BLACK HISTORY THROUGH COOKING
1 had heard about “The
Historical Cookbook for the
American Negro.” I knew
it was out of print and that
no one who owned a copy
wanted to part with it. A
precious document of reci
pes honoring famous Blacks
of the past.
In a bookstore in Harlem
1 met a woman who knew
Dorothy Height, National
President of The National
Council of Negro Women,
publishers of the book. She
suggested I get in touch
with her. Even the Council
didn’t want to let their copy
out of the office. Then by
chance I met a fellow work
er at Best Foods who knew
the book. Her sister Helen
Norvelle was a regional
Director of NCNW in 1958
when the book was publish
ed and she offered to let me
borrow her book. There were
so many recipes I wanted to
try, and so much to read
about Black history; pictures
and documents to study-a
delight in every way. Here
is just one recipe from the
book, Banana Nut Bread.
Now that I know there’s
a copy of “The Historical
Cookbook for the American
Negro” in the Schomburg
Collection at 103 West 135th
Street in New York City,
I may refer to it again.
BANANA NUT BREAD
1 cup dark corn syrup
‘/a cup shortening
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups sifted flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed, ripe bananas
1 cup chopped nuts
Grease 1 (9x5x2 3/4-inch)
loaf pan. Stir together corn
syrup and shortening. Add
eggs. Beat until light and
fluffy. Sift together flour,
baking powder and salt. Add
to creamed mixture alter
nately with bananas. Mix
well. Stir in nuts. Turn bat
ter into greased loaf pan.
Bake in 375°F. oven 55
minutes or until cake tester
comes out clean and loaf is
a golden brown. Remove
from pan. Cool on rack.
Makes 1 loaf.
Note: Muriel Jansen is a
home economist with Best
Foods, a Division of CPC
International Inc. She test
ed the recipe for Banana
Nut Bread with Karo corn
syrup, using margarine for
the shortening.
