One Hearth, One Pot: For Love of Food and History (Volume 1)

By Clarissa Clifton

Have you ever wondered how slaves or dirt farmers were able to cook meals on the hearth with just one pot? This is a cookbook that focuses on recipes that require only one cast iron Dutch oven for cooking. I have seen how magical the hearth can be when a pot is hanging over the fire and the wonderful smells send out a silent call for complete strangers to gather around it. One Hearth, One Pot: For Love of Food and History is a collection of recipes that I have cooked while giving food history demonstrations. I am a cook, not a professional chef, meaning that each recipe is flexible depending on my budget and pantry. So, feel free to put your own stamp of history on each recipe. For those who are interested in food history I hope it will encourage you to volunteer at a living history museum. You will be amazed at how many people walk up to the hearth as strangers and leave as friends just because of one little pot bubbling on the hearth.
