Down Home Cookin

[Gonzo the Face]

I would like to talk about something that is very close to my heart...... [within inches] and that is food.

I know there are some Americans on board and also those who have eaten, what maybe is considered Southern [uS] cooking.

A couple dishes that I have missed til recently

Snappy, Crispy-Skinned Pork knuckle with mashed potatos, gravy, and sauerkraut.

Wood Smoked pork knuckle, with boiled cabbage, and mixed vegetables covered in garlic butter sauce. [Thank you Granny Galien, wherever you are, I will always remember you]

Garlic Seasoned, Wood Smoked Pork Knuckle, Potato Salad, Mixed Salad and corn on the cob.

Anybody got any comments... food wise ?

Its rough that as you get older you start thinking about lunch much earlier in the morning.

Would this be "Soul Food"?

Would this be "Soul Food"?

Possibly.... but maybe more like "Honkey Cross-Over"

Really just southern cookin..... and I am sure enjoyed by Black, Whites, and many shades in between.

Racism doan start til after ya'll finish eatin.

der be a time and a place for everything...

Let me add, that this eating was done here in CM,..... good to remember the good old times

but back again in the South {US} you would have as a vegetable whats known as collard greens.

Actually known as water cress. Grows wild in the fields close to the ground and about around as a dinner plate. Snip on the one center root and put it in the tote sake....

better stop this as its starting to sound like a soul sonr R & B Poke Salad Annie

There is a restaurant called Sojos behind Pantip Plaza that has Southern foods and vegetables like collard greens and okra and hush puppies and fresh sourdough bisquits and so on.

Pretty good too.
