Lindy Boggs’s Oven-Fried Chicken
Lindy Boggs, who represented New Orleans in Congress for 18 years, was as astute in the kitchen as she was in politics, and deployed the knowledge that she had gained growing up on a Louisiana plantation in both. Mrs. Boggs, a Democrat who championed women’s economic concerns, did all the cooking for her yearly garden soirees, which were attended by more than 1,000 guests. Here is her easy recipe for oven-fried chicken, which should be for anyone afraid of stovetop frying. It is a weeknight recipe from a busy woman who cooked, and governed, with confidence and grace.

Italian or Cooked Meringue
This recipe, adapted from “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” by Julia Child, was featured in The New York Times in 1990 in an article on eggs. It is for a cooked meringue that can be used with chocolate mousse or lemon soufflé. When done correctly, the meringue should have a soft white sheen and hold its shape. A candy thermometer is a helpful tool in this regard.

Tipper Gore's Ginger Snaps
Contests pitting the baking ability of potential first ladies against each other began in 1992 when Hillary Rodham Clinton got everyone shaking and baking with her infamous cookie comment, discussing working as a lawyer while her husband was governor of Arkansas. ''I suppose I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas,'' she said. Her remark created a reactionary cookie contest, the brainchild of Family Circle magazine, which published her chocolate chip recipe and one from Barbara Bush. In 2000, this recipe went up against Laura Bush’s Cowboy Cookies.
