Black History Month | Write It! Day 3 | What Mrs. Fisher Knows About Old Southern Cooking
Abby Fisher is the cook behind the second known cookbook by a black woman in the United States, find out more about her life and who could play her should her life ever be brought to the screen.
Official Summary: What Mrs. Fisher Knows About Old Southern Cooking is a cookbook written in 1881 by former slave Abby Fisher, who had moved from Mobile, Alabama, to San Francisco.
My Thoughts: As a fan of most things vintage, I was so pleased to find such an old cookbook
with recipes made and cooked by a woman of African descent. Abby Fisher learned these recipes
on a plantation in the 19th century. I look forward to mastering the recipes of the talented Mrs. Fisher.
