Download or read book The Delta Queen Cookbook written by Cynthia LeJeune Nobles and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2012-09-17 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's last authentic overnight wooden steamboat, the Delta Queen cruised America's inland waters from 1927 through 2008, offering passengers breathtaking views, luxury accommodations, rousing entertainment, and southern-style feasts. For over eighty-two years, chefs in the small galley served memorable meals—from fried chicken and crawfish en croûte to strawberry shortcake and beignets. The Delta Queen Cookbook brings the Delta Queen's story to life with an engaging historical narrative and over 125 recipes prepared by the steamboat's former chefs during their tenures in the cookhouse. Nobles traces the story of the "Grand Old Lady" as she faced remarkable social, economic, and political challenges. The Delta Queen became a haven for illegal drinking during Prohibition, and she survived the effects of the Great Depression, World War II, and increasingly modern and sophisticated competition. Despite the obstacles, this flapper-era boat always found a seamless way to coddle passengers with cozy staterooms and delectable fare. Each chapter ends with authentic Delta Queen recipes—including Citrus and Watercress Salad with Chili Dressing, Roast Duck and Wild Rice Soup, Speckled Trout Pecan, Eggs Crawkitty, Steamboat Pudding, and more—proportioned and tested for home kitchens. The Delta Queen Cookbook includes interviews with former crew, chefs, and passengers; over ninety historical and full-color photographs; and vintage and modern menus. History buffs, steamboat lovers, and home cooks alike will revel in the memories and tastes that make the Delta Queen one of America's best-loved national treasures.

Discover romance across America with Janet Dailey’s classic series featuring a love story set in each of the fifty states. One of America’s most beloved romance writers, with more than 300 million books sold, Dailey continues her Americana series with a visit to New Orleans, Louisiana, and a romantic journey down the mighty Mississippi River. Selena Merrick, an Iowa minister’s daughter, is letting loose on her New Orleans vacation—perhaps too loose. When she jokingly quotes a price for her services to a group of drunken businessmen who mistake her for a “lady of the evening,” Chance Barkley, a handsome nearby stranger, takes her very seriously. Cutting their encounter short after only a few furtive kisses, the stunning redhead can’t help wondering what she missed by abandoning the manly, muscular, and ever-so-persistent Southerner. But after boarding the famed Delta Queen riverboat, she gets another chance at Chance—who happens to be a fellow passenger.
