Thank you so much!!!

[@kateg7298]

I've never even heard of Ham Perlo. It looks fantastic.

[@memesrecipessc]

oh so good!!

[@cindyfeis6396]

Ms. Diane, I am a Yankee from Colorado living in N.C. I've fallen in love with your southern cooking and I thank you for sharing. I do not know what the essence is and was hoping you could educate me. Please. I believe Jesus shines on you. ❤

[@memesrecipessc]

Basically the liquid or drippings from cooking the ham.🙂

[@cindyfeis6396]

@@memesrecipessc Well, I feel a little silly for not knowing. Thank for your time, and your recipes.

[@TheEthaxton]

Please dont be rude. In the south, we like our tea sweet! MeMe is keeping our Southern cooking alive for a younger generation. Bless your heart.

[@TheEthaxton]

Try her recipes. They are truly delicious!

[@Ocheri-77]

I’ve never heard of ham perlo either and I’m a southern cook. I’m definitely going to try it. Ms Diane can you please show us your method of making a ham? I’d love to see your process. Your hams always look so good.

[@cumberlandquiltchic1]

Look at all that good natural collagen in the ham broth! I see so many buying expensive powders and capsules of collagen. We always ate the natural forms from broths and plenty of jello (gelatin). Looks good!

[@memesrecipessc]

It's so good!😋🙂❤️

[@Jeannified]

I always make chicken perlo. The little southern town I grew up in had a yearly rice festival, definitely rice is The southern dish.

[@The7thLETTERSC]

I’m from Walterboro and we have a yearly rice festival, and when it comes to perlo any meat can make a perlo in my family. We may tripe Perlo rice, okra perlo rice, hamburger meat perlo, rice, not to be confused with jambalaya. rib tip Perlo, rice, chicken, neck, Perlo rice, greens Perlo rice lol

[@julieanderson6345]

​@@The7thLETTERSCthat's where I'm from, Walterboro. That big pot of rice is soooo tasty 🤤

[@patiedwards389]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe & meal. This is a new way for me to use leftover ham! Generally, I make a scalloped potato dish with leftover ham and then pea or bean soup with the bone. Also, I absolutely love that there is a use for the ham essence. I would save some for soups and stews but this is also new to me. Thank you again for sharing your love of cooking with us .

This Ham Perlo and Fried Squash recipe looks so delicious 😋 Ms. Diane. I also enjoyed watching you make your sweet sweetned Iced Tea as well.

[@memesrecipessc]

No meal is complete without the sweet iced tea!

[@BiscuitsMom917]

I always use the ham bone in a pot of beans. I have so many uses for ham. We love it.

[@memesrecipessc]

It's so good!😋

[@Rickettsia505]

I've had chicken perlo from the lowcountry, and it had sausagen onion, bell pepper and some cayenne. I'll bet this is delicious!

[@memesrecipessc]

It is!!😋🙂❤️

[@TheNostalgiaNest]

Meme I love seeing how you lay out your meal for your family. Seeing the glasses filled with water and tea reminded me of my family- they have all passed on now. I made your recipe for chocolate delight this past Sunday and let me tell you they gobbled it down and it was gone! Thank you for your advice and wonderful instruction. God Bless you and your ministry! ❤️ Denise from Wa State

[@elaineh7993]

I'll try this recipe! We usually have ham, roast beef, mashed potatoes, broccoli and corn, cranberry sauce, and homemade biscuits and deviled eggs! You went above and beyond for your Easter dinner! Would have loved to come over to your house for dinner!

[@memesrecipessc]

Thank you!!😋

[@lindahill9392]

My family’s been making this from my great grandmother, grand mother, mother and myself and now my daughter we call it ham rice in South Carolina so yummy there’s never a grain of rice left 😂❤

[@susangholson960]

This looks great...I have never eaten it but I will now. Thank you again for writing this cookbook and sharing so many tips.😉

[@memesrecipessc]

You are so welcome! It was a labor of love!

[@deborahjean7576]

[@memesrecipessc]

[@tammyreilly9889]

Everything looks delicious Meme!!

[@lisamorris2725]

I love watching you cook, the food looks so good! Love from Ohio!!

[@stampboi]

Hello! I so enjoy watching your videos! I’d love to see how you make your ham!

[@ryancolter3904]

Ive never heard of doing ham this way and so want to try it now. Has to be better then ham and beans.

[@angelalafleur3294]

I cook mine the same way with my roast beef leftovers.

[@janastevens4312]

I always pull the paper tab off the tea bags before steeping.

[@terriegreer4078]

Love the recipe and the video thank you for sharing it

[@memesrecipessc]

Thanks for watching!!

[@GodFearingMom]

we make shrimp perlo in our family. It includes a block of salt pork, a pound of shrimp, 2 cups of rice, a chopped up green bell pepper and a can of tomato paste. It bakes in the oven and it's delicious.

[@memesrecipessc]

Sounds great!😋

[@conniepharr7426]

Never tried the rice dish, I guess mainly because my ham drippings get made into ham gravy for mashed potatoes but I think ham gravy makes almost anything delicious

[@memesrecipessc]

Sounds great!

[@dianejohanson98]

I’ve never seen this ham and rice dish before. Have to make it sometime. Also need to make some squash like this. Never thought of breading it. But it looks good. When I make squash it’s usually sliced and cooked with onions in a little oil and salt and pepper and browned in a frying pan. I usually save my ham bones to make a pot of pinto beans. Yummy with cornbread.

[@memesrecipessc]

It's so good! Enjoy!

[@AlmaMercer]

Oh! I'm inviting myself to dinner 😂😂

[@memesrecipessc]

🤭😂👍🏻🙂❤️

[@tammyheatherly4646]

How can I get one of your cookbooks? I'm a real fan. You have some great talent in the kitchen.

[@memesrecipessc]

Thank you for your interest!! www.memesrecipessc.com

[@sandraasher6663]

Thank you, I wanted to know also

[@NotKev2017]

I made a ham last week that I wanted to use some ham for a dish. it was a smoked ham also. I didn't have any ham essence or beef stock, but I did have a large can of chicken broth. I cut up some onion (about a half of a cup and put it in with the butter and the chicken broth. Then I added my rice and a cup of water so the rice would get done. It sure does smell good. I hope it tastes as good as it smells.

[@memesrecipessc]

Sounds great!😋🙂

[@barefootingnc]

Happy Easter 🐰 🐣 thanks

[@memesrecipessc]

Thank you too🙂❤️🙏🏻

[@cynrok]

I can't believe you cook all that every week!

[@memesrecipessc]

Every Sunday!

[@leannmosby4452]

I want to tell u I made your fluffy stuff recipe for my husband. But he is not a fan of pineapple, but he does love mandarin oranges. So I used the orange hello and mandarin oranges along with the cool whip and mini marshmallows. Wow it was great. My husband and Grand babies gobbles it up faaaasssstttt. Thanks for the recipe it is going on our traditional holiday dishes for sure.

[@memesrecipessc]

Yummy!!!

[@sandraasher6663]

That is a new dish on me....yummy

[@memesrecipessc]

Hope you enjoy

[@countycalling]

I canned ham stock for the past few times I’ve had a ham bone, I love using it to make this Perlo. It’s one thing I just can’t pass up

[@lindaknight5160]

How can I purchase one of your recipe books or get on a mailing list if you are going to get more printed? It looks like you have sold out😞I love your simple instructions a choice of recipes.

[@memesrecipessc]

www.memesrecipessc.com More are on the way. Thanks for watching!!

[@madcitywendy]

This looks very tasty. So do your outfits. Can I ask where you shop?

[@memesrecipessc]

Mostly Talbots, Chico's, Dillards and sometimes Walmart! : )

[@madcitywendy]

Love you MeMe - we probably are close in age. But your videos make me feel like I am with my mother - who I lost to Alzheimer’s Disease in 1997 - when I was in my 30s. You are so much like her.

[@madcitywendy]

I say all this with absolute love and respect for you. What a beautiful family you have gathered around you.

[@GhettoRanger01]

Wow, that looks really good!

[@memesrecipessc]

My family loves it.😋

[@stef1lee]

Meme- Better Than Boullion makes a Ham base that is pretty close to the essence you have. It doesn't gel but the taste is right on the money. I use it in my pintos and butter beans or great white northern beans. But it's some kinda good. If you can find that and at times it's a bit hard to find, it's also a great substitute for the real deal. Barrington Farms also makes a powdered ham base. It's not as good but works well for a great ham flavor.

[@memesrecipessc]

Thanks for the info!

[@WaterfallFW]

That looks so good! Yum. What do you do with your old grease? Do you put it in the garage? If so how? I love your videos and pray you’re doing well.

[@memesrecipessc]

I save some ham and drippings for this ham rice. I’ll save some in a jar, like bacon grease for future cooking.🙂

[@bettycook9536]

❤

[@jacquelinemilton6387]

Nvr get that much ham liquid out mine

[@carriehenderson1352]

What is ham essences?

[@memesrecipessc]

The juice from the cooked ham! : )

[@jeannettesweigart2550]

Could I bake this to finish it off after boiling on the stove for awhile? I’m looking to cook for 50 people

[@memesrecipessc]

I have never tried that but I think that will work.

[@luciabriseno4065]

I really this recipe. I will definitely be making this dish 👩‍🍳😜😋🦩 Shining for JESUS 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️☦️

[@danababel7505]

One question: do you use regular flour when frying squash or self-rising? I’ve noticed you use self-rising for some of your other dishes. Love the videos so much!

[@justin7997]

Love your videos! Do you have a video on how you prepare your ham? Is the essence just what's left over in the bottom of the pan after you bake?

[@Wannaloom]

I have the same question!

[@gayle7165]

OH WOW!! SOOO MUCH FOOD! All that was just for your family? For just one meal?

[@memesrecipessc]

Yes it was!😋

[@cindyfeis6396]

Geez. There are always leftovers if need be, right MeMe.

[@g-bgcg]

What kind of squash did you use? I have to say, I never heard of ham Perlo. That is a lot of Essence/juice from your ham. Turns out you can use it for other things vs throwing it away. Good to know. Thanks for the video.

[@memesrecipessc]

You’re welcome. I use yellow crookneck squash.😋

[@glenkellner9936]

What kind of squash do you use?

[@memesrecipessc]

Yellow crooked neck.

[@michelebadey3883]

GREAT RECIPES 🙌🙌🙌 MEME I HAVE TO TELL YOU-- YOU ALWAYS LOOK LIKE A MILLION DOLLARS AND YOUR VERY PRETTY AS WELL. ❤❤

[@memesrecipessc]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@ericmgarrison]

Ham Perlo and Chicken Bog are two of my most favorite Southern rice dishes to make. I found this after watching your ham salad video and thought, "I bet there is a Perlo Ham recipe in her playlist!!!!!" Thank you SO SO SO SO much!

[@memesrecipessc]

You are so welcome. It is one of our faves!!

[@memesrecipessc]

Amen!!

[@jacquelinemilton6387]

[@faukerconsulting835]

🤔NO HAM?? BETTER THAN BOUILLON has a ham/pork base (the chicken is awesome and the beef is just like a roasted beef)😁
