what i love about the internet. in this picture i see the wine bottle, so look up ficklin vineyards and read a nice history on the making of a winemaking family tradition.

i feel a little more cultured today.

I have one from 1958, it's pretty gross. It has a chapter on rabbits. grandma gave it to me two fucking weeks ago thinking I could use it.

I've never tried it, so I can't know if I like it or not. It's just so dated. When she dies, I'll have more recipes than I could ever read in ten years. She's one of those packrats, but her fetish is recipes and cookbooks.

I want to exaggerate but she has so much shit that I'll read through.

Good food doesn't go out of style. People have been eating rabbit for trillions of years.

I have a cookbook from 1922... its packed away at the moment as I just moved two weeks ago, wish I could tell you the title or take a picture of it. Its in incredibly good condition, too.

1) It pretty much assumes you already know how to cook - it does not give you any instructions as to techniques and whatnot.
2) As I recall, its a bit loose on the amounts of ingredients you'll need - there are some exact measurements, but see #1.
3) The author tells a fond story of a "negro" chef he met once and shares some recipes from him. In fact, he uses that word a LOT when referring to this guy. You can tell the author doesn't mean it maliciously and that he has a fondness and/or admiration for this guy, but its disturbing by modern standards.

I'm glad you put that chapter of your life away and now eat regular, good food.

What's wrong with the word negro? It's a little old fashioned but I don't see that it has negative connotations. It's the name of the man's race.

Also rabbits are fucking delicious.

>implying rabbit loin isn't awesome

Just because 98% of the rabbit's edible body mass is gnarly, tough, unpalatable garbage doesn't take away from the two bites of deliciousness.

I don't have any pics (at least, not on this computer), but I have tons of old cookbooks. My oldest one dates back to 1923 or something like that. My favorites (as far as just looking through) are the food gore quality ones from the mid-century, though. Those are hilarious.

My family has a couple bayou-country cookbooks they got while they were in Louisiana. If you ever need a recipe for how to cook raccoon, I've got it.
