Attend the two-class series by Leni Sorensen at a special ticket price of $90
1.The Virginia House-Wife - Leni’s current long-term project is to cook her way through The Virginia House-Wife by Mary Randolph. She will be talking about the accessibility of spices during the 18th and 19th centuries and cooking a curry recipe from the book.
2. Southern Foodways - In the late 19th century, several African American cookbooks reflect the migration of Southern foodways. The pickles and spiced sauces in Mrs. Abby Fisher’s book and the elite dining service detailed in Rufus Estes’ 1911 book will be our inspiration.
