Bebe’s Pecan Pie

December 14th, 2008 · 1 Comment

I’ve got several recipes for pecan pie, and this year, tried one from James Villas, a good old Southern cook, who was writing in Southern Food. It was fine, but I still prefer the one from my late husband’s aunt, Bebe. She’s from the Mobile area (Grand Bay, Ala.), where pecan trees used to outnumber [...]

December 13th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Snickerdoodles, snickerdoodles, snickerdoodles!!! Next to chocolate chip cookies, these have to be an all-time favorite cookie across the country. (My web master points out there’s one made with the ganga weed.)

Brussels Sprouts and Duck Fat

December 12th, 2008 · 3 Comments

Vegetarians: Skip this post. A discussion I read about cooking in duck fat - see below - led me to remember the small jar of bacon drippings my mother always kept around — a fixture in Southern kitchens, of course. That led me to a recipe I recited last night at dinner to a seatmate for my favorite way [...]
