Scotch Irish Foodways in America: Recipes from History

By M.M. Drymon

In 1718, the first winter was spent at Casco Bay in Maine by some of the earliest members of the last wave of the English Colonial Diaspora to America: that of a unique cultural blend of peoples that was born in the borderlands of England and Lowland Scotland, spent about two hundred years in the north of Ireland and then moved to America as the Scotch- Irish of the 18th century back country frontier. Scotch Irish Foodways celebrates a traditional diet and explains how it was transformed while also changing America itself. The recipes in this book have been derived from historic sources, cookbooks, and carefully treasured recipes obtained from food historians, family members, and friends.
