Southern Food Quotes

There was nothing on the table, when I was invited to it, except some cold salt pork and pickled beets; but as long as I remained, at intervals of two or three minutes, additions would be made, till at last there had accumulated five different preparations of swine’s flesh, and two or three of corn, most of them just cooked; the only vegetable, pickled beets. — Frederick Law Olmsted, A Journey in the Seaboard Slave States, 1861

Make a dressing by chopping together bread, mush-
rooms, oysters, salt, pepper, onions, celery, parsley and
hard boiled eggs, then fry about 15 minutes in butter; put
this in turkey and rub with oil, flour, salt and pepper.
Put in pan, add water, baste frequently and bake, allow-
ing 20 minutes to the pound.
—Mrs. Martha Pritchard Stanford, Old and New Cook Book, 1904
