December 31

12-31

Chicken Pie
Curried Rice
Steamed Squash
*Frozen Tomato Salad
Cheese Wafers
Fig Pudding, Wine Sauce

In 1914 December 31 was a Thursday. And this is the last menu of the year.

The Curried Rice comes from a new (to me) source, The Boston Cooking-School Magazine, specifically the January 1902 issue. I may be able to find more of the missing recipes from the past year there.

In honor of the end of the year and the end of this project, I present Frozen Tomato Salad!

Cream of Pea Soup
Croûtons
Beef Pie
*Escalloped Cabbage
Moulded Rice, Wine Sauce

In 1914 November 3 was a Tuesday.

I think the Moulded Rice is just that — hot rice pressed into a form. No recipe has appeared yet. I guess the addition of wine sauce makes it dessert.
