Cheers. I do love spicy foods (well-seasoned and spicy hot, all good in my book). I love the Cajun food I've made --gumbo, read beans and rice, shrimp and grits, etc. It's all very wonderful. I didn't grow up there, but I really love Southern food. I make collard greens quite often, it's my favorite braised green.
Speaking of which, pies are not nearly as popular in the North as they are in the South. That's a very bad trend. I mean, maybe for your health it's a very good thing, haha, but they're quite possibly my favorite desserts.
Studel is good, yes. Not a huge fan of poppyseeds in dessert (not to say that I dislike it, it's good, but give me apple any day). I grew up in a region with similar ethnicities (amongst others, too), so I'm familiar with some of these dishes. My grandmother was German, and she made this wonderful dill soup. It had little German-style dumplings filled with fresh dill and cheese, in a creamy dill broth.
Making things from scratch is a dying art, but there will always be people who do it. Anyone who's my roommate will at some point pick up some extra cooking skills by being around me.
I've had very poor attempts at the dish before, but I would like to try a correctly made version of the dish some time.
I have a very easy recipe for traditional Brazilian rice and beans, It’s one of the best I have had, In I few days, time permitting I will post it.
