Miss Mary's Down-Home Cooking


Book Description

This is mouth-watering, authentic Southern cooking at its best, courtesy of Miss Mary Bobo, whose boarding house down-home dishes have made her justly famous. For 80 years, anyone lucky enough to pass through tiny Lynchburg, Tennessee, could taste her appetizing, remarkably economical, and easy-to-fix meals. The recipes were passed from mother to daughter, and now 120 of them are here so anyone can prepare them right at home. Whip up traditional, finger-licking favorites such as Skillet Corn Bread, rich and hearty Country Fried Steak with Buttermilk Gravy, and fresh and luscious Peach Cobbler. Make classic Southern specialties: Hush Puppies, Hoppin' John (spiced up black-eyed peas, ham hocks, and rice, only eaten on New Year's Day), and the most delicately crisp Fried Chicken ever. There are flaky biscuits; wonderful gelatin molds; holiday treats; and to-die-for desserts, including a spectacular, incomparable four-layer Fresh Coconut Cake. Plus: a look at Miss Mary's personal story.

Mary Ellen's Down Home Cook'n


Book Description

This book is the accumulation of recipes that came mainly from the kitchen of a woman that was dear to my heart and that is my Aunt Mary Ellen Macon. Mary Ellen resided in the South, West Point, Mississippi. At a very young age she learned how to cook. As time passed, Ms. Macon became well known for her cooking. She would cook at parties and for other events. She also was the caretaker of the mother of the President of Coca-Cola. Mary Ellen was a master in the kitchen when it came to cooking. I can remember when she would come to visit our family how she would prepare the meals without even having to measure out the ingredients. She had that special touch. One of my favorites was when she baked dinner rolls. Her rolls were so light that would melt in your mouth. When she cooked a meal she always had a dessert to go with it. You could gain ten (10) pounds in a week from eating her food. Because of her passion for cooking this book is written in remembrance of her.
