Two things to check out on Google News: Barry Popik (me) and Bonnie
Slotnick.

Bonnie Slotnick's cookbook store is well known to Andy Smith and
others on this list. I passed by to tell her about my articles, and
found out she was just on Reuters!

Old-Time Cookbooks Big Draw at New York Store
Fri Sep 3, 2004 06:27 PM ET

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Old cookbooks never die -- in fact, they are not
often willingly surrendered. One woman even took her beloved Betty
Crocker book to the grave.

Cookbook connoisseur Bonnie Slotnick has heard many of these tales,
whispered or recalled with laughter, about women so attached to their
cookbooks that they end up practically being "dragged out of dying
hands."

"The bottom line for a lot of people is ... this craving for comfort
that cookbooks supply," Slotnick said as curious customers browsed in
her tiny Greenwich Village shop.

My web site, "the Big Apple" (www.barrypopik.com), is up and has been
mentioned on eGullet and Food History News and this week in the
Toronto Globe and Mail. I originally just wanted to explain the Big
Apple for the Big Apple Fest (www.bigapplefest.org), but I have about
40 New York City foods on the site (bagel, bialy, cheesecake, hot
dogs, for example).

REC.FOOD.HISTORIC--I tried to post a few weeks ago and was told that I
had "too many posts" on rec.food.historic. This is insane. I have tons
of food research riches that normally would be shared here, but I have
and will be posting in other places.

That certainly is insane. With the exception of abandoned
groups, this has to be one of the lowest-volume
regularly-used text groups on Usenet. Who told you that you
had "too many posts" on rec.food.historic?

That came on some form response from Google. It's to prevent SPAM, I
guess. I'm a member of the Culinary Historians of NY, a contributor to
the Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America, and a consultant
and contributor to the Oxford English Dictionary and the Dictionary of
American Regional English. I'm not coming on here to sell penis
enlargements.

As an example of stuff that I post in other places, this is a post I

My web site was kindly mentioned by the editor on the FOOD HISTORY

FHN 61, with a cover story on "Roquefort French Dressing."

The first citation found was 1928.

1. Economical Housekeeping; Winter Lettuce.
Jane Eddington. Chicago Daily Tribune (1872-1963). Chicago, Ill.: Nov
5, 1913. p. 13 (1 page) :
The following salad dressings have been given by a woman who thinks of
nothing so much as of her home.
'
THOUSAND ISLAND DRESSING.--Make a heavy creamy mayonnaise. Put some
chili sauce in a bowl; chop it with a knife so that there will be no
large pieces of tomato, and then mix this with the mayonnaise. Mrs. B.
said this could not be told from that served at the most expensive
hotels.

This is one of the numerous ways of modifying mayonnaise, but as to
what the new and popular Thousand Island dressing is, probably chefs
of today differ and often vary an idea a bit and call the products by
their own names. One of the dressings served by this name is
undoubtedly a Hollandaise fressing, which is really a hot Mayonnaise,
made by adding butter to egg, bit by bit, instead of oil, and the
chili sauce and perhaps some other additions.

The Roquefort dressings are rather popular today. Mrs. B. makes hers
as follows:

ROQUEFORT DRESSING.--Make a thick French dressing (put your seasonings
of salt and pepper or paprika in a bowl); add a little vinegar, then
stir in oil until it is thick; then rub into this Roquefort cheese
enough to form a thick paste; then thin just before serving with
whipped cream.

Our fathers and grandfathers used to eat their lettuce with sugar and
vinegar. The larger part of this world eats it with the simplest of
French dressings, but in winter the cooked dressing is good, and also
any of these thicker mixtures, which can always be thinned with cream
to advantage.
