But burgers and beers affairs bear little resemblance to the buffet served during our rst Independence Day.

America declared itself a sovereign nation with the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. Celebrations followed almost immediately, but on the rst anniversary when the new nation was embroiled in ghting to establish the freedom it had so boldly declared the Continental Congress decided to put on a good face with a full-on party. That rst Fourth of July is believed to have taken place at City Tavern, the Philadelphia public house that hosted many a gathering of the founding fathers. Tavern chef Walter Staib says the menu likely would have been based on the recipes of British culinary authority Hannah Glasse, whose book Art of Cookery Made Plain and dictates not only every dish of the three-course dinner, but where it should be placed on the table. July menu suggests the signers of the Declaration would have supped on roast turkey and fricasseed rabbit, pigeon, craw sh and lobsters.

There would have been tongue and turnips and lamb testicles. And for dessert, apricot tarts and roasted apples, plums, jellies and custards. Because Philadelphia was a major port, the meal likely also would have included delicacies from abroad, Staib says. Limes from the West Indies were used for lime curd. Exotic fruit such as mangoes, pineapples and coconuts might have been available, as well as spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, mace and vanilla.

Plus, there was local seafood, such as salmon, sturgeon and oysters. of Staib says. was oysters in Philadelphia. They were fried in cornmeal, poached, they were everywhere. Some of the largest oyster banks were right here in the Delaware Outside the tavern and in various cities throughout the former colonies, artillery salutes, military bands and grand speeches entertained the masses, says James Heintze, librarian emeritus at American University in Washington, D.C.
