INDIANA FRIED CHICKEN. EWING, OSCAR R. 1889-1980. Typed Manuscript, being the story of a particular recipe for Indiana Fried Chicken, and an entertaining description of its execution, 4 pp, noted in pencil November 6, 1940, folded; WITH: 9 original photographs, gelatin silver prints, each 5 x 7 inches, numbered to the verso, depicting this particular making of the Indiana Fried Chicken. "This chicken differs from other chickens in that its neck must be wrong off [the Indiana Twist], in the way that it is cut, and the way that it is cooked. Also, the chef must catch his chicken himself." A lively and highly entertaining story recounted by Mrs. Oscar Ewing about her husband's peculiar recipe for Indiana Fried Chicken. After years of complaining—"Why can't anyone in the effete East make Indiana Fried Chicken?"—Indiana native Oscar Ewing finally took it upon himself to instruct a refined group of Easterners on Goose Island in the St. Lawrence River. Ewing, a prominent lawyer, DNC operator, and prime architect of Truman's "Fair Deal," proceeds to not only catch a chicken and twist its neck off, but to clean, prepare and cook a chicken over the open fire. A stirring example of sourcing locally and knowing your food source.
