5-0 out of 5 stars What mrs Fisher Knows....
This book goes into my historical collection of recipes, many are more simple than contemporary recipes.

5-0 out of 5 stars Not just a cookbook
This is more than a cookbook (because most recipes you can't recreate), it is a historical account of life as a slave cook.

3-0 out of 5 stars What Mrs. fisherknows about Old Southern Cooking
The recipes are cleverly presented but they consist of brief summaries or notes about cooking.

4-0 out of 5 stars Interesting for the student of African-American Gastronomy
"What Mrs. Fisher Knows" is a charming antique and should be read by anyone with an interest in African-American or Southern cookery, or anyone who would like to re-create authentic 19th century American cuisine.

This reprint of "What Mrs. Fisher Knows" was brought into being by Karen Hess.Hess has provided an informative introduction to the recipes (which are reproduced in their entirety), explaining many 19th century cooking concepts which may be unfamiliar to the modern cook and providing as much of Abby Fisher's story as can be found.In Fisher's original text it is interesting to see some of the earliest known written recipes for several dishes and to discover others which are almost unknown today.Fisher's original recipes are typical of 19th century (and earlier) cookbooks.Each recipe is several sentences in a single paragraph, with no separate ingredient list.In many cases it is assumed that the cook will know how to prepare something that is taken as a given in the recipe.This is a cookbook from a time when all cooking was "from scratch", when there were few labor-saving kitchen gadgets, and printed books were luxury items.It is not a step-by-step cookbook.[For that, see Chef Paul Prudhomme or Southern Living.]

"Good Things to Eat" by Rufus Estes is sometimes called the first cookbook written by an African-American."What Mrs. Fisher Knows" was published thirty years earlier.(It could be said that Mrs. Fisher, a former slave, did not actually "write" the book as she evidently did not know how to write; she dictated the recipes to a member of the Women's Cooperative Printing Office in San Francisco which published the work in 1881.)

(The editor, Karen Hess has done similar work on Mary Randolph's "The Virginia Housewife" and "Martha Washington's Booke of Cookery and Booke of Sweetmeats".)

4-0 out of 5 stars Historical Treasure
As soon as I learned of this book's existence, I ordered a copy for myself.I love cooking (and cookbooks), and I am also fascinated by the kind of first-person, anecdotal history that can be derived from the writings or records of ordinary people living long ago.This work--the first cookbook by an African-American, actually a former slave, originally published in 1881-- appeals to both of those interests, and, in addition, is a curious little conversation piece to display on a bookshelf. The recipes are not ones you will turn to each night when making dinner, but they are fun to experiment with, as long as you rewrite the directions first in their proper order (they are written in a stream-of-consciousness style), and as long as you read the historical notes that define the units of measure used in the recipes.This book could be a great guide for a "historical reinactment" of a Civil War era dinner, or, if not, then it is at least a selective culinary history of the Old South.Most interesting to me are the medicinal recipes, like blackberry syrup as a remedy for dysentery, and the recipe for "infant diet."This edition contains not only the original cookbook, but an informative afterword that explains some historical facts about Mrs. Fisher and the society around her.I would recommend this book to anyone interested in American history, African-American history, or the art of cooking. ...

From the supplier: Industrial fryers have various filtration systems to eliminate fines, or crumbs which come off fried products. Some fryers, such as that of Sandusky, OH-based Stein Inc., have a built-in removal system that removes fines that settle to the bottom of the trough. The Model 300 Fines Removal Filter from Waterford, MI-based Midwest Process Equipment is placed at the end of the fryer. However, fines are best removed by circulating fryer oil through a filter, such as that of Hayward, CA-based Heat and Control Inc.

Product Description
A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That: Cooking with Paumanok Preserves is a cookbook that encourages cooks, from neophyte to accomplished, to expand their horizons, to think 'outside the box.' Paumanok Preserves products can be the "secret ingredients" that boost a menu from the conventional to the sublime. All the recipes in this book were once basic fare. With the addition of a spoonful of jam or marmalade, a quarter cup of fruit butter or wine jelly, a cup of chili sauce, a dab of mustard "mizzle", or a dash of pepper jelly, Joan Bernstein elevates ordinary kitchen fare to gourmet significance. Her entertaining anecdotes about growing up in a family of cooks add to the fun. ... Read more

Product Description
Preserves, Pickles, Sauces And Masalas
by Kanchan Kabra

Lots of recipe books are available in the market, but very less number of books is available for recipes of preserves, sauces, seasoning, and pickles!! Why?

Because the making of such things require lot of experience and expertise otherwise you will end up making something which cannot be stored for a long time. Most of the sauces, seasoning, and pickles are prepared during the season of the fruit or vegetable or spices and stored and used for the entire year or even more.

Any kinds of preserves like sauces, sherbets, jams, and pickles are boon to households, when we run out of vegetables, pickle can be served. Pickles served with puris or paranthas taste even better than vegetables. When guests come you can serve them with sherbets or milk shakes by making the drinks in just no time by using saffron syrup or any other syrups.

Blended spices can be made and stored and can be used as and when required to enhance the palatability of any simple dish.

This book is a combination of various preserves, which will be helpful in long run.

Happy making!!! .........Cheers

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent, Creative
I love this book. First time I got it from my local library. I made a few recipes and came out great. And are something else that the usual standard fruit recipes. Of course, you can make these, but the author brings additional ideas to go beyond and come out with new flavors. I did preserves as Holidays gifts and came out great.
I ended up buying the book. I LOVE it.

This book is filled with mouth-watering recipes for all sorts of jams, jellies, chutneys and sauces.The beginning has lessons with step-by-step photos on making jams, jellies marmalades, and candied fruits, the equipment needed and the process of canning.

The recipes in this book are delicious and some are quite unique to me. It is filled with photographs to make you want to try a recipe, and the photography is outstanding.There is even a recipe on candied rose petals and rosepetal jam, along with rosehip syrup, and rose petal sorbet.Several morrocan and indian recipes as well.It even covers nuts(ex:pecan and whisky mincemeat, pistachio and pear conserve, coconut relish, plum and orange jam with hazelnuts).On the fruit side, there are such recipes and honeyed peel (very simple but very elegant), orange peel scrolls, clementine ratfia, pickled kumquats with cardamon, kumquats in vodka and cointreau, grapefruit and apple curd,roast loin of pork with gooseberry sauce, gooseberry sauce, fig conserve, spiced figs, nectarines in white wine syrup, apricot brandy, prune, dried fuit and pecan compote, dried peach and chestnut chutney, etc.
