What Mrs. Fisher Knows About Old Southern Cooking: Soups, Pickles, Preserves, Etc. is a cookbook written by Abby Fisher and first published in 1881. Fisher was a former slave who became a successful cook and entrepreneur in San Francisco during the late 19th century. The book contains recipes for a variety of traditional Southern dishes, including soups, pickles, preserves, and other preserved foods. It also includes recipes for main dishes, side dishes, and desserts, as well as tips for cooking and preparing ingredients. Many of the recipes in the book reflect the cooking styles and ingredients of the time, and some may be unfamiliar to modern readers. However, the book provides a valuable insight into the history of Southern cuisine and the contributions of African American cooks to American culinary traditions. Overall, What Mrs. Fisher Knows About Old Southern Cooking is a fascinating and historically significant cookbook that offers a glimpse into the culinary traditions of the American South during the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
