True that as my son says, Being born in the country suburbs, down in Memphis. I had my share of greasy fried chicken, catfish, collard greens, sweet potatoes, etc. I did like pecan pie though. Lived through The Elvis days, and the riots after Martin got shot. Just didn't feel right marrying a local gal, and spending the rest of my life, stuck there, so I put my thumb out, and headed to California. Never looked back.
I had to learn how to cook on my own, and travelled to try all the food from SE Asia, India, Japan and such. Mostly I like the Japanese way of cooking. It seems light on the stomach. I do like Sauerkraut, and kimchi also. Used to making my own food. Now I'm into pan roasting Salmon fillets, with perkedel, (potato cakes) and stir fried vegetables with mushrooms. I don't like the Locals style cooking. Always chicken and food with little spices.
But where I live, I can get them to soft boil or scramble eggs, make chicken soup, or pan baked chicken, red rice, and vegetables. I go and buy red bell peppers, yellow onions, garlic, mushrooms, leeks, and the like, to lively up my meals.
I just bought a Tarragon plant, and need to learn how to cook with it. I have bought mustard with it infused inside. It's tasty. But need to learn more ways of using it.
So thanks Bad Azz, for starting the todays menu.
