It is being published now for the first time. You will get a lively sense of what colonial plantation life was like from reading Harriott’s receipt book. She began it in 1770, shortly after she was married, writing recipes and household information in a notebook. Her recipes reflect both English and French culinary traditions. You will recognize in the recipes the origins of some of your contemporary favorites. Harriott writes also about keeping the dairy and smokehouse, how to dye clothes, what to do about insects, how to care for trees and crops, and how to make soap, all skills she learned in the course of managing the plantation after her husband’s early death. From Harriott’s writing and Hooker’s knowledgeable introduction and editorial notes, you will learn what it was like to be well-to-do and a member of Southern aristocracy, living in a world of rice and indigo planters, merchants, lawyers, and politicians—the colonial elite. Because knowing about food preferences and eating habits of any people expands our understanding of their nature and times, the receipt book of Harriott Pinckney Horry opens another window on the history of colonial plantations. “Gives us a very good idea of the household’s prize dishes.” —The Washington Post “Cookbook collectors will love it and even readers who don’t enter the kitchen will find it entertaining.” —The Charleston Evening Post

ABOUT THE AUTHOR In 1958 Marcelle Reese Couhig, known as "Nootsie," and her husband Robert purchased the Asphodel Plantation in West Feliciana Parish. With the family occupying one portion of the Asphodel Plantation, the Couhigs opened a restaurant in another part of the house. Couhig operated her own gift shop in the plantation, notable for its many unique dollhouses and miniatures. Although the family eventually moved from Asphodel, they continued to operate the restaurant until the late 1980s. Couhig is widely remembered in "Asphodel Village" for her original bread recipe, known as Asphodel Bread-a recipe she divulges in her cookbook.
