sugar cream pie
hubby took me out for mothers day dinner and one of the deserts was "sugar cream pie". I've never heard of it but, it was really good. very small piece was all you needed. has anyone else heard of this and do you have the recipe?

Whatever happened to?
Whatever happened to the curly black headed girl that won the Food Network's cooking contest that was suppose to have her own show this year. the contest Guy Fieri won the year before. their advertising a new contest and i don't remember seeing her on at all. God knows I don't remember her name, I'm sorry. Was it Lisa?
Chef Pasquale from early 90's t.v.
i would love to have one of his cookbooks and i can't remember his full name. he was an older gentleman that had the strong italian accent and he made italian cooking so easy. He wore the big white chef's hat and used alot of orange juice in his recipes.
someone please remember.
The refrigerator............?
side by side, freezer up or freezer down, which do prefer? i have side by side and to tell your the truth i have never cared for it. for those of you out there that have a freezer down, do you like it?
cannoli's
who in new york city or anywhere has the best and does anyone have a recipe i can fix at home. i live in west virginia now and i havent had one since 1966. this must be why i'm depressed, lol.
smith island cake
hearing so much about this cake and i probably have enough cake pans so i would like to try it
does anyone have funnel cake recipe?
my kids want to make the funnel cakes like you buy at carnivals, parades and amusement parks. its the fried dough sprinkled with powdered sugar. we have a birthday party coming soon so could someone out there help. oh, its for my youngest, and she turns eighteen. tell me time doesnt fly, yeah right.
school lunches, now and back when i went in the 60's & 70's
i remember when school lunchs were homemade. nothing was frozen. how you could by peanut butter or egg salad sandwiches everyday for 15 cents. yes im in my 50's but, this is not that long ago. whatever happened with the money for our kids that use to be set aside by our school boards for fresh foods. homemade meatloaf, vegetable soup, fish and fries, the list could go on. this makes me sad that most of the kids dont even eat the food perpared for them, they go hungrey. i know you cant sell a sandwich for 15 cents now, thats not the point, teaching our kids to eat healthy and to make smart choices is. have u ever volunteered at the lunch room, i have, most of the food gets dumped in the garbage can. its sickening.
recipe of greek fingerfood with grape leaves, rice & feta cheese
grew up next door to a wonderful greek family and remember as a child being called into their kitchen to sample a plate of whatever mrs. vondas was cooking for supper, (also remember both cheeks being pinched, greek thing?) would love to know what these spiniach entrees are called and how to make them.
I was gifted new pressure cooker: need recipes and cookbook titles
so far i have made only pot roast in this Bravetti 6 quart. it turned out great.
so very easy, push one button to start and one button to let steam out. nothing like mom used when we were little and had to be run out of the house in fear that it would blow up. this thing is great, everyone should have one because of the speed in preparing a meal. no i don't work for the company, just a stay at home mom

sugar cream pie
no, its like a custard made out of heavy cream, texture is very thick and creamy tasting, very good.
Cookey, give one of these recipes a try, it looks to me like they know just what i'm talking about.
sugar cream pie
brownie i believe that just might be the recipe, i'm gonna give it a try and see.
chiffonade i thought that it was a custard pie when i looked at it. i thought it looked interesting and something i had never tried. since i have diabetes i just wanted a taste just to see for myself what it was. i was really surprise how rich. i asked the waiter and he told me the name of it.
i live in west virginia next to the kentucky borderline and we had went into ky. to dine out.
i guess you all are like me, when i see something different i have to give it a try. as kids we were raised to eat a variety of different foods and nowadays alot of kids that are my childrens friends are such picky eaters i just can't stand it.
life is too short to miss out on something you may really like and let it pass you by because your afraid to take just one bite.
thank you guys so much for your help, i love this site and i check it everyday when i check my e-mail. it's sorta like a friendship in cooking.
Top Chef - Should Jennifer have been sent home?
i agree 100% with you guys, this is the worst top chef i have seen. i think that richard will win because its so clear that they are crazy about him. spike and niki should have left weeks ago. i haven't seen a dish on there yet that i would eat. oh' and what is up with ryan, he's so weird. he has such a complex.
The first time I tasted ____ it was so vile I spit it out
orange marmalade, that stuff is just awful
This lesson I learned might help a beginner cook/baker.
remember to use all-purpose flour instead of self-rising to make home-made chicken-in-dumplins. for some reason my dumplins dissappeared with the self-rising flour and i had the thickess soup, lol.
Chef Pasquale from early 90's t.v.
you guys are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i'm so glad i ran across Serious Eats, with every question i've asked the people on here have been so helpful, i don't even know you and i love you. lol, lol, lol.
i have wondered about Pasquale for years and for some absent part of my brain i didn't even think about Amazon. thank you southern bella. by the way i am italian and my mom will be 86 on sunday and she has called me bella all my life. thank you, thank you
Terrible Kitchen Odors
oh no guys, i think i've smelled the one of the worst things in the world cooking and that is "chitlins", i don't even know if i spelled it right. i was 10 and i went into a carry out in washington d.c. and they had them boiling on a stove. right back out the door i remember going with my parents. AWFUL, AWFUL SMELL!!!!!
Canning anyone?
Liznyc is right, the Ball website is very good and i also have the handbook which i keep right at my side in the kitchen during canning season. you can purchase this at Wal-Mart for 5 or 6 bucks. its a great thing to have around. i love canning, its so easy, not intimidating at all and, i gotta tell ya there's something about looking up on your shelf and seeing all what you have accomplished.

sugar cream pie
I had never heard of it until I moved here (Indianapolis) and my neighbor's dog jumped on the counter and polished off that night's dessert (the sugar cream pie) and then started in on the lasagna, before getting busted. That dog knew the order of things: life is short, eat dessert first.
We all had a good laugh, grilled some burgers and dogs (hot dogs, not the Greaty Pyrenes who ate dessert--LOL), and picked up a quart of Ritter's frozen custard while everyone told me how much they love sugar cream pies...have yet to try one.
sugar cream pie
@butterface- Have made and love both, but they are very different in flavor.
The sugar cream pie is much sweeter and has a plainer firm custard-type taste and feel. The buttermilk pie is actually quite tangy, more yellow and is actually baked rather than cooked and poured into the pre-made shell. It has eggs, whereas the sugar-cream does not, and usually uses flour rather than cornstarch as a thickener which gives it a slightly looser consistency.
Now in my book, neither beats chess pie, but the buttermilk has a really neat flavor. I like it just right out of the pan warm and soft, whereas I prefer the sugar-cream very cold and with a fruit topping of some kind to cut the sweetness.
All yummy though. :)

This sounds a lot like the southern Buttermilk Pie. Has anyone made both? comparisons on taste?

@Madame Tart...Way off topic here but Bob Evans' Pot Roast Hash is one of my favorite breakfast dishes ever.
sugar cream pie
Many years ago, when I was a kid in Ohio, we used to go to the Bob Evans restaurant that was near my orthodontist's office (ouch!). It was always a treat to have dinner there, before my teeth starting aching again. The restaurant menu was more homestyle in those days, I think, with an emphasis on sausage rather than burgers. No matter what else I ate, I always ordered the sugar cream pie for dessert. It (almost) made up for the torture of the tightening bands. . .
sugar cream pie
This is a good pie, I always want a bite after a dinner of fried chicken, as it makes me think of being south. Yum.
Very sweet, and I like it with fruit on top. My best friend, who loves all things sugar and creamy, skips the crust and pours it in to dishes like pudding. (She also makes it with heavy cream.)
Sugar Cream Pie
* 1 pie shell, baked
* 1 cup sugar
* 1/8 teaspoon salt
* 2 1/2 cups half and half
* 5 tablespoons cornstarch
* 1 teaspoon vanilla
* 6 tablespoons butter
* freshly grated nutmeg (the jarred version is fine too)
Mix sugar, cornstarch, half-and-half, and salt in saucepan. Cook to boiling point. Add vanilla and the butter; return to heat. Cook, stirring constantly until thickened. If there are any lumps, put through a find sieve. Pour the mixture into pie shell and sprinkle with nutmeg.
Don't Get Bean Boozled
I haven't had those, but I did get a box of Bertie Bott's beans, which had most of those flavors. Black pepper is actually pretty good. Vomit is predictably vile. Earwax is bland but bitter.
The booger ones don't really have a taste, they're just sweet, which must be what attracts little kids.
Down Home With The Neely's Dilemma!
The Neely's need to go back to Memphis and watch Rachael Ray, Bobby Flay, "Barefoot Contessa," Jamey Oliver and Iron Chef to learn how to "cook" on a cooking show. I do not like how they talk and ramble about everything expect for cooking. "Big Daddy" this give me a "kick" here sounds so juvenile and inmature and I am an African-American Southern woman writing these comments.
Food Network, this is supposed to be a "cooking show" not tips on how to please your mate. Pat would be ok if Gina left because he seems serious and all she does is laugh and make "stupid and inappropriate" comments. Children may watch this show and unless they start acting like professional chefs, Food Network needs to "can them!" Please listen to our suggestions and comments
