DOWNLOAD EBOOK →“A charming compilation of eighteenth-century recipes . . . a well-researched account of Mrs. Horry’s fascinating life-style.” —The North Carolina Historical Review Harriott Pinckney Horry began her receipt book more than two hundred years ago. 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

To discover the true role of black women in the creation of American, and especially southern, cuisine, Toni Tipton-Martin has spent years amassing one of the world’s largest private collections of cookbooks published by African American authors, looking for evidence of their impact on American food, families, and communities and for ways we might use that knowledge to inspire community wellness of every kind. The Jemima Code presents more than 150 black cookbooks that range from a rare 1827 house servant’s manual, the first book published by an African American in the trade, to modern classics by authors such as Edna Lewis and Vertamae Grosvenor. The books are arranged chronologically and illustrated with photos of their covers; many also display selected interior pages, including recipes. Tipton-Martin provides notes on the authors and their contributions and the significance of each book, while her chapter introductions summarize the cultural history reflected in the books that follow. These cookbooks offer firsthand evidence that African Americans cooked creative masterpieces from meager provisions, educated young chefs, operated food businesses, and nourished the African American community through the long struggle for human rights. The Jemima Code transforms America’s most maligned kitchen servant into an inspirational and powerful model of culinary wisdom and cultural authority.

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.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Jumbles and puffs, monkey pudding, Dixie biscuits, pond lily salad, lightning cake, and foolish pie are just a few of the delightful names of dishes included in this collection, alongside more familiar foods such as crackling corn bread, lobster croquettes, celery soup, potato pies, and bread pudding. Found by researchers exploring the attic at Catalpa plantation, these �receipts� date back to 1870. When Daniel and Martha Turnbull began in 1820 to build an estate that would eventually encompass seven plantations, they could not have known that for more than 120 years, their family would continue to live, thrive, and enjoy good food at Rosedown. Two of the Turnbulls� grandchildren married into the Fort family of Catalpa Plantation, thus joining these distinguished families together. Nearly three hundred recipes originating from English and Scottish relatives, slave cooks, and neighbors in West Feliciana Parish are included here, preceded by a brief history of plantation life and plantation cooking in the antebellum South, as well as firsthand memories of Rosedown. These recipes are used in the present-day Rosedown Plantation kitchen demonstrations.
