goodbye/fun facts....baked alaska...In the United States in 1867, an earnest debate erupted over the potential purchase of Alaska from Russia. Secretary of State William Seward agreed to a purchase price of $7 million, and Alaska became a United States territory in 1868. Enter Charles Ranhofer, the chef at Delmonico's Restaurant in New York City....who also created lobster newburg. He was notorious for naming new and renaming old dishes after famous people and events. Baked Alaska is made with hard ice cream on a base of sponge cake and covered in a shell of toasted meringue.Capitalizing on the heated controversy surrounding the purchase in the frozen north, Baked Alaska fit the bill. It was cold, nearly frozen, and quickly toasted in a hot oven before serving.
