Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Amelia Simmons, likely a domestic worker from the Hudson River Valley, authored the first American cookbook in 1796, breaking away from British culinary traditions. Her work, "American Cookery," showcases innovative recipes that highlight the use of herbs, wine, and pearlash, an early baking powder. Notably, it includes the first printed recipe for turkey with cranberries. This cookbook offers a valuable glimpse into early American cuisine, reflecting local ingredients and cooking methods, and is presented in a premium edition on acid-free paper.
