
It
is suffused with the essence of Kentucky cooking. There are recipes
named Kentucky for Batter Bread, Corn Dodgers, Burgout, Cake, and
Chow-Chow. There are recipes named Blue Grass for Roast Quail, Corn
Pudding, Pudding, Plum Cake, White Cake, Tomato Pickle, and Pastry.
Among the typical Kentucky Beverages can be found: Bourbon Whisky Punch,
Blue Grass Apple Toddy, Old-Fashioned Kentucky Toddy, Kentucky Catawba
Punch, and Kentucky Champagne Punch. Many recipes are attributed to
Marcellus, one of the 10 African-Americans whose photographs grace these
pages. These recipes include Marcellus's: Corn Muffins, Nos. 1-2,
Cornmeal Batter Cakes, Wheat Muffins, Omelet, Potato Soup, Nos. 1-2,
Chocolate Ice Cream, and Peach Ice Cream.
The
Blue Grass Hams section includes Baked Ham ("Never bake a ham under a
year old"); Col. Wm. Rhodes Estill's Recipe for Curing Ham ("Kill your
hogs when the wind is from the northwest"); Ham Cooked in Wine ("Scrub
well and soak an old ham in plenty of water for 48 hours"); Kentucky
Baked Ham ("Take a good magnolia ham 1 or 2 years old and let it soak 36
hours"); and Sugar-Cured Hams (Let the hams lie in dry salt for 4 weeks
after the killing").
This ebook has many other Southern recipes in addition to its specific Kentucky flavor.

(8)La Cuisine Creole By Lafcadio Hearn,New Orleans 1885
280 PDF Pages!
La
Cuisine Creole: A Collection of Culinary Recipes, From Leading Chefs
and Noted Creole Housewives, Who Have Made New Orleans Famous for its
Cuisine.
This is one of the great classics of Creole cuisine. It was
anonymously printed in 1885 but its authorship by the famed writer
Lafcadio Hearn is generally accepted.
In his brief but intriguing introduction, Hearn tells us that
Creole cookery partakes of the nature of its birthplace - New Orleans -
blending the characteristics of the American, French, Spanish, Italian,
West Indian and Mexican. That this is true can be ascertained by the
range of recipes. There are also obvious influences from Native
Americans, African Americans, and others in the American melting pot.
We find Gombo Filee and Okra Gombo, Bouille-abaisse,
Grenouilles Frites, Pain Perdu, Sangaree, and a splendid collection of
fish, seafood and game recipes. There are also instructions on The
Service of Wine and a large number of recipes for drinks and cocktails,
including Grand Brule, Gin Fiz, Jamaica Rum Punch, New Orleans Toddy,
and four different versions of Pousse Cafe.
This book has been in and out of print from its first
publication in 1885. In that same year, a second fine New Orleans
cookbook, a charity, was published by the Women's Christian Exchange,
the Creole Cookery Book. These two books, along with Celestine Eustis'
Cooking in Old Creole Days offer a splendid introduction to one of
America's most unique cuisines.

INTRODUCTION
(From eBook)
"La Cuisine Creole" (Creole cookery) partakes of
the nature of its birthplace New Orleans which is
cosmopolitan in its nature, blending the characteristics
of the American, French, Spanish, Italian, West Indian
and Mexican. In this compilation will be found many
original recipes and other valuable ones heretofore un-
published, notably those of Gombo file, Bouille-abaisse,
Courtbouillon, Jambolaya, Salade a la Eusse, Bisque of
Cray-fish a la Creole, Pusse Cafe, Cafe brule, Brulot,
together with many confections and delicacies for the
sick, including a number of mixed drinks. Much do-
mestic contentment depends upon the successful prepa-
ration of the meal; and as food rendered indigestible
through ignorance in cooking often creates discord and
unhappiness, it behooves the young housekeeper to
learn the art of cooking.
It is the author's endeavor to present to her a number
of recipes all thoroughly tested by experience, and em-
bracing the entire field of the "Cuisine," set forth in
such clear, concise terms, as to be readily understood
and easily made practicable, thereby unveiling the
mysteries which surround her, upon the entree into the
kitchen. Economy and simplicity govern "La Cuisine
Creole ' ' ; and its many savory dishes are rendered palat-
able more as the result of care in their preparation than
any great skill or expensive outlay in the selection of
materials. The Creole housewife often makes delicious
morceaux from the things usually thrown away by the
extravagant servant. She is proud of her art, and de-
servedly receives the compliments of her friends. This
volume will be found quite different from the average
cook-book in its treatment of recipes, and is the only
one in print containing dishes peculiar to "la Cuisine
Creole."

(9)-Dishes & Beverages of the Old South eBook -By Martha McCulloch-Williams./New York 1913
328 PDF Pages!!
This
is a romantic look back at southern foods and foodways. Typical of many
other such books following the Civil War, there is a touching,
nostalgic (condescending) evocation of the author's Mammy and her
cooking.
Painful as some of this is to read today, we find an underlying
love and admiration for the Mammy and a feeling of loss for the "good
old days." If one can pass by this aspect of the book, one can learn a
great deal about an antebellum Southern kitchen.
Every chapter contains
good, solid Southern recipes. Many pages are required to discuss all the
variations on the theme of the pig and pork: how to select, cure,
pickle, make hams, hang hams, smoke, Render Lard, Prepare Fried Hog's
Feet, Souse and Hog's Foot Oil and Jelly. We also have Barbecued Rabbit,
Squirrel Smothered, Possum Roasted, Fried Chicken, Fig Pudding, Fried
Pies, Sweet Potato Custard, Molasses Pie, Blackberry Mush, and Baked
Peaches.
There
are sections on Creole Cookery, and fascinating discussions on the
foods and festivities associated with special occassions - Weddings,
Christmas, Birthday Barbecues, and Political Barbecues, among others.

(10)-New Orleans cook book
By New Orleans. Parker Memorial M. E. church, South. [from old catalog]
100 PDF Pages

PREFACE. "Man may live without books.
What is knowledge but grieving?
He may live without hope.
What is hope but deceiving'?
He may live without love,
What is passion but pining?
But where is the man that can live without dining?"
The promoters of this modest enterprise hesitate to
claim for it that it fills a long- felt want; there are other
cook books containing- vastly more information in which
the resources and products of the Frigid Zone and the
Tropics are drawn on for the purpose of whetting- the
human appetite.
The sphere of this little book is more limited, but we
feel that it will appeal with great force to its limited circle,
for it is especially adapted to their wants — the ingredients
called for in the recipes given are always to be had in sea-
son in our own markets, and many of the appetizing dishes
for which New Orleans and Louisiana are noted, are here-
in described.
It has not been the aim in compiling- these recipes, to
tell all we know, or all that our friends know, but out of
the g-enerous responses to our requests for "two or three
of your very best," we have selected these as the "best of
the best." Very few, if any, are original — many have
been tried and tested by the mothers and grandmothers of
the donors, while others are more modern — thoroughly
"up-to-date;" but each recipe carries the enthusiastic re-
commendation of her whose name is subscribed thereto,
and one has but to read over these names to be convinced
that we are not too optimistic in expressing the belief that
this collection will please all who make use of it."
