Inspired by a Waldorf Salad question in another thread, I remembered I have a 1955 compilation of historic signature dishes from famous hotels. A smattering: Chasen’s in L.A. Hilltop House in Omaha Empire House, Palmer Room—Chicago The Shamrock—Houston Antoine’s Restaurant—New Orleans If there’s any interest I could be persuaded to list each hotel and the recipe offered. ---

The Jordon Pond House—Seal Harbor Jordan Pond House Thin Molasses Cookies The Park Lane Restaurant—Buffalo Breast of Turkey Divan a la Park Lane Treadway Inn—Rochester Treadway Inn Lobster Pie Cromer’s—Flint Cromer’s Holiday Rum Eggnog Pie I would love these four - I collect molassas cookie recipes, and want to see if the latter 3 recipes are teh same as various people in the family make - I had an Aunt and Uncle in Michegan who lived near Flint, my Dad and Mom used to have to eat in Buffalo for business purposes, and in Rochester for business purposes and my Mom was a mistress at convincing chefs to give up secret recipes. Turkey divan was a traditional post turkey day meal =) ---

😉 **aruvqan** but yeah. Jordan Pond House Thin Molasses Cookies 2 cups dark molasses 2 tablespoons vinegar 2 tablespoons soda 2 teaspoons salt 1 cup sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla 2 tablespoons lemon extract 1 cup shortening 2 beaten eggs 6 1/2 cups floor (but I believe they mean flour. 😛 What, I’m not the only one who makes mistakes?) Bring molasses and vinegar to a boil. Remove from stove. Beat soda, salt, sugar, vanilla and lemon extract into the mixture. Add shortening, eggs and flour. Roll _very_ thin. Be sure to put together in order given. Bake in 375 degree oven. _doesn’t say how long_ Breast of Turkey Divan a la Park Lane 1 medium bouquet of broccoli, cooked 4 slices white turkey meat 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese Divan Sauce 1/2 cup Supreme sauce (??) 1/2 cup Hollandaise sauce 1 tablespoon whipped cream 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 1/2 ounce sherry wine 1/2 ounce brandy To make the Divan sauce, blend Supreme sauce, Hollandaise sauce, whipped cream and nutmeg lightly. Add the wine and brandy. Place the broccoli in individual casserole and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Arrange turkey over broccoli and pour over this the Divan sauce. Brown well under broiler. Treadway Inn Lobster Pie 2 tablespoons butter 1/2 pound (1 cup well packed meat) lobster 1/4 cup sherry 3 tablespoons butter 1 tablespoon flour 3/4 cup thin cream 2 egg yolks Melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add sherry. Boil 1 minute. Add lobster and let stand. Melt 3 tablespoons butter. Add flour. Stir until it bubbles 1 minute. Remove from heat. Slowly stir in cream and wine drained from lobster. Return to heat and cook, stirring all the time until the sauce is smooth and thick. Remove from heat. Beat egg yolks very well. Stir into yolks 4 tablespoons of sauce, 1 tablespoon at a time. Add to sauce, mixing well. Heat over hot water either by placing the saucepan over with mixture in it in a larger saucepan 1/3 full of hot water, or heat in top of double boiler. Water should not be allowed to boil. If it does, sauce may curdle or break. Sauce should be stirred constantly while heating. It takes about 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Add lobster. Turn into small deep pie plate. Sprinkle with topping. Bake in slow oven (300 degrees) for 10 minutes. Topping 1/4 cup cracker meal 1 tablespoon finely crushed potato chips 1/4 teaspoon paprika 1 1/2 teaspoon Parmesan cheese 2 tablespoons melted butter Mix first 4 ingredients, add melted butter and blend well. Sprinkle on lobster pie. Cromer’s Holiday Rum Eggnog Pie Baked pie shell or graham cracker crust 1 tablespoon gelatin 4 tablespoons cold water 2 tablespoons rum 4 egg yolks 1/3 cup sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup boiling water 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 4 egg whites 1/3 cup sugar Soak gelatin in cold water and rum. Beat egg yolks until fluffy with 1/3 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add boiling water and cook in double boiler until custard consistency. Pour hot custard over gelatin mixture and stir well to dissolve gelatin. Add nutmeg and chill over ice. Beat whites until stiff, add sugar. Add chilled custard to whites and fold in gently. Pour into shell or crust and chill in refrigerator until set. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with nutmeg. ---

I will note that the cookie bake time varies on the days humidity and the fractiousness of the oven’s thermometer and accuracy of settings. ---
