Cooking During the Civil War: Food During the War | Preparation Food Substitutions | Food Storage | Recipes Recipes Indian Bread 1 quart buttermilk Mix ingredients together and bake over a wood fire. "Apple-less" Apple Pie 1 bowl crackers Take a small bowl of crackers and soak the crackers in water until no hard parts remain. Add one teaspoon of tartaric acid, sweeten to taste, add some butter and a little nutmeg. Bake. Slapjacks Take flour, a little sugar and water, mix with or without a little yeast, the latter better if at hand. Mix into a paste and fry as you would fritters in clean fat. A Cheap and Quick Pudding 4 eggs Beat the eggs, add the milk and a little salt, and stir in the four spoonfuls of flour. Add a little nutmeg and sugar to taste. Beat well and pour into buttered teacups, filling them rather more than half full. They will bake in a stove or Dutch oven in fifteen minutes. Indian Sagamite Three parts of Indian meal and one of brown sugar, mixed and browned over the fire, will make the food known as "Sagamite." Used in small quantities, it not only appeases hunger but allays thirst, and is therefore useful to soldiers on a scout.
