Whats is your all time favorite food your mom/grandmama cooked

Your favorite food you wished you could have one more time if they were still with us?

My mom the biggest Clemson fan ever made the absolutely best biscuits I’ve ever had.

She taught me how several times but I could never achieve the real deal and she never measured anything.

Those biscuits with butter & Molasses or butter & your favorite jam also, by themselves was amazing too!

I have a great recipe for cake cornbread.
Two cups cornmeal
1/4 cup canola oil
One large egg
1.5 cups buttermilk
One TBSP sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
Large cast iron skillet coated with crisco
Preheat oven and skillet to 450
Add all ingredients after mixing and bake 18 minutes. Toast the top to desired brownness.

That’s an old Appalachian mountain recipe. Super easy and delicious! Great as cornbread and buttermilk too!

Lasagna - took a day to make the tomato sauce from scratch. The next day she would assemble and layer the lasagna that included mini meatballs that simmered in the tomato sauce for many hours, sliced hard boiled eggs, pepperoni slices, mozzarella cheese and much more. Was an unbelievable treat every Christmas eve. You could smell the outstanding sauce throughout the house while she was cooking. The recipe came across the Atlantic from our family in Italy.

Nobody could pick a Pecos cantaloupe at the perfect time, slice and serve it up chilled and salted like Mimi did.

And nobody -- I mean nobody -- could make red-eye gravy or cornbread like Nannie.

(I was blessed to have had three grandmas.)

A young newlywed went to the grocery store. After walking up and down the aisles for several minutes, she asked to speak to the manager. She said, "I can't find what I'm looking for. Do you have any scratch?" The manager looked puzzled and thought he had misunderstood. "What are you looking for?" She replied "Scratch." He said, "I'm not sure what that is."

She said, "My husband says my biscuits aren't as good as his mom made. I told him I bought the very best biscuits I could find in the store." He said, "My mom didn't buy canned biscuits. She made them from scratch. So, I need to buy some scratch."

Mom’s chicken and dumplings. And of course her biscuits with it.

Close second is her steak and milk gravy, again with her biscuits. This is only second because several of us can come close to duplicating the steak and milk gravy. No one in the family can duplicate the biscuits or chicken and dumplings. My wife and sister make dumplings and they are good, but they are not the same as Mom’s.

Now I have the sads. Miss Mom’s cooking terribly.

Pot Roast - my grandma and mom both made it in an ancient cast iron pot. Tons of onions cooked down into a rich dark gravy. Cooked to a point where it was browned perfecty on the outside and would just hold together when sliced, but not to where it would crumble. I miss them both and the pot roast.

We cooked it together on a Monday morning 6 years ago so she could teach me how she made it (I had her recipe but good cooks always have special little quirks they do).

My Mom has my Grandmother's recipe for Spiced Icebox Cookies ... they typically make their appearance at Christmas!

Otherwise, my Grandmother gave me my love for green beans. And, my Mom makes a great chicken pot pie and the best shrimp and grits, both from scratch.

Granny's (my Dad's side) made the best cornbread ever. I still use the recipe and can get it close but not exactly what I remember. Maybe it was the wood stove she used.

Grandmama (my Mom's side) made the best cornbread dressing at Thanksgiving. I can't come close to duplicating it.

Mama made the best fried chicken. Hot or cold it tasted good.

Biscuits and gravy are two things you have to cook often to keep the flavor and consistency. Unless you’ve done it a thousand times like so many mothers did. My mother made the best gravies,from fried chicken,fried cubed steak,roast beef,had a great one from pork tenderloin. Marinaded in a good seasons salad dressing mix.

Peach cobbler made right is absolutely amazing with some homemade ice cream or homemade whipped cream.😀

Mother's scratch biscuits, cornbread dressing, and real cooked banana pudding ( I did learn her recipe, very simple but have to be patient to cook the custard/pudding. Also made a special dish with chicken livers and gizzards, brown rice, peas, carrots and tomatoes cooked down. Kind of like a paella

Maternal Maw Maw - best blackberry cobbler ever. Made from fresh picked wild blackberries. Nobody could figure out how she got the doughy middle part of the cobbler to absorb the blackberry juice.

Paternal Granny - any cake, all scratch made no cake mixes in her house. Coconut from fresh coconuts, black walnut cake from harvested black walnuts (those things are hard to crack), peanut cake made with roasted peanuts ground almost like a peanut butter. At family reunions (remember those) people would watch for her and Grandpa to arrive with her cakes, then get slices and hide them away before the meal.
Then those great peach fried pies fried in a big ol black cast iron pan.

Fried chicken, rice and gravy, fried okra and her biscuits that i just cannot come close to replicating. My great grandmother showed me how to poke a hole with my little finger and pour syrup in those biscuits. I once tried to eat the whole pan of okra too. Man her chicken was the best

That sound good, did you put the syrup in the biscuits when they were cooking or afterwards?

My mom always said that the secret to a moist pound cake was in mixing it up for a long time.

Mom put an lemon glaze over the top of that pound cake 🍰 & it was out of this world!

Have to go with my Mom's "Butter and Sugar" sandwiches on Merita White bread with the brown edges cut off.

My Grandmother who lived in Miami would have lobster tails with a warming bowl of melted butter and fresh limes from her backyard garden for lime juice on your lobster. Salt as desired.

My Mom would give us Frosted Flakes in a bowl of whole ice cold milk with fresh strawberries.

My Dad and I would eat sardines out of the can with Saltine Crackers washed down with Coke or Dr. Pepper. If the fish were biting we would eat in the car on the way home and have fried fish for supper.
