Travel with us back in time to the 1850s and discover the tools, recipes and ingredients used in Illinois in the late-1850s, right around the time Lincoln was debating Douglas.

The 1850s housewife had many of the same challenges modern homemakers have: what to feed the family that is healthy, affordable and available. Unlike today, however, she also needed to contend with issues such as milk curdling before she got the butter made; making a tough old chicken tender enough to serve; and curing her family’s illnesses with only medicines she made herself. Ellie has researched the cooking techniques, period-appropriate ingredients, and recipes of the 1850s homemaker.
