•Most Southerners have fond memories of pimento cheese. Affectionately referred to as “Carolina caviar” or “Southern pate,” it has been a Southern staple for well over 50 years. But pimento cheese is a fickle mistress. Despite the heritage it has built up for itself in the lower states it’s quite surprising to learn that this recipe hails from New York.
It’s easy to explain what pimento cheese is: Shredded or grated cheddar cheese mixed with mayonnaise and diced pimentos. What’s harder to answer is how it started and why it’s considered Southern. While some sources claim it started with subsidized cheese as a cheap form of protein during the Depression, the recipe is actually much older. Versions show up in Southern cookbooks in the late 19th and early 20th century.
It may have become popular in the South because it didn’t spoil easily at room temperature, making it easy to pack in lunchboxes, particularly for textile workers. But it was also fashionable as a sandwich in tea rooms.

For those of you who don't understand what a "Smidgen" is in your Cookbook recipe, Here's Jed Clampett to set you straight on Grannys Cooking measurements for Cookin Salted Possum Innards
Jed: “A smidgen is just a teeeenie, little bit…
3 smidgens make one pinch
4 pinches equals one little bit
4 little bits equal one midlin’ amount
3 midlin’ amounts equal one right smart
And it takes 5 right smarts to make a whole heap.”
PS: They Taste Better On The 2nd Day !

"Words cannot replace the value of eating when you’re aiming to understand a particular food, but they can illuminate where there is darkness, and in gumbo there is much darkness."

An Ode to Cornbread:
Cornbread’s a staple in southern cuisine,
A comfort food present when suppers convene.
Cornbread is hallowed down south –sacred stuff.
Those boxed jiffy mixes just aren’t up to snuff.
It’s whipped up from scratch, or it ain’t the real deal—
Buttermilk, eggs and a heapin’ of meal.
Please don’t use sugar! No, sir. That would kill it.
The batter is poured in a hot, cast iron skillet.
When it’s all golden-brown, nice and crisp on the edges,
It’s pulled from the oven and cut into wedges.
Cornbread can also be muffins or sticks.
It complements many good things that we fix.
Cornbread’s a must with a big mess of greens,
It makes a good “pusher” for field peas or beans,
And I’m tellin’ you, you can use it to sop
The pot likker still on your plate---every drop!
Leftover cornbread gets eaten real soon---
Crumbled in milk, in a glass, with a spoon!
When Thanksgiving comes, cornbread’s more of a blessing
Cause down here, we use it to make yummy dressing!
There are all sorts of foods in the world one can eat,
But I’m cornbread-fed and my life’s pretty sweet

How to Acquire Taste
Have you ever wondered what it takes to acquire a taste? People are always eating weird stuff and telling you how good it is and then you work up the nerve and taste it and it tastes exactly how you thought it would taste: nasty. I tried Goat Head Soup once and it was as bad as it sounds but better than it smelled. My friends-who had grown up eating it- were just wearing it out, laughing at me.…

This is my safe space, I post about JESUS, my love for cooking, as well as my love for teaching.
I’m a southern girl at heart born in Jersey but my heart will forever be in the south.
Anyways that’s it I think💗

Hooray for the return of date nights! Also the return to social media lol. I kind of took a step back from several areas of my life in order to invest more time and energy into my ytt program, but now that it’s over we can go back to treating ourselves occasionally 😇
