Built as a family home and then living history museum in 1961, the adobe Fort was built to emulate the frontier trading posts of the 19th century. Taking its cues from the architecture and the foods of the Southwest, the building and the menu hearken back to an earlier time while providing diners with a modern and elegant dining experience. This cookbook is a celebration of the Fort and many favorite recipes developed throughout its 56-year history including its most recent menus. The Fort was an early proponent of locavore food and has featured regional game recipes throughout its history, bringing additional appeal to this celebratory cookbook and memento. Selected recipes: Pres. Thomas Jefferson's Macaroni & Cheese with green chile Mexican Chocolate Ice Cream Mud Pie Chocolate Negrita Herb Butter Bison Tenderloin with Onions & Mushrooms Marinated Rack of Lamb with eastern spices over couscous with harissa condiment Wild Caught Alaskan Sockeye with white wine lemon dill sauce
