LLCC Community Education is partnering with the Lincoln Home National Historic Site and Springfield Convention and Visitors Bureau to present “History Cooks,” a series of free cooking and baking demonstrations of dishes from President Lincoln’s time.
Tomorrow, June 2, noon at the Lincoln Home National Historic Site, LLCC Chef Instructor Lakesha Jackson will present “Mrs. Lincoln’s Southern Cooking,” in which some of Mrs. Lincoln’s Southern favorites will be demonstrated. Attendees will receive a souvenir recipe card so they can re-create the dishes at home. Note: This demonstration will also be held at 10 a.m. that day in the rotunda of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library.
