Recipes form Miss Daisy's Tea Room

This is just wonderful. About 20 years ago, I was in the Nashville, Tennessee area for a luncheon with a convention and several of us went for lunch at Miss Daisy's Tea Room. It was just outside Nashville, maybe in Franklin, Tenn. Anyway, the food was wonderful and I purchased the book, which is spiral bound and soft cover. The recipes are actual ones that can be cooked at home without breaking the bank trying to buy all the products to use with the recipes. The book has everything you can think of and REALLY IS USEABLE. I just gave one to a friend of mine who moved into a new house. She loves the book and you will too. I am not sure if the tea room is still there are not, but the cookbook is still going strong. Oh yes, the book has some nice things for entertaining too. It was a keeper 20 years ago and it still is! Enjoy!!

Recipes from my Nashville childhood, found at last!

This cookbook is a real treasure of good Southern cooking. These are the very dishes that made Miss Daisy's Tearoom a Nashville landmark. Miss Daisy's Tearoom has been such a pervasive influence on cooking in Nashville that my mother and all her friends must have been cooking from this cookbook back when I was growing up in Nashville. Amazingly to me, here are the very recipes my mother cooked from before her recipes got lost in a move! Until I picked up this book, I had given up hope of being able to duplicate certain beloved dishes, like the Christmas Ribbon Salad that used to grace our buffet table in its red-green-and-white glory whenever we had a party, as well as the Fresh Apple Cake that I used to help make by grating the Granny Smith apples. This book is chock-full of delectable recipes, and I highly recommend it to all who want to have a taste of Nashville's culinary heritage. My gratitude to Miss Daisy herself, for sharing her recipes with us!
