great cookbook very old fashioned

This is a reprint of a book printed in the early 1900's. It is really cool and the couple of recipes I have tried have been super. Some of the recipes have ingredients that are hard to find.

Excellent New Orleans Cookbook

This represents a marvelous slice of life in Old New Orleans and contains many treasured recipes. A great find!

Reproduces the second, 1901 edition in its entirety

The reprint of this classic cookbook shouldn't be missed: The Picayune's Creole Cook Book reproduces the second, 1901 edition in its entirety, returning to print a classic which preserved traditional creole cooking upon the brink of its extinction. Introductions explain history and recipes alike. No photos, but those interested in Creole history and culture won't miss them.

Historical Cooking

And hysterical if you're reading how to skin the squirrel before you cook it! A fantastic book with authentic Louisiana recipes originally published in 1947. Adapt those recipes that call for cooking on the hearth or for large quantities -- the jumbalaya would feed an army. Great food history as well as great food.
