Rice Krispies treats as amazing new novelty

The Cookbook and Home Economics Collection includes books from the Young Research Library Department of Special Collections at UCLA, The Bancroft Library at The University of California, Berkeley, and the Prelinger Library. These fascinating books take us back to an America in the early decades of the 20th century covering topics on cookery, textiles, family and home, budgeting, domestic sciences, and many other delightful topics.

This is largely to bring attention to the Tasting History YT channel since I think you fine folks would like it. I am not associated with the channel in any way.

Max will usually intro with a little base info, followed by the recepie, then it's "Time for History" related to the dish in the video. He finishes each video with a tasting and review of the dish. If you're just interested in the food, you can probably skip the middle 40-50% of the video.

B. Dylan Hollis... Everyone's favorite (or least favorite) baker/content creator/cookbook author. Here we see him baking a bread with avocado. Sounds weird, turns out decent. Yet to try it.

Found these recipe cards on imgur from Trader Vic's, circa 2013 or so. Lots of sauces, sides and various other small items.

The source for the famous $250 Neiman Marcus cookie recipe that's been floating around on the internet for ages.

Can't remember where I found this online, but it is purported to be Ernest Hemingway's own hamburger recipe.

A quick search turned up this article, which actually recreated the burger (with substitutions for unavailable ingredients): https://www.artofmanliness.com/living/food-drink/ernest-hemingways-favorite-hamburger/

My spouse worked at K-mart waaay back in the day, and she was waxing nostalgic about these. Lo and behold, someone who worked the counter gave a quick recipe on Food.com.

This recipe comes courtesy of a now-extinct food blog, secret-sauce.net. They managed to find two different versions of Dave Thomas's original chili recipe (printed in a local newspaper and a charity cookbook) and work out the restaurant version with a little help from the ingredients statement. See below for scans of those two articles.

Ingredients:

• 2 pounds fresh ground beef (80/20 is a good mixture) -1 quart (4 cups) of tomato juice
• One 29 ounce can of tomato puree
• One 15 ounce can of dark red kidney beans, drained
• One 15 ounce can of small red beans, pinto beans, or pink beans, drained (I used small red beans)
• One medium onion, chopped (about 1½ cups)
• ½ cup celery, diced (about one large stalk)
• ¼ cup green bell pepper diced (one medium sized pepper, with seeds/ribs/stem removed)
• ¼ cup (4 tablespoons) chili powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1½ teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon oregano
• ½ teaspoon sugar
• ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Preparation:

Preheat a large pan to medium heat with a light layer of oil

Chop onion, celery, and green pepper. Each piece should be about the size of one your small beans.

Drain cans of beans in a colander and rinse.

Spread ground beef thinly across the whole pan, making a single giant hamburger. Press firmly and season with salt.

When the meat sizzles, quickly flip and press down into pan. When red juices appear at the top of the meat, flip again and press into the pan once more. Again, when you see red juiced flip a final time to complete cooking. Turn off heat, and drain the giant burger by lifting it from the pan moving to a large pot.

Break up the meat in the pot with a spatula into bean-sized pieces.

Add the beans, chopped vegetables, and all remaining ingredients to the pot with the beef.

Bring the pot a simmer and cover. Stir every 15 minutes for 1½ hours.

To serve, stir the pot in a figure-eight shape and scoop out a large portion.
