Rufus Estes Good Things to Eat

The cookbooks was very interesting. i found receipes that my grandmother used many years ago when i was a small child. Good Eats and flavorful dishes too!

Must Have!

It is an honor for me to purchase a cookbook written by the first published African American chef. I am looking forward to duplicating the dishes... He made it so easy to follow so anyone can do this.

History through 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.

It's refreshing to read a title from the past

Dover Publications has reprinted Rufus Estes' Good Things to Eat: The First Cookbook by an African-American Chef, the first cookbook by an Afro-American chef, returning this time-lost 1911 culinary classic to print. It's refreshing to read a title from the past which doesn't skimp on the lard or the fats, and intriguing to read about Estes' Southern childhood and early years as a railway attendant, while the easy recipes for Baked Milk (an early form of custard), or Parsnip Fritters.
