Seeing that bowl you mixed the cobbler in unlocked a memory deep from my childhood! I wonder what happened to that thing..

@terribethreed8464 Жыл бұрын

I loved this video lol. Thank you for sharing your recipes with us Hun & your home grown & canned pickled beets look so good. They've always been one of my favorite veggies. There's nothing like the beautiful sound of cornbread batter hitting that hot oil in the skillet lol. Have you ever tried pouring a little bit of cold cream on your black berry cobbler? It'll make you reconsider your ice cream option with your cobbler lol it tastes so good with a little bit of sugar in it with just touch of vanilla. I also like to do my roasts & stews with root veggies like turnips, parsnips, rutabagas, carrots, potatoes, onions & garlic, sometimes mushrooms, I also use McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning to season my meat & I like to quarter my garlic cloves, cut slits into both sides of the roasts & stick a garlic quarter into the slits in the meat & 2 or 3 bay leaves in with the roasts & stews. I also like a little Lee & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce on top of my roasts & a little in with the water in the bottom. It really boosts the flavor of your roasts & stews & veggies. I clean, peel & cut up my root veggies in nice big chunks put some on the bottom of the crock pot, season them with Montreal Steak Seasoning & then put the roast on top of them with the rest of the veggies around the sides of the roasts. The drippings that are left make a perfect thin gravy to pour over the root veggies & slices of roast. The root veggies have a whole different taste after cooking all day with roasts & stews. When you do roasts & stews like that it retains the vitamins & minerals in the root veggies instead of losing them all in boiling water. It diminishes the sulfur taste in the turnips & rutabagas & it just brings out their sweetness & has such a great flavor. I created this years ago & ever since then I've never made any other kind of roasts or stews, my kids all grown now, always ask me to make them when they're here. Please, if you ever try my recipes for my roasts & stews let me honestly know what you think about them. Fall is just around the corner & these are definitely Fall & Winter comfort foods & are especially good the next day if you have any left that is lol. With my 5, 1 girl & four boys the big pots would be empty by the end of dinner lol, especially when I made my big pots of greens & cornbread lol. I can't wait for this extreme heat to go away so I can make these again lol.

Its a shame people don't know how yummy they are & I love getting people hooked on our way of cooking them. Only differences are we roast our fresh beets, turnips, & radish in the oven instead of using the canned ones. I also add creamed corn to my cornbread to make it super moist & melt butter over the top right out of the oven. I always add brown gravy mix to my roast while it's cooking❤

Thanks Tipper. That looked like a wonderful meal! And watching Matt do the dishes made my day. I love turnips and was going to tell you about the time I was sneaking a turnip out of my neighbor's garden when I was about 10 and getting caught. He was nice and said any time I wanted one to come and get it. But then you made the upside down blackberry cobbler and it brought back memories. When my hubby and I got together for our first Thanksgiving I made one from blackberries I had picked from almost at the top of Cullowee Mountain.Those blackberries were huge! They were as big as my thumb and sweet as could be. So I canned as many as I could. Needless to say he was impressed with the cobbler. That was over 36 years ago. To this day he says it was the best cobbler he's ever had. Much Love

Pop-pop always planted a patch of turnips and one of kale after the summer garden was done to have for fall and early winter. I only eat turnips raw, peeled and sliced, but not with salt. I like their clean bitter-sweet taste as they come. Mom-mom cooked potatoes and turnips in two pots. Pop-pop would mash them together on his plate and pour some pot liquor from cabbage or green beans over the mash. I am envious of your glass baking dish. The molded decorations in the glass are beautiful , and, its a good, large sized example. The pot roast looked scrumptious. I was given gift certificates this Christmas to a local farm that raises and butchers heirloom breeds of cattle, hogs and sheep. I'm definitely going to get a nice chuck roast to make pot roast when I redeem the certificates.

One of my earliest memories is going with my dad to my great grandmother’s house. We pulled some turnips and their tops. I remember how dad cut me one right there in the garden. The chilly air and the crisp sweet raw turnip. Dad would peel them and leave the stalk on them to be eaten like a turnip lollipop. Grandma Beat would make them soupy too. She would add a tad of sugar, salt and a right smart of pepper. We would eat them over biscuits. We always said Grandma Beat could cook shoe leather and we would eat it. She was the oldest of ten and had to start cooking at ten years old to help her mama. Thank you for bringing back precious memories once again. Have a good week.

Lately, every time she forgets and says "dinner," she laughs and says, "Excuse me, Mom. Supper!" Your green beans look exactly like mine! I use "middlin'" to season mine. We have to find someone in the community who kills hogs to get it, but I always have it. It's so good. Looks pretty much like what you used. That's the exact cobbler I make. Such a beautiful meal!

Tipper, I love cooked turnips too! I will tell you that my first exposure to turnips was a bit different. Maybe some of your other viewers enjoyed them this way too. When I was a small child, Daddy would wash a turnip real good and cut the top off of it. Then he would take a regular teaspoon and start to scrape the white "meat" out until the spoon was full of juicy turnip and then he would give me that bite. Then he'd scrape out a bite for himself...back and forth until the turnip was just like a little empty bowl! I thought this was grand eating! He taught my daughter the same way when she was little. She carried that "recipe" with her into her adulthood!

The first time I ate turnips was as a young man. I volunteered to help do some firewood and general cleanup for a brother & sister that lived together at the base of a mountain in a small house and they never had electricity. They were in their 80's and it was amazing how well they did without electricity. As a show of gratitude she cooked us Corned beef (venison) & cabbage with turnips along with fresh baked bread from the cookstove, then washed it down with fresh milk from the springhouse. I've always liked that meal ever since and it reminds me of them. Many times I feel us "modern" folks could sure learn a thing or two from the generation that had to live like that, and thrived. They had one cow and several chickens and a couple of ponds filled with small but delicious fish. Watching your videos bring back so many memories from peoples past. Thank you for sharing your stories with us.

Growing up, with my grandma.. this here, every single thing you made. My grandma would make on Sundays. Except, my grandpa had to have a fresh cut onion though. Thank you for making this. It took me straight back to my child hood. I could seriously smell and taste this video... I miss my grandma

My favorite way to fix turnips, I take country style pork ribs and brown them real good, then put them in a pot with water and seasonings (salt, pepper and garlic powder) and simmer them about one to one and a half hours, and if I've got some riblets I'll add them in (the bones in the riblets adds flavor). I peel the turnips and slice them like a slice of onion, add them to the pot for the last 15 or so minutes, and let them cook with the pork. I loved cornbread on the side, but dealing with blood sugar issues I've had to cut out about all carbs from my diet, but the pork and turnips is still good.

Today's meal makes my mouth water, Tipper. I'd tuck into everything but the turnips. And I'd dish my helping of cobbler into a bowl and pour some undiluted, room temperature canned milk over it. Then, after such a feast, I'd be ready for a nap.

I notice your favorite mixing bowl that you use in most of your cooking. We had one like that and used it a lot until it crashed. I bought it for my mother as a Christmas present and wrapped it with a toy marble in it, so that when she shook it like she did all of her gifts before she opened it, it made a loud rattle. She definitely couldn’t guess what that gift was before she opened it. So good to see that your speckled bowl shows up so often. Love your kitchen videos.

Growing up I remember eating fried cornbread and milk. Like eating cereal. I still do it today, some odd 60+ years later. Good eating.

I haven't had home canned beans since I was a teen. They were so good. We'd go to TN to visit Mom's relatives and they would can them. She'd bring home several cans. I was good at snapping them on the porch though. Grandma made the best Sunday dinner.

We grew turnips when I was a teenager. We would pick the tender greens and have a mess quite often and then we would eventually have turnip roots. I never liked them much cooked, but I loved to eat them raw. That looks like a really good dinner--your family is blessed to have you cook for them!

Tipper- I feel like I am back in my mothers kitchen when you cook. I didn't appreciate turnips until I got about 17 or 18 years old. But I sure love them now. And you said it right, "soupy" turnips are the best!! And we also, eat cornbread "daily". Matt washing dishes is really a blessing...

That looked like plates full of good eatings! My mother really liked turnips. I remember my aunt calling the turnip greens salad greens. That is nice that he helps you clean up the dishes and all from dinner!

This brought me back to summer supper at my grandparents circa 1980. The only thing missing was the “salad” which was always sliced fresh from the garden tomatoes, cucumbers and a giant white onion sliced in rounds with salt and pepper.

My Mom just stewed turnips , made them a little thick, with salt and plenty of black pepper. Tipper do you ever grow and eat parsnips ? Are turnips and parsnips the same thing ? My Mom cooked just like you, We hardly ever had meat , my Dad was a coal miner, we were very poor , but I didn’t know it. My friends were also. Well now you have made me hungry, I have to go eat. God bless. ❤

Thank you!! Parsnips are different they look like carrots but taste different 😀 I've never grown them. I think I tried once a long time ago but didn't have any luck 😀

Tippi: This is my first time messaging you I live in central Mississippi and your pretty green bowl that you put the stewed turnips in I have the same bowl from my Mom and we know it is many years on and a lovely memory. I think it was what cornbread was made up in to go in the iron skillet. I am a senior now and months ago I watched you and now I make my cornbread like you do. I also do crafts.all the best to you and family. R. Pleasent
