Catfish Soup
Catfish Soup: This one is an oldie but a goodie—taken from the playbook of the Conner House Hearthside Suppers, but the recipe goes back much farther! Dribble a bit of this before your guests, and they’ll be begging for more!
Skillet Cranberries
Skillet Cranberries: This spirited dish simply can’t miss from the fowl line—it will dominate any roasted poultry it comes against! An excellent pairing as well with goat cheese and crackers!
Apple Black Caps
Apple Black Caps: This is a fan favorite for the folks in Prairietown! Roasted apples smothered in a rich caramel sauce. When word gets around town, it seems there’s never enough to satisfy the hungry mob! This is a championship dish for any stomach!
Pork A La Normande
Pork A La Normande: It ain’t pretty, but wow, it will knock the socks off your taste buds! You simply can’t go wrong with the one-two punch of seared pork and apples! So delicious, you’ll throw your chair across the room!
Vinegar Pie
Vinegar Pie: This dish comes to us from Civil War Journey and is famous for its surprise attack on the senses. Don’t let the name fool you, this pie is powerhouse of deliciousness. Born during desperate times, this food packs the punch of lemon pie! So, while this dessert may fall short in name, it’s a giant when it comes to flavor! Trust us, if you try this dish once, you’ll never take it for “Grant”-ed.
A Very Economical Dinner
A Very Economical Dinner: Fundamentals! Fundamentals! Fundamentals! This hearty meal is guaranteed to bring fans to their feet!
Three Sisters Soup
Three Sisters Soup: Corn was the top seed in the Lenape diet along with beans and squash. The combination of the three was called the “The Three Sisters.” This dish is inspired by an ancient recipe! You gotta try this one!
Bread and Butter Pudding with Cherry Sauce
Bread and Butter Pudding with Cherry Sauce: This dessert makes a strong finale to a great meal! Butter and sugar are the key ingredients to its success, as well as the ruby-red goodness of preserved cherries*. This one’s a slam dunk!
