1940 Spaghetti Aquitania Recipe - Glen And Friends Old Cookbook Show
Today's slice of culinary history comes from the corporate flipside of the community cookbook recipes that we normally do. Today Glen will cook a baked spaghetti recipe from the Caruso Recipes cookbook. This baked pasta and cottage cheese recipe is a real slice of comfort food.
½ lb. caruso Spaghetti
2 eggs
½ cup well buttered bread crumbs
1 cup cooked diced carrots
1 cup cottage cheese
¾ cup top milk
2 tbsps. minced parsley or green pepper
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsps. grated onion
2 tbsps. minced pimiento
Cook spaghetti and drain. Add remaining ingredients in order given and mix. Place into a well greased loaf pan. Bake in moderate oven for 45 minutes. unmold onto serving platter. garnish, and serve with finely chopped pecans, almonds, and walnuts mixed as a sprinkle.

When I was a boy, I had to help milk the family's Jersey-cross cow. It was not homogenized or pasteurized. The bucket had to be sterilized, and the cow's udder had to be cleaned carefully. The raw milk was strained through a cloth filter assembly and cooled. The cream was allow to float to the top in a refrigerated jar, achieving some degree of separation. The cream was skimmed off, but not down to where the milk started -- that gave very thick cream. You still had to stir the remaining milk up after skimming the cream, since some cream still remained on top of the milk. My mother would often use the layer of part cream and part milk just like we would use "Half-and-Half" today. Maybe "top milk" just refers to that mixed layer on unhomogenized milk after the thickest cream is removed, so it would call for "Half-and-Half".

@TamarLitvot 2 года назад

I agree. Our milk in the early 50s was not homogenized and the top milk was cream, but not heavy cream.

@salliannebrown8129 2 года назад

That's what I was thinking.

@EastSider48215 2 года назад

Yep, that’s exactly what top milk is. Extra-rich but not quite half & half.

@greese007 2 года назад

I too grew up drinking unpasteurized milk, from cows that I milked. We used a hand-cranked cream separator. Years later, my brother was diagnosed with Crohn's disease, which is now thought to be related to drinking unpasteurized milk. Who knew?

That was one of my thoughts. I found a lunch menu from the ship, and there is a spaghetti dish on it. But it's called Spaghetti Napolitaine. For that dish, Google wanted to give me results for Napolitan spaghetti, most of which just use ketchup as a sauce or a Japanese sauce. But spelled correctly, I found a French language website for spaghetti Napolitaine that translated it to neapolitan and it wasn't cooked in a loaf, just had olive oil, black olives, tuna, and anchovies added to it.

According to my grandmother, top milk was obtained AFTER you poured off the heavy cream. The next day there was a little cream on top of the milk, and when you poured that off it was like half and half or light coffee cream. That is what she called top milk.

@randallthomas5207 2 года назад

Same here. And we called the churn milk “butter milk”. Imagine my disgust when as a four year old we were visiting a friend of my Mom’s and she offered me some butter milk. GHHHAAACCCKKK!!!

@isabellabihy8631 2 года назад

It reminds me of a recipe my mother used to make from left-overs (already boiled noodles, slices of cooked ham) primarily in summer, when ripe tomatoes were available. It was before the time when tomatoes were in the stores all year round. In a small bowl make a royale from two eggs, with salt and pepper. Grease a casserole dish with butter and line with bread crumbs. Cut a few thin slices of cooked ham into little squares, cut an onion into thin slices. Cut the really ripe tomatoes into slices. Into the casserole dish put about half of the noodles, layer half of the tomatoes on top, sprinkle with pepper and oregano, add half of the onion slices, add all of the ham squares, the remainder of the onion, the remainder of the tomatoes. Spice the tomatoes with pepper and oregano. Fill the remainder of the noodles into the casserole. Pour in the royale, and bread crumbs on top and shavings of butter, bake in moderate oven until the bread crumbs are golden brown. Serve with a green salad on the side.

This makes perfect sense to me as someone born in the late 40s. We were Jewish, not Italian-American, but my mother’s kugel (noodle “pudding”) was a baked mixture of egg noodles, cottage cheese and egg. You eat it with a dollop of sour cream on top. (Lithuanian Jews, like my mother, made savory kugel and it was an ongoing epic battle with Galitzianer Jews who made a sweet kugel). Have to add that the cottage cheese and eggs in your recipe and my mother’s provides plenty of protein. No need to add anything!

Maybe "Add the remaining ingredients in the order given and mix" meant mix after each addition. Mixing the egg in first would have coated the spaghetti first before the bread crumbs. A little sharp cheese might improve the flavor. This has real possibilities.

I also profess my delight for the "Old Cookbook Show" on Sunday mornings! A nice goal for the week... I was thinking about why this recipe would be considered "Auquitania" and knew of a luxury liner by that name, as another commenter had suggested, but I'll offer up the southwest portion of France between the Pyrenees mountains and the Atlantic ocean. The Romans (who came and conquered in the 1st century BCE) called this "Gallia Aquitania", so this could have been a "use up the left-overs" dish that the marketing department for Caruso Pasta decided to give a nice Italian-sounding name. It's kind of like a frittata, but with very Americanized ingredients and cooking method.

@portialancaster3442 2 года назад

I was born in 1950. I lived in a small suburb and the local dairy delivered quarts of whole milk to our doorstep; that's why as soon as you said topcream I knew exactly what you were talking about. My mom would skim that cream off the tops of the quarts and save it for coffee. Another thing I remember is my dad's older sister's hand made pasta - no pasta machines back then. Mostly she made noodles which and they were thicker than we're accustomed to today. It took as good 20-25 minutes of boiling to soften them. Finally, I going to try this dish but pre-mix everything before adding the pasta. I'm thinking for a side dish maybe stewed tomatoes or salsa. Sounds good. thank you.

@mjhepburn11 2 года назад

i find it hard to wrap my head around the fact of the long pasta cooking times in the past. if everyone was eating mushy (disintegrated?) noodles, how did pasta manage to gain popularity as a beloved food type? im glad someone figured it out along the way.

@username00009 2 года назад

Maybe pasta wasn’t quite the same as it is now? If the variety of wheat was different, or noodles were thicker, then a longer cooking time may make sense. I know that one person in my family thinks brown rice pasta feels undercooked when it is no longer al dente. Then again, his parents grew up in the time of this cookbook so maybe he’s just used to overly soft pasta.

@GIedits-vf7re 2 года назад

Modern pasta gets mushy much faster. You can see it today if you buy artisan Italian pasta versus most supermarket brands. The Amish also use noodles that don't get so mushy on soup versus your standard bag of "pa Dutch noodles) the big change is probably modern flour

@twixxbar07 2 года назад

Pasta isn't made the same way these days. I don't remember exactly if it's the flour available or something with the commercial process, but you really did have to boil pasta for loooong times pre1950.

@EastSider48215 2 года назад

Pasta manufacturing nowadays is very different from pre-1950, and our pasta is much thinner and smother than it used to be, which is why earlier cookbooks have longer cooking times. Changes in basic ingredients is why cookbooks have to be updated if you want the same finished dish as the original.

some of the recipes made with ricotta or nowadays cottage cheese were originally just made with bechamel, not cheese at all. such as lasagna. ricotta probably gained popularity due to thrift, as it can be made from the whey leftover from mozzarella. its not really the nose in the air traditional ingredient that most italians and chicagoans like to think.

The comfort food, "not challenging" concept reminds me of a session ale. For a lot of people, myself included, beer is a drink that, in its highest expression, is meant to be drunk in quantity. As much as I love a hoppy IPA, or a malty barley wine, for me beer is meant to be drunk in pints (preferably in quantities larger than 1). I'm a relative lightweight and so that means an ordinary bitter with low carbonation, mostly balanced malt and hops with just a slight tendency towards bitterness so as to cleanse your palate. Your last gulp of the third pint should be as delightful as the first gulp of the first pint. Not all beer is that way. For comfort food (at least for me), it's the same way. Its a food meant to be eaten in quantity. You take large mouthfuls from veritable mountains on your plate. The flavors are subtle so that you don't get tired of eating it. The texture is smooth and satisfying so that the last bite is as eagerly anticipated as the first. I don't always want to drink session ale, and I don't always want to eat comfort food. I think both categories can be looked down upon by certain cognescenti. It's important to realise that these are subtle and difficult to master areas of cooking. I love seeing these kinds of things and love seeing people enjoy them as much as I do :-)

Yeah, with ricotta I might dig it. As is with pot cheese...not really.

The recipe above in the book of spaghetti with sausage and apples seems interesting too!

I thought it seemed weird and random. Why put those two things together? Individually they're both good but I wouldn't eat them together.

Sausages and apples are a fine thing. Good savoury sausage and sharp apples - delicious! Sometimes I roast sausage links with apple halves lovely Autumn dish.

When I forgot onions or in a hurry I use dried, minced onions, which I found in a shaker bottle in the spice section. They just need a few minutes to hydrate. Perfect substitution for a dish like this.

I completely understand the "not challenging" aspect of a dish. Not sure I could articulate it to someone else either, but I get it.

I'm interested in your long handled strainer. It's so much easier than lifting the pot with water and pasta to the sink. Please do tell about it. Even if I need to buy another pot with that strainer, it will be worth it. I can't find it on Amazon. And thanks for your channel. We enjoy it so much!

I found one on Webstaurant. I'm so glad i watched your video. It was fun and I'm going to save myself grief when I pour our pasta with this kitchen tool that makes that cooking task safer.

This reminds me of an italian kugel..which as someone who is a Heinz 57 herself ...sounds like fusion I can get behind lol. My Nonna did make something like this but also used no meat...usually rapini,spinach and eggs

Some grilled pinon (pinyon) nuts instead of the chopped mixed nuts? And Hatch green chillies, cumin & small cubes of ham, yum yum. Hi Jules!

@CrowManyClouds 2 года назад

My thought exactly, the mixed chopped nuts was the Americanized version of topping with pine nuts.

Chef Rick Stein had baked Anelletti alla Palermitana in Sicily. Different shaped pasta, but was still sliced as per a cake.

I think it makes sense to add some tings in the given order if you mix it after any addition. If you just dump everything in, the order doesn't matter.

This one surprised me- I thought the baked spaghetti noodle would be really dry and gummy, but you seemed to enjoy it! I just found your channel the other day but I am delighted to have found it. (Even though it hurt my Canadian heart to hear the pasta called "paw-sta" ;) )

My family did something similar. Only ricotta cheese and rotel tomatoes in the 70's as well as bits and bobs from the fridge including a meat usually ham or chicken or my personal worst as a kid.....tuna.
