Possum recipeA friend in the book-publishing industry was dining at our house last week and rhapsodizing about old Joy of Cooking editions, particularly the illustrations from the '60s. Lo and behold, on my shelf was a 1962 edition my father had given me.

The book opens with an epigram from Goethe's Faust: "That which thy fathers have bequeathed to thee, earn it anew if thou wouldst possess it."

I was willing to try, but wow, culinary traditions have changed.

Alan went straight for the opossum recipe. If possible, the home chef is to trap this nocturnal animal and feed it on milk and cereal for 10 days before attempting to parboil, roast, and eat it, perhaps with some turnip greens. Okaaaaaay!"
