A REAL Vinegar Pie Recipe!

I was traveling with girlfriends last year and we went through Charleston SC. A local "hole-in-the-wall" eating joint served us a slice vinegar pie. I purchased this book with the VINEGAR PIE recipe so I can surprise my girlfriends by baking it myself.

One of the best pioneer cookbooks ever!

i have read many cookbooks that include "resipes from the olden times" but this one was wonder full there were so many great resipes! my favorite was the skillet bread and the pancakes made with the sour dough starter! a great tool for any teacher who wants to add an authentic feel to a cowbot lesson or even on Lewis and Clark i highly recommmend this! :)
