  Texas
  Pecan
  Recipes

  Revised




There aren’t many Texans who don’t have a special liking for pecans
grown in the state, usually enjoying them straight from the shell. But
now, more and more people are incorporating pecans in many different
types of recipes. In this booklet we have included recipes for salads,
main dishes, desserts, candies, and cookies.

The Texas pecan industry has grown significantly from the days when
the nuts were gathered by the family and hauled to town to sell during
the season. Today, modern storage facilities and packaging make them
available year-round. And if purchasers store pecans properly, they
will retain their fresh flavor and quality for very long periods.

We hope that you find new ways to use pecans in cooking and that you
insist on Texas pecans when you shop.

  Reagan V. Brown
  Commissioner of Agriculture




Buy Fresh Texas Pecans


The pecan is the state tree, and quite properly it is named. It was a
source of food for the Indians as well as the early colonists who found
the trees growing on creek and river banks. With new varieties and
commercial cultivation, the pecan orchards of Texas provide a steady
supply of pecans during the harvesting season from October through
December.

During these months, shoppers can find fresh pecans in retail outlets
and can also purchase from growers themselves in many areas. Pecans
are native to 152 counties in Texas and are grown commercially in the
central part of the state, down on the western border, and in the
Trans-Pecos.

Check with local farm organizations for names of producers of Texas
pecans in your area.




Storage

=When stored properly, they retain good taste and high quality.=


Whether you buy a small cellophane package of shelled pecans or a
five-pound bag of in-shell pecans, the best place to store them is in
the freezer. Pecans can spoil quickly under warm temperatures, but will
keep fresh one year at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Pecans do not have to be thawed before being added to a recipe. Even
if they are not part of a cooked dish, they will thaw adequately
before serving. Also, portions unused can be returned to the freezer
without any loss of quality. During the holiday season, keep the pecans
refrigerated--even in-shell--until they are ready to be served.

Transcriber’s Notes

Page 5: In the original recipe for meat loaf, “1/2 C. milk” was
repeated twice.

A few minor adjustments were made to improve consistency in formatting.

The loaf pan size for White Fruit Cake was 2 4 inch x ½ in the original
and has been left this way, although we are not aware of any pan of
that size.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
www.gutenberg.org

Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

The Foundation's business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
to date contact information can be found at the Foundation's website
and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
