The Caesar salad was invented in Tijuana, Mexico, in Caesar Cardini's restaurant. I guess tuna on crackers is supposed to represent the Great Depression. A lot of people couldn't afford anything fancier than that. In the U.S. you can buy cocktail sauce in a bottle. There are a lot of brands, including Heinz and Old Bay. They usually have a lot of tomato and some horseradish, and no mayonnaise, and look a lot like ketchup. "When was chocolate cake popular?" - When wasn't it?

And the original recipe had no meat, no anchovy, and wasn't chopped up. It was an oil, egg, and garlic dressing over whole leaves from the heart of the romaine, sprinkled with shredded parmesan and croutons. But that was too messy to eat so they started coarsely chopping it.

@terenzo50 Год назад

Caesar Salad wasn't invented to impress anyone -- they were out of lots of their usual ingreients due to a large rush of American patrons over the 4th of July holiday. Caesar and/or his brother and/or everyone else who worked at his restaurant in Tijuana madly tried to put together whatever they had on hand to make up for the lack. The only anchovies used at that time were the ones already in the Worcestershire Sauce. And it was lime juice rather than today's lemon. And it was made at tableside as a bit of showmanship. Over the decades, the recipe changed a bit. The origination was much like the Cobb Salad -- madly thrown together at the last minute with whatever was leftover in the kitchen.

@kathyastrom1315 Год назад

I remember a steakhouse had a spinning salad bowl that made the salad a show. The big stainless steel bowl was nestled into a bed of ice, the various ingredients for your salad were put inside, then the waiter would send the bowl spinning while he (and it was always a he) would toss the salad with huge tongs. You got a perfectly tossed and chilled salad at the end.

Shrimp cocktail - Much larger shrimp, definitely hung around the lip of the glass + true American cocktail sauce which is a ketchup-based sauce (so a much brighter red color than what you had) with horseradish mixed in, & possibly other spices or flavorings, depending on preferences.

Cocktail sauce in the restaurants I worked as a chef in when I was younger is no sugar added ketchup, horseradish, lemon juice, worcestershire, hot sauce, and if they want extra hot cocktail sauce you add in a little more horseradish and a splash of white vinegar (to make the heat stick). Presentation is greens in the bottom of the martini glass, ramekin of cocktail sauce propped up on the greens, shrimp dangling of the rim of the glass. And we always cooked the shrimp in pickling spices.

There was a restaurant chain called Perkins where on your birthday you got a free chocolate cake and the staff sang a song. The cakes were almost more frosting than cake, the best. Chocolate cake has always been popular. Betty Crocket and Dunkin Hines make boxed mixes you add eggs, oil, and milk. With chocolate fudge icing and a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream.

The Shrimp cocktail was hysterical - but honestly the tuna and crackers was in a way.... more off.. The Tuna would be in oil, drained off. the cracker would have margarine. and there would be black and white ground pepper to the point of it looking like ash Wednesday. Thats on a fishing boat. Served to guests it would be topped with cheddar and baked. Or for that big classy soiree, the Tuna would be cut with a bechamel or condensed mushroom soup and baked in a pan of precooked noodles, served with cottage cheese biscuits(not cookies) and probably slathered with melted cheddar on top.

Southern staple in the 1930-1940’s was probably pinto beans (soup beans). With some type of pork product. Ham scraps, ham hocks, or sausage. With cornbread and potatoes. Because most folk grew their veggies and had chickens and pigs. Very filling, but cheap to eat. Large Dutch oven of beans and ham could easily feed a family of six. With potatoes and cornbread it stretches to two days.

@HealthyDisrespectforAuthority Год назад

Interesting choices.. not at all what I was thinking would happen. I somehow expected a mostly bread mystery meatloaf from the depression.. maybe pot roast from the late 50s.. jello molds with stuff in them.. the savory kind, like an aspic. For dessert, a baked Alaska.. can't get a whole lot more American than a food named after a state

Never have I seen it referred to as a PRAWN cocktail but as a SHRIMP. First really exposed to them in Las Vegas at every cocktail lounge in the 60's still unto today.
