Hash Quotes

“HASH, x. There is no definition for this word -- nobody knows what hash is.”
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)
'The Devil's Dictionary' (1911)
 

“There is nothing worse for the health, or for the palate, than a poor hash, while a good hash is not only a favorite dish in most families, but an essential article of economy and convenience.”

Catharine E. Beecher
'Miss Beecher’s Domestic Receipt-Book' (1846)
 

“As to those things called hashes, commonly manufactured by unwatched, untaught cooks, out of the remains of yesterday's repast, let us not dwell too closely on their memory, - compounds of meat, gristle, skin, fat, and burnt fibre, with a handful of pepper and salt flung at them, dredged with lumpy flour, watered from the spout of the tea-kettle, and left to simmer at the cook's convenience while she is otherwise occupied.”
Christopher Crowfield (Harriet Beecher Stowe)
'House and Home Papers' (1865)
