Ruth’s Recipes
The recipes Ruth used to create her scones, bannocks, brandied fruit and Indian corn mush are inspired by dishes mentioned an An Antebellum Household Journal Including the South Carolina Receipts and Remedies of Emily Warton Sinkler, by Anne Sinkler Whaley LeClercq. I purchased it in Charleston when touring a plantation home.
If you’d like to try the recipes, you can find some versions of them here:

They are fun to try (however, I have also included a more modern version).
Enjoy!
