Pioneer America: Recipes and Herbs from the 1800s

By Douglas M. Dubrish

Step into the warm, inviting world of Pioneer America - Recipes and Herbs from the 1800s, where the smell of fresh homemade bread wafts from the oven, capturing the heart of pioneer cooking. This collection brings American pioneer history to life with rustic recipes and traditional herbs that nourished early settlers and sustained their families. From hearty homemade bread recipes-both white and wheat-to a beautifully flaky pie crust recipe, these pages are filled with the flavors and simplicity of pioneer life.
Early Americans relied on more than food alone; they used pioneer herbal medicine in the form of poultices, plasters, and traditional infusions made from everyday plants like summer savory, marjoram, parsley, sage, and thyme. These pioneer herbs were essential in herbal remedies that healed and comforted when no doctor was available.
With over 20 recipes, this book offers a delicious look into historical American recipes and the early American cuisine that helped shape the resilience and ingenuity of our ancestors. Let this be your guide to cooking with herbs and a wonderful link to our historical past.
