From baked beans to apple cider, from clam chowder to pumpkin pie, Keith Stavely and Kathleen Fitzgerald's culinary history reveals the complex and colorful origins of New England foods and cookery. Featuring hosts of stories and recipes derived from generations of New Englanders of diverse backgrounds, America's Founding Food chronicles the region's cuisine, from the English settlers' first encounter with Indian corn in the early seventeenth century to the nostalgic marketing of New England dishes in the first half of the twentieth century. Focusing on the traditional foods of the region--including beans, pumpkins, seafood, meats, baked goods, and beverages such as cider and rum--the authors show how New Englanders procured, preserved, and prepared their sustaining dishes. Placing the New England culinary experience in the broader context of British and American history and culture, Stavely and Fitzgerald demonstrate the importance of New England's foods to the formation of American identity, while dispelling some of the myths arising from patriotic sentiment. At once a sharp assessment and a savory recollection, America's Founding Food sets out the rich story of the American dinner table and provides a new way to appreciate American history.
Excerpt from The New Bedford Practical Receipt Book Take a round of beef that weighs twenty pounds, cut out the bone and wrap the skin over so as to make a handsome round. Wash and drain it; grate a large nutmeg, as much salt and a little less of pounded cloves, mix them together and rub over the sides of the meat well. Then pour over three pints of Claret or Port wine, and let it remain all night. Take a long piece of strong cloth the width of the beef, wind it round very tight and sew it. Make the stuffing of two pounded crackers, sweet marjoram, pepper, salt, a nutmeg, butter, wine and one or two eggs, cut deep holes in it and put in the stuffing. Then rub over as much spice and salt as you did before. Put a piece of twine or tape over it, that it may more easily be taken from the pot.
