Atlantic South

The Atlantic South stretches from Delaware all the way down to southern Florida. The modern culinary history of this sub-region stretches back to 1565, when Spaniards waded ashore to establish the first European colony in America at Saint Augustine, Florida. The Spanish introduced pigs and peaches into the Americas. Centuries later, pork barbecue rules the South and peaches command the orchards of Georgia and South Carolina. Seafood is on the menu all along the Atlantic South, from the blue crab of the Chesapeake Bay to the conch fritters of Key West. Rice once dominated the Lowcountry of South Carolina and Georgia. Though the industry has long since died out, the rice-based dishes that grew up here, like Hoppin’ John, remain.

I added a tsp of vanilla extract to the dough and used strawberry preserves. I used a tablespoon to scoop then the back of a 1/4 tsp to imprint the dough and fill in with the preserves. These kind of melt in your mouth when fresh out of the oven since the center is warm and sweet and the cookie is light and buttery. Had to take these in to share with everyone because they would not have lasted very long in the house!

Pork Tetrazzini

Reviewed on Dec. 2, 2008 by MOLLE888
Not good at all. I am dumbfounded by the great reviews of this. It was so bland and unappetizing! The sauce just tasted of flour paste. I didn't change a single thing about this recipe and I wish that I had... more spices, less flour... something! At least it was just a waste of leftover pork and cheap spaghetti noodles. Thanks anyway.

Downeast Maine Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed on Dec. 2, 2008 by Dee Dee
YUM! I just burnt the tastebuds off my tongue b/c I couldn't wait to eat it. At least, the first bite was a 5 star. Doubled the spices. Made 5 mini-loaves and 6 muffins. Baked both at 350--the loaves for 37 min. and the muffins for 20 min. Also subbed half the oil with applesauce (none the wiser), and scaled down the sugar to 2 1/3 c. (half white, half brown). Made these for a fundraiser.
