But actually, the chocolate "gravy" is more like a pudding: make a white sauce (butter, white flour, milk), add sugar, then cocoa powder. Pour it over a hot buttered biscuit, and it's heaven! |

A few more (at least where I came from):
turnip greens sweet potatoes potato salad white beans with ham seasoning fried squash (seasoned with bacon!) sweet corn green beans macaroni and cheese (believe it or not) If you really want to get some southern recipes, a subscription to Southern Living, or buying one of their cookbooks, would be a good idea. Most of the recipes in SL actually come from people in the area. |

White beans are smaller like pinto beans but not as dense. Does that make sense. Pecan Pie has to be the best Tn/southern food. A friend of mine makes a chocolate pecan pie that is sinful.

I didn't mean those things weren't eaten elsewhere, just that they are sort of a "southern tradition" where I grew up. Most of them are also cooked in a particularly southern way as well.
White beans are like navy beans but larger (actually, I prefer navy beans cooked with a small amount of onions and oregano). Butter beans (lima beans) are big down here too. |

Maybe the cold weather up here stunts the poor Horn Pouts growth? The horn pout looks exactly like a mini catfish. I have to tell ya though I liked the catfish better. It's sweeter. |
