And it should be noted that Alessio saying "The flavor doesn't need to be covered up", that was the genesis of soul food. Soul food was born out of black slaves being given the worst parts of the food. The slave owners ate the turnips, so they gave the greens to the slaves. The ham hock was a piece of the ham that the slave owners threw away. The turnip greens were bitter and didn't taste great by themselves, and there really wasn't any meat on the ham hock. The ham hock couldn't really be eaten by itself, so it was used to cover up the bitter flavor of the greens. There's a lot of amazing history and stories of resilience in these dishes, and the "overpowering the flavor of the vegetables" is one of those stories in the greens.
@carolynturk-hu7je4 ай бұрын

I grew up in Florida and when we'd make our sweet potatoes, we baked them in fresh orange peels. Here's the recipe: Boil sweet potatoes and add the usual brown sugar, cinnamon, butter. If you add milk, replace it with freshly squeezed orange juice. Save the peels of the halved oranges. Scoop the sweet potatoes into the peels and bake with marshmallows on top. Sometimes I add roasted walnuts or pecans to the mashed sweet potatoes for a little texture. Garnish with a little orange zest and serve the potatoes in the orange peels. Delish!!!

Native Texan here, no!!!! to marshmallow topping for sweet potatoes. Brown sugar, chopped pecans, real butter, oats or flour or crushed cornflakes, maybe a little cinnamon (I am firmly in the no-nutmeg camp) mix this all together -- put this over your sweet potatoes last 15 mins of baking = heaven! My family eats all of these foods for Thanksgiving and Christmas. My East Texas husb grew up putting his black-eye peas over sweet not jalapeno cornbread (we always make both sweet and jalapeno cornbread), mushing it all up, and pouring sweet tiny pickle juice over it. I do not do this lol. Fried catfish is delicious. It never tastes like fish. My Mom always made banana pudding for me when I wld come back from school trips, band trips, etc. I am still trying to create the perfect pecan pie. I am in the custard (non see through) pecan pie camp. Others are in the translucent, see through pecan pie camp. When I create the perfect pecan pie recipe, I will not offer these perfect pecan pies for sale. Such deliciousness transcends such things as mere money. I will donate the recipe to humanity, bec the perfect pecan pie recipe, if it is indeed perfect, will have the power to mend broken hearts, end conflict and strife, and enable humanity to finally unite in the joy of experiencing such happiness together The food in this video is the food of life.

Because when the Yankees, during the civil war, came to the Southern states, they burned many of the fields so that the southerners would not have as much food.

The greens usually have smoked meat in them, whether it is greens or cabbage etc. and the should be eaten with the cornbread. as should the black-eyed peas. Actually a dish of black eyed peas with collard greens cornbread are standard for new years. If you want to go further and dive deeper into African American culture, a good old Hoppin' John, which is a black-eyed pea dish with onion, green bellpepper over a bed of rice (or mixed), and a side of cornbread and some collard greens are even better . The greens represent prosperity, the peas are for luck., and it skips my head right now what the rice represents. Other must haves shrimp and grits sweet potato pie (as you have said) smothered liver and onions (not everyone does this well. or likes it) mixed greens. (collards with mustard, collards with turnip or all three. It is not traditional to mix in kale, but it is the same family so It iss something I have had to substitute here in the Netherlands)

Okay, southern woman checking in again. 1. Cooked greens need hot vinegar. Hot as in spicy. Turnip greens are the mildest greens imho. 2. I’m married to a German National from Hamburg. He says cabbage needs red pepper flakes. I’m half Cajun and Mexican American. I approve his stance. 3. Black eyed peas are a NYD staple called Hoppin John. It’s black-eyed peas, rice, and turnip greens. This trifecta is supposed to bring you good luck in the new year. And don’t forget the pepper vinegar and the hot sauce! 4. Mac & cheese should not be mush. Try it sometimes in a baked recipe. The pasta stays firm, the cheese isn’t liquid, and it can be cut like a piece of pie. Add some breadcrumbs or some crumbled crackers into it when you cook it. Add the same on the top. You can hold it in your hand and not have the cheese run through your fingers. Pasta should be firm. 5. Wanna try atwo ingredient easy dish? Get a can of field peas and snaps that is the glory brand. But, before you open the can, slice of kielbasa and browned it in a skillet. Then dump the can over it. If you want a little extra, serve it over cooked white rice. Add hot sauce if you’d like. But that is a simple Cajun supper for a few dollars. 6. If the corn bread is made in a cast-iron skillet then it is the best. Jalapeño is optional. Copious amounts of butter on your piece of cornbread is not. 7. I live in Nashville. Our signature dish is Nashville hot chicken. But there are many smaller places that I also do Nashville hot fish with catfish. Highly recommend! But if you get a sandwich, make sure your coleslaw is not a sloppy wet mess. You want it more on the cabbage side versus the mayonnaise side. You want the crunch is an accent. You don’t want slop.
