Reddit mentions of Buckeye Cookery & Practical Housekeeping: Tried and Approved, compiled from Original Recipes and dedicated to The Plucky H

I grew up along the Gulf Coast so I have a deep love for Cajun and Creole cookbooks. I also love the old Justin Wilson PBS episodes you can find on Youtube. I love buying used cookbooks, it's amazing the deals you can get.


Do you have any recommendations for books I should add to my collection? Here are the Cajun/Creole books I already have.

Southern Creole Style Cook for Love and Life - Diabetic/Hypoglycemic oriented cookbook. My mom found it at someone's home who had a bunch of stuff on their lawn to give away for free. It's a pretty good book spiral bound like a Junior League book.

Cajun Low-Carb by Jude Theriot

Paul Prudhomme Louisiana Kitchen

Prudhomme Family Cookbook

Patout's Cajun Home Cooking

Justin Wilson #2 Cookbook - Cookin Cajun

Cajun Creole Cooking - Terry Thompson

I don't have bound editions of these but they are ones I enjoy that are free to read online because they're so old.

The Picayune Creole Cookbook 1901

Cooking in old Créole days. La cuisine créole à l'usage des petits ménages

I also love historical cooking books: Food on the Frontier: Minnesota Cooking from 1850 to 1900 with Selected Recipes (Publications of the Minnesota Historical Society) is so interesting as is Buckeye Cookery & Practical Housekeeping: Tried and Approved, Compiled from Original Recipes and The Settlement Cook Book 1903
