Description
Celebrate President's Day! This cookbook includes authentic old fashioned recipes from Lincoln's family, friends, and old recipes from Springfield area contemporaries (and their descendants) of Abraham Lincoln. Unique offerings such as the recipe for Abraham Lincoln's Molasses Pecan Pie, "Cheap Beer" to Roast Racoon (an actual recipe- not a joke) to the very old and unique recipe for Applesauce Cake... This is the very same cake that is the signature dessert served every year at Lincoln's New Salem Candlelight at New Salem event as this has been authenticated as a community recipe from the original settlers of New Salem, and likely one that storekeeper Abe Lincoln may have sampled when visiting with neighbors. This is a culinary snapshot of the life and foods of Lincoln's era. See the photos for a list of the exact recipes included in the book as well as a list of contributor names.
