A great export from Missouri!

"The Joy of Cooking" was written by Irma Rombauer, a woman who wasn’t even a trained chef. Faced with hardship after her husband's death in 1930, she self-published the first edition in 1931. Crazy, right? With only $3,000, she printed 3,000 copies. Its conversational style and practical recipes made the book a surprise hit. Rombauer's iconic cookbook has now sold over 20 million copies and still sits in kitchens across America. 📚🍲 Her story shows how innovation can change lives. Irma’s love for home cooking turned into an essential guide for many. Talk about inspiration. 👏

Does anyone have a subscription to the Washington Post?
I am seeking a recipe published before 1900, and likely before 1890 called: Apple Float.

According to a manuscript cookbook:

Beat the whites of three eggs to a stiff froth; add three tablespoons of powdered sugar and beat again.

Then stir gradually one good sized tart apple grated and a teaspoon of rind of lemon; heap the spoonful over a dish of cream and serve cold.

Thanks!
