Annotation: 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 multi-ethnic flavors of American cuisine of the 1830s. The recipes will be a delight to modern cooks-especially the 22 flavors of ice cream!
