In 1914 January 6 was a Tuesday.

The Turkey Soufflé is probably meant to use up the leftovers from the roast turkey on the 4th. I have not yet found a specific recipe for it, but presumably one could make Chicken Soufflé and substitute turkey.

Why Deerfoot Potatoes? Because the best sausages came from Deerfoot Farms in Southborough, Massachusetts! According to an ad in the New York Times in January 1914 they are “Made of the tender meat of dairy fed young porkers, daintily seasoned with selected spices.” Fannie Farmer frequently uses specific, and often local, brands in her recipes.
