The Angel Food Cake recipe traces back to early 19th-century America, with the first known recipe appearing in Lettice Bryan’s 1839 cookbook, "The Kentucky Housewife", It is also said to have been adapted by the frugal Pennsylvania Dutch cooks in an effort to use the egg whites after making noodles with only egg yolks. No matter, it is always a fresh and summer favourite.

Baking Contest is this week. Bring your entries to the museum between 3-7pm, Friday the 17th.
Jellied salads were the "bomb" in the early 20th c. Gelatin was first patented in 1845 but home cooks often made their own. But by 1903, the "Jello" trade mark became a household name and a variety of flavours introduced a plethora of possibilities and recipes.
What would you choose for your salad... fruits or vegetables or a mix of both, as I had as a child.

The Waldorf Salad, named for the famous Waldorf Astoria Hotel, was served at a charity dinner in 1896. It started out as a modest appetizer with simple ingredients, apples, celery & mayonnaise on lettuce leaves but by the 1920's it became the most popular dish of the era. Variations included grapes, chicken and finally walnuts were added in 1928 which added to its appeal.
Try your own variation this summer.
Count down to the Baking Contest...11 Days!
