Great food in Tuolumne County goes back a century and a half to the kettles and firepits of the miners from around the world seeking their fortune in the gold mines. The types of foods and preparation were the result of the mix and variety of the people who shared in this feast. Each of them brought their thoughts, customs, dress and food.
