Publisher Description: Originally published in 1838, Randolph's work is more than just a regional cookbook. While gathering the best of Southern cooking, it also gives a picture of dishes that were popular around the country at the time. Reflecting the influence of cuisines from other cultures, The Virginia Housewife preserves the multiethnic flavors of American cuisine of the 1830s. The recipes will be a delight to modern cooks-especially the 22 flavors of ice cream |
