Now that I am mostly done with my seasonal canning, I can spend my time inventing different catsups. I hadn't had much luck finding recipes online until it occurred to me to search old cookbooks on Internet Archive, so I am now doing that. Opposition research, you know.
In the process, however, I keep seeing things I want to tell people about, so this is now a thread for that. You guys should help, and also tell me if you find any catsup receipts.
I'll start off with "
Stewed Cucumbers," from
Just a few tried and true receipts : being a manuscript cookbook printed and sold for the benefit of the Providence Day Nursery Association and social settlement work in the city of Providence, Rhode Island by Metcalf, Isabel Harris
Quote:
STEWED CUCUMBERS
A seasonable dish may be prepared by paring cucumbers, cutting them in half lengthwise, boiling them gently till tender in salted water, laying them on toast, and pouring over them white sauce or drawn butter, to which a cup of milk has been added.
