My mother didn’t make German Potato Salad, but my grandmother did. Unlike most versions, hers went into the oven. I rather prefer the roasted version…the potatoes are a better texture and they brown up nicely. Continue reading

This is a slightly fruity version of cornbread dressing, but with savory flavors dancing around in the back. Cornbread and apple compliment each other, then throw in the bacon and cheese that temper the sweetness and add a lovely savory aspect. Continue reading

Did you have a nice Thanksgiving? We were blessed with a visit from our good Canadian friends, The Austrian Sweet Tooth and The Organizer, Now Retired (she’s my political conscience!). They were visiting to “experience” the “Southern” Thanksgiving, as they have never been with us for Thanksgiving, American-style, and a “Southern” Thanksgiving, as well. We didn’t do the traditional turkey, but feasted on Pork Tenderloin with Mushrooms, Herbs and Apples, Bread Stuffing with Herbs, Scalloped Corn and sauerkraut. Sauerkraut is just so delicious with pork, so why not? And this…this is some gooood sauerkraut! Continue reading

So, this is different, but it is a wonderful version of chicken salad. It’s creamy, has a nice pure flavor, a little crunch at the end. It’s just flat-out delicious. Continue reading
