Steve Rogers and School Lunches

So I've been doing some research on food during the Great Depression and what I discovered is that school lunches became a big movement in New York in 1930. So it is very likely that Steve and Bucky would have eaten a school lunch during the depression.

The menu was created by the director of homemaking for the New York school system, Martha Westfall.

This is one of the four rotating menus she created.

For some struggling families, this was the only meal their kids would get a day, or it would help stretch the food at home. These school lunches were free.

In schools that had no kitchens "stoves were installed in basements or gymnasiums. Lunch counters were created from wooden planks supported by old desks, the surfaces covered in brightly covered oilcloth" (A Square Meal: A Culinary History of the Great Depression by Jane Ziegleman and Andrew Coe, p. 78-79).

Milk was believed to be very important in one's diet, so it was in every meal, and half a pint was served with each meal to drink.

The manual for the sophisticated Manhattan gent: where to take anyone to dinner. It may not look like anything special today, but in 1934, the U.S. (and even New York) was a strictly meat and potatoes kind of place, where fine dining meant turkey. Swedish food! Chinese! Japanese! Armenian! Only in New York.

Recipe Advent Calendar - Day 12

Happy Holidays! To celebrate the season, I am doing 12-days of seasonal recipes from the 14th to the 25th December. These are recipes published in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle newspaper during the period that Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes lived in Brooklyn in the early 20th century.

Christmas Housetop Cake (A Smart Table Decoration)

3 cups cake flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 cup butter 1 cup milk 1 3/4 cups sugar 3 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla Sift the flour, salt and baking powder together. Rub the butter to a creamy consistency with the back of a wooden spoon; stir the sugar slowly into the butter and continue stirring until a fluffy mass is formed; separate the eggs; stir in the egg yolks; stir in the flavoring, sift about 1/4 cup of the flour mixture over the mixture in the bowl and mix well; stir in about 1/3 of the milk; add the remainder of the flour and milk alternately, stirring between each addition to make a smooth mixture. Beat the egg white and fold in at the last. Bake in 3 square graduated cake pans or in a sheet pan, in a moderate oven (375 degrees) for 20-25 minutes. When done and cooled cut into 3 graduated squares and out together in layers with the smallest square on top. Frost with Snowdrift Icing and place a cardboard chimney with St. Nick emerging from the top, on the top square. Place red candles at each corner.

Snowdrift Icing 2 egg whites 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/3 cup cold water 1 tablespoon light corn syrup 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 cup grated cocoanut Place all the ingredients except the vanilla and cocoanut in the top part of a double boiler. Beat with a rotary egg beater until thoroughly mixed. Place over boiling water; beat steadily with the rotary beater until the icing will form peaks when the beater is lifted. The time will be about 7 minutes. Remove the top of the double boiler from the stove; add vanilla; beat until thick enough to spread. After spreading, sprinkle the grated cocoanut over the top.

The recipe appeared in the Saturday 12 December 1936 edition of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
