Scottish ShortbreadThis is the most famous cookie of Scotland. It’s a must to use pure butter. Traditionally, shortbread contains no other flavor. I’ve been making this recipe since 1970 when I got the recipe in Edinburgh, Scotland. The addition of a small amount of rice flour gives a firmness and crunchiness to the cookie.

Holiday Ham with Pineapples (Easter or Christmas)This is the way my Nanny and Mom made our holiday ham. We had it for Easter, Christmas and side by side with turkey on Thanksgiving.

Just thicken the juices with a… |

Southern Low Country Braised Pig's FeetThis recipe sings low country with high notes. A very significant part of African American heritage and culture. Pig's feet, along with the other 'undesirable' discarded parts, like ears and chittlins' were a staple in the slaves' diets as well as pinto beans and cornbread, also their personal vegetable gardens. This was sustainable… |

Irish Stew for a CrowdTips: -The picture here shows what it looks like with additional broth; add more at will. -The beef browning process is a little flawed. If you aren't particular about a sear on the outside of the pieces, then proceed as directed. -Salt isn't an ingredient, but you must add it, to your liking. Credit goes to the Nesco 18-Qt. Roaster… |

I have fond memories of going there as a child, working there as a waitress just out of high school, and going there for dinner while I was in labor with my first child (hey, a girl has to eat!). Here is a recipe that my sister and I… |

Pumpkin TassiesPerfect for holiday gatherings, these little tarts will disappear fast and are the perfect size when folks want just a little sweet treat. Because not everyone has mini-size muffin pans, I have included photos and baking instructions for using regular muffin pans. |

Tallerine CasseroleTallerine, talerine, tallerini...I’ve no idea of the spelling or origin of this vintage casserole but it remains a crowd pleaser yet today. I’ve tweaked my 70's recipe somewhat ~ it’s one of those recipes that adapts easily to variations. |
