Racist Egg Nog

First off, bless archive.org. Yet again they've brought something wonderful *to my attention. First Reptiles and now southern cooking. I'm talking specifically about THE SOUTHERN COOK BOOK ᴼᶠ ᶠᴵᴺᴱ ᴼᴸᴰ ᴿᴱᶜᴵᴾᴱˢ.

Before I get to the recipe, I want to highlight that this book has both of the kinds of racism, the N-word kind and the "plant these lies in someone and they'll enslave themselves". Right underneath a recipe for Griddle Cakes is a song about ...you shall be free, When de good Lord sets you free. Yeah, not good.

The recipe



This was definitely the rawest egg I've ever drank. And it was delicious. I wasn't planning on spooning an entire 2 eggs into my mouth out of a coffee mug, but you know, life finds a way.

Later it occurred to me that eating raw eggs might not be safe, so I went to the one true stop for egg-info: AUSTRALIAN EGGS. They say "While it’s generally safe to consume raw eggs, there are very few reasons to do so", so I guess I'm good... I probably should have washed the shell at least though.


Footnotes

* To be clear, I'm talking about the egg nog sauce and not the racism

What the fuck kind of qualifier did I just have to add. Fuck me.
