Look at this Southern Dressing with Cranberries
http://www.mycookingblog.com/post/1-empebi/6916/Southern-Cornbread-Dressing-with-Cranberries
Cranberries in dressing sm
I put finely chopped fresh cranberries in my Pepperidge Farm Seasoned Bread Stuffing (here in NE). It is a dried bread with stuffing flavoring in which I added cranberries chopped in my food chopper. I also substituted either apple juice or orange juice for the water. I did at one time use Swanson chicken broth instead of water but since I gave up greasy food, I could taste the grease, so I substitute juice. I also sometimes add raisins. People love my stuffing. I bake it separately in a casserole dish for about 45 min. at 350 or until the top starts to brown a little (not too brown). I also add finely chopped celery and 1 small finely chopped onion, 1 stick of low-fat margerine or butter (the butter does not taste greasy).
I am true southern and totally pro-choice
so please tell me what is the difference you posted here in folks from the north and the deep south (I am in south Georgia by the way).
Got a creamed dried beef question. Do you find it best to saute the dried beef in the butter and
then add all the rest or do the cream part first and then add the dried beef at the end. Seems like both ways are in the recipes and just wondered which gets the best.
Cranberries . . .
I love cranberries. I started using mulling spice teabags to spice. I used to use whole spices, cinnamon sticks, allspice and cloves, but they are so hard to fish out. Any spice tea will do, like Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice. I just put 3 teabags in the water before I add the cranberries and leave them in until ready to serve. I make them at least the day before. I also like blueberries or rasberries, which is great served warm over vanilla ice cream. Yum.
Did you know that if you want a sweeter sauce let most of the berries pop. The ones left unpopped are the very tart berries.
:) I feel that way, too. Cranberries don't grow down here!
To me, true dressing has only cornbread in it, too. No white bread. :)
there is also a jello with fresh cranberries receipe
my mom and aunt use to make. can add walnuts or leave it plain.
Dried Beans
I always used to use those for bean soup for our family reunion. About 10 years ago, I made it and the beans were still crunchy! First time I had that problem. I had to throw it all out (20 quarts) and start all over again, yet only had 1 day until the reunion, ran out and bought canned beans. Worked. Now I use canned beans instead.
Never knew what happened, but I'd rather use dried beans because of the cost and shelf life.
Had hysterectomy years ago and not dried up per se but
my face was doing exactly as yours, the flaking of the eyelids. My surgery was in 1984 so it was not that. My dermatologist told me to never ever again put regular soap or those good smelling products on my face and told me to use Cetaphil soap (get at your drug store, Wal-Mart, etc) and I was not believing her but it works. The dry flaky eyelids went away as well as the other dry parts on my face. I tried a lot of the other things the people mentioned on MTs to me but finally found the answer. Try it, I do not think you will be sorry. Hey, by the way, my eyebrows even had dandruff (none on head) in them and that was terrible. Good luck!

Differences in people is what makes the world go round. There's no cut and dried anything anymore
department store, where there is no food being served, and her "baby" isn't being a problem, then you shouldn't have the BIG problem with it that you obviously have. I know my dog is a dog, but I have trained her to be quite well behaved, so I don't have a problem taking her around. Only you are the one who is taking this whole thing as rude. I take my dog into the mall all the time and it's no big deal. I'm not being rude or discourteous to anyone and I mind my own business. It really sounds like you need to do the same. Live and let live.
Recipe for oven dried tomatoes with olive oil, sea salt and garlic!? Where? Please share! NM

dressing
To each his own. I wish I did like cornbread dressing, but I absolutely do not! My best friend wouldn't fix anything else. As far as bread goes, I toast white/wheat bread in the oven first. Add ground pork, ground beef, celery, onions, garlic, 1 bunch of fresh parsley. Very good!!
hair dressing
Check your closest beauty supply store. I think you may be looking for what is called a "hair dressing." They smell good, come in light to heavy. I use one on my "babies" who have extremely curly hair. They are biracial, but do not have the coarse black African hair. Their hair is just extremely curly and the hair dressing adds shine and moisture, not oil, to their hair.
YUM, my mom's dressing balls.
made with different varieties of day-old bread, onions, celery, S&P, chicken broth and poultry seasoning, formed into balls, brushed with melted butter and baked until crispy on the outside. DEELISH!!
country club dressing sm
Just attended a wedding at a country club. No matter where you go, everyone dresses differently. I would wear a dress or nice pants & top with some jewelry if you have any. Some of the men had suits and some had just a shirt and tie (with slacks, of course!). I wore a plain short dress with a jacket handy because the place was so air conditioned, and a nice necklace, nylons and a slight heel. Everyone was dressed differently. Just make sure your hair looks neat, your crowning glory, then the rest of you will feel just fine. I think since it is your family, you may feel better if you just look neat with a little jewelry that's in your budget. They are very fortunate that you are celebrating their milestone. Wearing a smile and taking lots of pics and giving a copy to the couple will put you high on their list. Have fun!!!
I just said yuck to the cranberry dressing
Don't understand why you read more into yuck! Unbelievable!
Formerly from Jersey, up there called it stuffing, down here they say dressing - HUH?

The older guys, unless cross dressing
or otherwise, would never think of burning candles just like they would not take bubble baths. I think your sexual preference is whatever you want but I do not, for me, want a metrosexual (I want facials, skin care, pedicures - you get the picture) man. As an older woman, I just like total masculine myself for a hubby, don’t want to second guess why he is using my makeup, candles, fingernail polish and the like. Any time you have to guess like the post did, there is probably more underlying than you see on the surface.
try italian dressing powder packet that you mix yourself. sm
i marinate for about 3-4 hours in this and then grill. tastes really good. you'll have to mix it with vinegar. read packet and mix as directed and then marinate in it.
Salmon with Makoto ginger dressing
This was our dinner tonight. DH made the salmon on the grill. Put it on foil with salt and pepper on low heat on the gas grill, he says. Total time on the grill was around 25 minutes (big, thick pieces), and about the last 7-10 minutes he put the dressing on with a brush. The thick part of the dressing stayed on top and the thinner part ran down onto the foil and carmelized the bottom (skin) side. We had fancy bread and sweet potatoes (microwaved with skins on) with it.
Salmon is so good for us, but the flavor is too strong for me unless it is doctored up to smooth the flavor down. This was fabulous. If you like ginger, try it.
You misread my post. I was saying the usual dressing (since that is what they sm
call it down here) with added cranberries. I have never made it like that. I was saying that sounded yummy. I can't believe you got offended at this post. Unbelievable.
Someone posted a recipe for baking chicken in bbq sauce and Italian dressing... SM
Does anyone have that recipe? I am making chicken tonight and need something that I can throw together and stick in the oven while I'm working. I haven't cooked in a couple of days and the natives are getting restless for a home cooked meal!
Hard-boiled eggs, shredded cheese, olives, dressing of choice.nm

I love tuna with the mayo on salad with hot and sweet peppers and creamy italian dressing. YUM!
Just had to share - it's delicious.

It's 50 right now in southern AZ, (sm)
and it's supposed to get up to 76 degrees this afternoon. I feel for all you braving the cold as I am a displaced Midwesterner myself just like I'm sure you're all feeling for me when it's 110 degrees here in July and August! LOL! :)
Southern
The accents here are very Southern. I live in lower AL. Lots of people here think I have an accent, I am from WI. But when I talk to people from there, they think I have an accent.
Southern also-nm

Southern by birth
Full of holes.....
Same here, but with a Southern twist -
Some young child grinning from ear to ear shouts in his hillbilly accent that I can barely understand (and I transcribe plenty of ESLs!) why one should buy cars from his dad. I want to tell them I might if I could understand something besides every tenth word...Brother!
Gotta be southern
NM
I don't know either but the southern cooking
is the only thing I could think of ...like Louisiana....the bayou....that kind of south??? Have NO IDEA!
southern dressin'
So you don't put white bread in your dressin'? Just cornbread? Cause the kind I make, I put 7 slices of toasted bread along with 1 sleeve of saltines. But absolutely no fruit whatsoever...
Here in southern Minnesota. . .
They call anything with barbeque sauce and meat that you eat on a bun "barbecues." Just last weekend we were getting together with husband's family and my MIL called and asked me if she should make "barbecues." I guess it does sound odd. It took me a while to get used to it. Another thing that took me a while to get used to was that a casserole was called "hot dish." It could be any kind of casserole, and they just called it "hot dish."
Southern California $2.20-ish.

Its 31 in southern Oregon
And feels like 20 degrees inside my house.
It is a southern thing I think....sm
I am southern and my mom used to do this a lot. She would buy a coke and put a little bag of peanuts in it.
I tried it and no the peanuts don't get mushy. It does make the coke salty too. I think it is tasty actually.
I think it is a Southern thing.
Our electric was much cheaper on the west coast than it is in Mississippi.
American Southern Language
Okay, I need some help. I live northern Florida - not a native. A friend of mine in dental school says one of his instructors uses this phrase, "Your work looks like a cat could go through it." No one in the class knows what this means. Anyone know? TIA
This Southern Gal is in total agreement with you! Nothing else need be said.

Ok southern cooks..anyone remember K&W's...
7-layer salad? I used to spend my summers with my grandparents in NC and we never went to a K&W cafeteria that I did not get my fair share of that 7-layer salad. Loved it! I wanna make a good batch of it for the 4th...now I have looked online at several sites and the recipes are out there..but vary slightly by cook's taste I'm sure. Have any of you ever made it and came pretty darn close to K&W's? I'm seeing them either call for regular mayo and some sugar or Miracle Whip...or even several specified Hellman's. Just wanting to know anyone who knows that K&W I'm looking for and which combination of ingredients might be the best to use to get it. Thanks everyone and hope you all enjoy a great 4th!
My cousin hunts, southern but don't know
how that fits into taking sausage balls with him when he goes hunting as he doesn't do that, might just be what your husband likes instead of being a so called southern thing but back to the hunting- my cousin married for 30+ years, went hunting all the time but met another woman and decided did not want to spend the rest of his life with the 30+ years wife and 2 grown kids so left and eventually married the other. He also spent loads of time away from home going to huh, meetings. I would be most concerned if hubby spending lots of time away from me. I think some men are into their things- such as his not wanting you to wear his T-shirts, etc. Seems like the problems you 2 are having are more than just a cooking pan.

Is Rotel a Southern Thing?
I just heard of it today, for the first time. Is it like cheese whiz?
It's 31 degs in southern oregon
and even colder inside my house (or so it feels like). Lucky DH is still under the electric blanket.
Oh, why not try a southern dish, possum
I absolutely have heard of people that have ate this, heard it is terribly greasy. Rabbit is another thing as is squirrel but I have never had, to me it would seem like eating my pet cat. Have heard of all the above except yattle. My mother visiting Mexico years ago told me of having a dish with unborn goat (guess they aborted the babies from the mother goats, ewwwwwww)but then she also ate things like pickled pig feet, pork brains, cow tongue and tripe. My brother and I mostly grossed out. Surprised she did not eat chittlings! Over the years I have stuck to more main stream here in the US and presently hubby and I eat a lot of chicken, not because of it being a more economical meat but more the way they are raised, that being more organic.
Yep, southern to the core and do a lot of ESLs
and understand, never wish anyone anything bad so to them just wish they would go on a permanent vacation in Tahiti. What I really hate is when 1 after another after another continue on the weekends and that is all you get. UGH.
Know the southern mansion Blue Willow
and we have been there before. Lovely, all you can eat place, reasonable but their food still is not as good as what I can get here at my home. To pay and still have substandard food is not acceptable to me. I do not know how places stay in business. I can count on 1 hand the places where food is tasty and ? good for you also.
