Where has all the yellow corn gone?!
A couple of thousand (at least) acres of yellow corn around me. ~~ Local gardens are full of mostly yellow corn. ~~ Grocery stores are full of Florida Yellow Sweet Corn...Some Bi-Color

No taste...Funky texture.

Cooking Squash
Southern Style ~~~~ In butter or margarine S_L_O_ W_L_Y caramelize at least 1/2 or more of a large onion sliced (I use a whole one)...Vidalia if at all possible. Trim and slice the squash into round circles...not to thin. Add a little water to the pan and cook until your desired degree of doneness...Salt & Course Pepper to taste. ~~ Some folks use bacon fat to caramelize the onion in place of the butter/margarine....or you could use a little of both. ~~ How long to cook is a personal preference...From 'jes' tender to all the way down to where the squash is soft and a dark, dark yellow mixture of squash and caramelized onions....or anywhere in between.
Another idea I like sometimes is to cook the squash done with the onions until very soft...add a little flour and/or meal..maybe a beaten egg...form into patties and pan fry in hot oil. Mmmmm Mmmmm...Fried squash patties...Good eats!!
Have Fun!

My Love Affair With Worcestershire Sauce [moved from Home Cooking]
Don't use it as a strict condiment that much, but 'Wooster' sauce and little dry white wine goes in everything but Pecan Pie, Peach Cobbler, Buttermilk Pie, Banana Puddin, Corn bread, biscuits......well you get the idea.
But you'll love it the way I cook it!
Mmmmmm no Okra, no tomato, dark roux....My favorite!!!!
But you'll love it the way I cook it!
That's certainly one popular 'story'! ~~ Another one, just as credible, is that the name comes from the Choctaw Indian word for Sassafras....The leaves ground into a powder (File) to thicken soups, etc.... An old trick the Choctaws taught the very earliest/first French explorers.. ...LaSalle and his merry band of soup lovers upon arriving in the lower Mississippi Valley... Oh..The Choctaw word for Sassafras? ~~ Kombo
But you'll love it the way I cook it!

Interior color of ground beef
Meat "blooms" (turns red) due to oxygen coming in contact with the myoglobin. ~ break the ground meat open for a few minutes and the interior will "bloom" as well. ~

After school snack memories
Not many snack foods at my house ~~~ Mostly I remember getting off the school bus, going to the kitchen and making toast in a little toaster oven. I covered the toast in homemade Strawberry Figs. Yum! The bread came from a discount bakery...10 loaves for $1 (10 cents a loaf) The figs were from two enormous fig trees in the back yard.
