Eustis Celestine. Cooking in Old Creole Days La Cuisine Créole à l'usage des petits ménages. New York: R. H. Russell 1903. First edition. 8vo. Illustrated with eight full-page plates by Harper Pennington each with a printed tissue guard featuring the musical score and lyrics of a Creole song. Original publisher's pictorial cloth. The book presents recipes alongside cultural commentary celebrating the distinctive culinary traditions of Creole New Orleans.

Weir Mitchell praises the culinary expertise of African American cooks in Southern households while also reflecting the racial paternalism characteristic of early twentieth century commentary on Black labor and domestic service.

Each plate is protected by a printed tissue guard bearing the musical score and lyrics of a Creole song pairing culinary instruction with elements of regional musical culture and reinforcing the book's portrayal of Creole domestic life. At the time of its publication Creole cuisine had become a defining element of New Orleans cultural identity and an object of growing national interest among American readers seeking regional culinary traditions.

Clean interior with crisp illustrations and intact tissues; binding tight with minimal signs of use. Overall near fine condition. This book preserves evidence of the racial and social hierarchies that structured domestic labor in the American South where the knowledge and artistry of Black cooks shaped the cuisine even as their contributions were often filtered through the voices of white authors and publishers. unknown
