Recipes From Miss Daisy's - 25th Anniversary Edition

For twenty-five years Recipes from Miss Daisys has been the cookbook of choice for the thousands of people who have enjoyed the warm hospitality and delicious food that were the hallmarks of Miss Daisys Tearoom in Franklin and in the Green Hills area of Nashville Tennessee. Now in response to popular demand a new edition of the wonderful little yellow cookbook has been lovingly prepared for those who have nearly worn out their well-thumbed copies as well as generations of Middle Tennesseans who will continue to enjoy it for years to come. The story of Miss Daisys Tearoom is as interesting as the food served there. When Carters Court in Franklin was still on the drawing board the developers recognized the need for a place where ladies could come for lunch. When a turn-of-the-century house was moved there people exclaimed Thats got to be a tearoom and so it was. The restaurant moved to Green Hills in 1982 expanding to a full-service restaurant and returning to Franklin in 1986 as Daisys of Carters Court. The food in Recipes from Miss Daisys is the same food that was served at the restaurants plus some more wonderful dishes that no proper Southerner could resist. Turkey Divan Buttermilk Pie Congealed Cucumber Salad Sally Lunn Muffins Creamed Chicken Festive Cranberry Salad Marinated Carrots Fudge Pie Garden Tomato Stuffed with Tearoom Tuna Salad Miss Daisys Beef Casserole (a favorite!) and Tomato Aspic are among the Tearoom favorites that have become classic fare for Middle Tennesseans and across the South. Updated to include serving amounts and to clarify some of the original instructions this 25th anniversary edition of Recipes from Miss Daisys willearn a well-deserved place in kitchens and on cookbook shelves everywhere.
