Back to recipes, she had a lot of land and raised all kinds of food. Never wasted a morsel. Had recipes for everything including a bunch of wild stuff. I must have sunk to the bottom of the gene pool in the cooking department. I like to cook sometimes, but not much. smile

smilinize Member Registered: 11/08/03 Posts: 3512 Loc: outer space	I think you guys are eating hominy GRITS. Big difference between hominy grits and hominy. Hominy is these big kernels of corn with the hard outside part kind of soaked off or softened or something with lye I think. It's canned in a can. Hominy Grits is when they've been kind of mashed up. People eat them in Tennessee and the south. What we ate was the whole kernel of corn. smile

smilinize Member Registered: 11/08/03 Posts: 3512 Loc: outer space	Okay JJ, I have eaten grits. Tried them when I traveled through your part of the country. They tasted a lot like the paste I ate in first grade (My cousin threatened to tie my dog's tail in a knot if I didn't eat some-yuk). The butter and sugar they put on the grits to give them some flavor were pretty good though. If not hominy what are grits made of? I've heard the term hominy grits and I thought that was what I was eating. Maybe it was a joke. I'm no fan of hominy for sure. Unless it is deep fried of course. Anything deep fried is fine by me. smile

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	Actually, I think you are right. I think GRITS are Hominy. Oh Lord...now I have to do some research today on the origin of GRITS... And you are sooo right on the money with the grease thing. Some days you just gotta have one of those good old juicy/greasy hamburgers from the local heart attack in the waiting grill...eh? JJ

TVC15 Member Registered: 09/03/04 Posts: 2538 Loc: North Carolina	Chatty, Do you do homemade pasta? What I'm looking for is the recipe for Manicotti shells. I had one, but lost it. Also, do you make your own cheesecake? (don't worry about the calories, some things should be left as God intended them to be, fattening!) The one thing I've noticed about my new homestate is there are no bakeries (except in the food stores) And I miss my NY cheesecake. And while you're at it, how about a tasty bundt cake! I got a new pan that looks like a wreath but need a good recipe to make in it! Sorry for being greedy in the recipe dept., but you are so good at it!
