Call NumberF158PublisherThe Virginia housewife, or, Methodical cook : a facsimile of an authentic early American cookbook / Mary Randolph
AuthorRandolph, MaryDescriptionMary Randolph (August 9, 1762ñJanuary 23, 1828) wrote The Virginia House-Wife (1824), the first American regional cookbook. Her recipes used Virginia produce but also showed influences from African, American Indian, and European cultures, thereby creating a cuisine unique to Virginia and the South. Randolph's influential housekeeping book was an immediate success and went through many editions until the 1860s. It included both culinary instructions and advice on household supervision. Besides popularizing the use of more than forty vegetables, Randolph's book also introduced dishes from abroad, such as gazpacho, to the southern public.Call NumberTX715 .R215 1993PublisherISBN9780486277721
