NYPL cookbooks (part three)

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

    A little more (what I was able to do from 5:30-7:15 p.m.) from New York
Public Library cookbooks.

PIZZA--John Mariani's ENCYCLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN FOOD & DRINK, pg. 244, states
that "cookbooks of the early twentieth century that give recipes for Italian
dishes do not list pizza, but by the 1950s they could be found in American
collections..."  Pizza is on pages 288-289 of HERBS FOR THE KITCHEN (1939) by
Irma Goodrich Mazza.

MASHED POTATOES--John Mariani's EAF&D, pg. 252, ""'Mashed potatoes' (first in
print in 1896)..."  "To Mash Potatoes" is in THE HOUSEKEEPER'S BOOK
(Philadelphia, 1837), pg. 96.

HERMIT COOKIES--Mariani's EAF&D and DARE have 1896.  "Hermit Cookies" are on
page 148 of THE WEB-FOOT COOK BOOK (Portland, Ore., 1885).

JUMBLES--Mariani's EAF&D, pg. 173, states that the first printed recipe for
"jumbles" is in 1839.  "Jumbles" is in THE HOUSEKEEPER'S BOOK (1837), pg.
134.  DARE appears to have an 1827 version.

DEEP DISH APPLE PIE--This is on page 591 of EVERYBODY'S COOK BOOK (1925),
edited by Isabel Ely Lord.  DARE has two earlier cites of "deep apple pie" in
1906 and "deep-dish fruit pies" in 1924.

BOWKNOTS--Another citation for "Bowknots" (bow ties) is EVERYBODY'S COOK BOOK
(1925), pg. 608.

CURLY PETERS--These cookies are on page 160 of EVERYBODY'S COOK BOOK (1925).
Anyone else have a Curly Peters citation anywhere?

LOBSTER NEWBERG--"Lobster a la Newberg" is in GATHERED CRUMBS: PEORIA COOK
BOOK (1894), pg. 23.

ICED TEA--A quick Dow Jones check shows about 80 recent hits for "iced tea"
and "1904" St. Louis Fair.  Maybe _facts_ are totally irrelevant?  Anyway,
yet another citation is GATHERED CRUMBS: PEORIA COOK BOOK (1894), pg. 302.

HAMBURGER STEAK--Another citation is GATHERED CRUMBS: PEORIA COOK BOOK
(1894), pg. 41.

FRENCH FRIED POTATOES--French Fried Potatoes is on page 85 of GATHERED
CRUMBS: PEORIA COOK BOOK (1894): "Peel the potatoes, and cut up in small
pieces about one inch long and one-half inch thick, then fry them in lard as
you do doughnuts."
