Authentic Fruit and Vegetable Recipes of the Frontier
Many pioneers grew their own fruits and vegetables, such as onions, potatoes, carrots, turnips, and squashes. These were stored (often by braiding them together and hanging them)for winter and used in soups, stews, and vegetable dishes such as these below. Fruits consisted mostly of apples, pears, berries and other fruits that could be dried and used throughout the winter. Citrus was not available to the settlers of the frontier.
