Common-Place publishes its April 2011 edition

Food, glorious food! What did nineteenth-century Americans eat? History Education Hawaii reports that the April 2011 edition of Common-place, and online journal of history published by the American Antiquarian Society:


In the new issue of Common-place, Guest Editor David S. Shields, McClintock Professor of Southern Letters at the University of South Carolina, takes readers on a tour of “American Food in the Age of Experiment.”


Point your browser to http://www.common-place.org to learn more about foods that have disappeared from our kitchens (think pigeon and mangel wurtzel) and efforts to restore nineteenth-century grains and recover the foodways of enslaved people.


And if you are wondering what to cook for dinner, peruse our cookbook of “various receipts” for Fricassee of Squirrels, Succotash, a la Tecumseh, and Watermelon juice.


Bon appétit!
