My name is Odessa Mae. You cooked for a full house once. Six at the table, nine on a Sunday, and pots to match every one of them.
In this video I walk you through every one of them, in the order I cook them, the way my mama and her mama did it.
In this video:
âś“ Hamburger steak smothered in onion gravy
âś“ Cornmeal porgy with vinegar onions
âś“ Shrimp with butter, green onion and cracked pepper
âś“ Skillet macaroni with tomato and sweet onion
âś“ Beef stew meat with carrot and onion under a lid
âś“ Smoked herring with onion and tomato
âś“ A small skillet of chili
âś“ Canned corned beef browned down with onion
None of this was ever a secret. It just never made it onto a page, because the women who knew it were too busy cooking to write it down.
Cook one of these tonight the way somebody showed you. Then tell me in the comments whose kitchen you learned it in, what county, and what it smelled like when it was right. I read every one of them.
Stay close to the stove. And remember, the women who fed this country out of one pot knew things we are only just starting to remember.
