Sometimes foods that have a familiar name might not be what we expect. In my book From the Family Kitchen I wrote about American Chop Suey and how most regions in the United States have a version of this dish but call it by different names.
I found another example today in my copy of Presbyterian Cook Book. The Women's Society of the First Presbyterian Church. Winfield, Kansas. ca. 1932.
Their recipe, Pigs in a Blanket is a little different than what I would usually associate with that name. No pigs (hot dogs) and no biscuit blanket here. But hey, everything is better with bacon.
