Cook the Book: New South Grilling

My father, a New York Jew, travelled around the South opening fabric stores. I don't know what the cleaning people in the motel rooms thought of the empty bottles of herring in cream sauce they would find in the trash!

How did a nice Jewish girl from Connecticut end up working on budgets in the White House? I know she told the story on Chefography but it still baffles me! Thanks.

Cook the Book: Cowgirl Cuisine

Memorable only because she served it so often - flank steak, frozen green beans and a dish of Del Monte Queen Anne cherries for dessert - with lots of yelling at the table in between.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: D'Artagnan Heritage Smoked Ham

I like sweet and savory - perhaps ham with paper thin slices of sauteed apples in marmalade and a dollop of carmelized onions.

My dad makes the most amazing preserved vegetables. My grandmother taught him and its a family secret. He won't even tell my mom and my mom has to BEG him to make it. He keeps it in a jar for a few days for the best flavor, but my sister and I would sneak bites that by the time it's supposed to be ready, it's half eaten. It has chinese cabbages, cucumbers, baby onions, and carrots. It sweet, crunchy, sour, spicy (like kimchi! but not red), and salty. The mouth is confused at first, but the stomach is always happy. (I miss my dad!).

It is sorta strange, but IBC rootbeer always reminds me of my dad. As a treat to us kids, once in a while he would stop at the grocery store after work and buy IBC root beer and Vanilla ice cream as a treat for us kids (root beer floats)

My dad loves cabbage rolls. His grandmother used to make them, and the recipe came from the "Old Country".
