Welcome to Litsy!

Redemption per the kids for the green chile cornbread recipe from the tagged book - a “tamale” pie. My daughter reports the chiles are covered up. 😜

Freezing remainder of the cornbread for a future pie. #Mtcookbook

Sticky Honey Chicken & Green Chile Cornbread is what‘s for dinner. Smells fabulous in the house! #Mtcookbook

I walked to my library today - first time in over a year - and spotted this raggedy juvenile Canada goose along the way. I spent some time leafing through this cookbook and found a couple of interesting recipes. It's about half recipes and half gardening/ homesteading advice.

A one-man play about James Beard that exudes joy from every page. His passion for food and life is evident in this imagined conversation with the audience.

"Because food should taste good and it should be fun."

"Good entertaining is just being yourself, enjoying your role as host."

These simple beans were delicious last night, made even tastier by adding gochujang because all things are better with some spicy heat! 😋

I like this book and would like to add it to my library, but it contains a lot of homesteading advice I won‘t use. If I can find it used at a reasonable price I‘ll pick it up because many of the dishes look terrific.

I‘m not one who reads recipes, but each recipe had a story to go with it, so I did read that. I bake more than cook, and I‘m not an adventurous eater. That was one of the nice things about this book – though there were some odd things, much of it was just “American” food (bbqs, pies, ice cream, steak, etc).

Its vocabulary snuck into the language of the South; its flavors pushed the preferences of Britain and Germany to the rear. Its manners determined the flow, and its communalizing nature brought the West and Central African influence together ... “ ⬇️ #history #cooking #AmericanFood
