I just want to make a note about the "American cheese isn't real cheese" trope that's so exceedingly popular everywhere. It is. It's cheddar or sometimes colby cheese that has been stabilized with sodium citrate to prevent separation while being pasteurized. The only reason it's not considered "real" cheese is because of the FDA's definitions which are nothing more than semantics. American cheese is made with milk, with real cheese, but has had its shelf-stability increased. That's all. The name "processed cheese" is also stupid, because ALL cheese is processed. We already have a word for unprocessed cheese....it's called MILK!

@jovetj 4 ай бұрын

Yep! You're spot on! American cheese was invented to get cheese in more people's hands. Especially soldiers abroad. Before processed cheese, cheese would spoil before it could be transported any significant distance. There are some very interesting videos on YT about it. American cheese or processed cheese isn't ideal universally, but on some things it's practically essential. I don't like to make my own cheeseburgers with American cheese, but when I make my own egg McMuffins or sausage-egg-McMuffins, it has to be American-nothing else tastes right.

There was an old man that was a former Navy cook and had a little mom and pop restaurant here in my hometown. He was known as "Biscuit Bill". His biscuits were the size of your hand and his gravy could make you cry. His daughter now owns the place and even though she's seen her dad make b&g a thousand times, she will admit they are somehow just not the same. Bill was a wonderful person that never let someone go hungry and several times served me b&g when I was a kid and didn't have money. He did that for several of us poor kids. R.I.P "Biscuit Bill". 🤠

I grew up in the South, and my mother was a traditional Southern cook. I was a teenager before I knew there was such a thing as unsweetened tea. Mom's tea was so sweet that it was practically syrup. She made biscuits and cornbread from scratch, fried chicken, collard greens, blackberry cobbler from freshly picked blackberries, pecan pie from pecans straight off the tree, and countless other cakes and pies. There's a reason the Southern states have more overweight people than Northern states.

The reason ANYone is fat is due to overeating. Not what you’re eating. It comes down to controlling your appetite…

@476429 29 күн бұрын

@@pennysilvey8868 However, it is easier to overeat when consuming high-energy-density foods. As Rolls and Hill determined in the late 90s, baroreceptors in our stomach play a significant role in satiety. People tend to eat to a filling of fullness regardless of the caloric density of the food they are eating. One person eating their fill of strawberries will consume far fewer calories than another person eating their fill of biscuits and gravy. So people are more likely to consume too many calories when eating traditional Southern cuisine. Researchers found that two types of people could maintain a healthy weight on such a diet: "restrained eaters" or those who were engaged in high levels of physical activity. That means the typical Southern diet requires a high level of physical activity or the ability to exercise restraint even when a sense of fullness has not been achieved and hunger has not been satiated. Whereas those who consume more of a whole foods/plant-based diet (naturally lower in fat and sugar) do not require the same restraint. They can eat to fullness without consuming as many calories due to the lower energy density of their diet. In that way, the composition of the food does play a role through the body's satiety-sensing mechanics. Growing up as a fat Southerner led me to a master's degree with a concentration in nutrition.

Sweet tea down south is often measured by eyeballing or as a friend likes to say "Keep pouring until your ancestors say stop." Unless you're in a restaurant, in which case, it's usually 3 cups (750g) per 1 gallon (3.79 liters). Biscuits and Gravy is not just regular white gravy, it is Sausage Gravy. You cook sausage meat first (crumbled) then mix your flour, milk, salt, and pepper in and stir until thickened. My husband's Grandmother also used to make boiled eggs that you could put on top.

The way sweet tea is made involves brewing tea (much like how tea is brewed in Britain and other places), saturating the tea with sugar while at the hot temperature, and then chilling it. "Saturating" in this case means the chemistry definition, in that no more will dissolve. The amount of sugar in sweet tea wouldn't dissolve at the chilled temperature because solubility increases with temperature.

What you realize about ice in soda is that it counter balances the insane levels of sugar and carbonation. The melted ice at the bottom rehydrates you after the sugar has absorbed all the water from every cell in your body.

@jovetj 4 ай бұрын

In carbonated drinks, physics demands ice. When dissolving a solid into a liquid, like salt into water, heat is better. Hot water will dissolve more salt and hold it dissolved. For a gas dissolved in liquid, the opposite is true-cold is better. The colder the soda pop, the better it can keep the carbon dioxide dissolved and the better and fizzier it will taste. I don't put ice in milk or orange juice or whatnot.

Biscuits and gravy are an art form. I'm from Texas and my Grandmother taught me how to make them. Have to have either crumbled sausage or bacon grease in the roux if you prefer a smooth gravy (the one I grew up on, sausage was served on the side). Another tip if you love flavor and don't care about calories is using 1/2 and 1/2 instead of milk. Homemade biscuits are greatly preferred.

I want to make a point about the guy saying the ice from a restaurant is dirtier than a toilet bowl. He’s full of crap. Pun intended. The health department would shut them down. You have to have filtered water in a restaurant when you’re making ice. That’s the law. Even bagged ice is filtered. Also, on the bag, the company that distributed the ice is listed. If there’s any problems of contamination, they trace it back to the company and it is taken care of. I’ve never heard of ice contamination in America. Also, anytime the government says something is healthy, it’s not.i.e. Margarine and oleo. If they say it’s unhealthy for you it’s usually GOOD for you…eggs, and REAL butter.

My dad was born in South Carolina and grits were a staple at breakfast with eggs and bacon/ham/sausage. He added butter and a little sugar if for breakfast. If eaten later in the day, he would add cheese and jalapenos. You can add pretty much add what you want to them for sweet or savory.

When I was 8, my 3rd grade teacher, who grew up in Georgia, was flabbergasted that none of my classmates (nor I) had ever had grits, so she arranged to have some made in our school cafeteria and served up to us freshly made. I was immediately hooked and talked my mom into buying some. Unfortunately, my family didn't like it as much as I did. But I'm in my 50s now and still love making it as a breakfast treat... especially served up with a butter-fried egg on top. 😋

Before I got diabetes my wife made biscuits and gravy every Sunday. She made them from those ubiquitous "biscuits in a can", the kind you wack on the edge of your kitchen counter, separate and bake. Then, from a packet of mix, she would make the gravy, but using the skillet she first made Josh my Dean sausage in, to absorb the grease into the mixture. After the package d x was done, sh would add the sausage back in. We usually got the regular flavo, but as a treat she would get a he Sage flavor, or once every few months, to trade off, maple flavored. So good.❤

@BlueTheJLU 4 ай бұрын

I still don't understand why everyone takes the sausage out of the pan to make gravy. My (late) husband never did and it was always soooo delicious. You just cook the sausage, breaking it up as you go then once it's all browned, add flour and mix it up so it coats the sausage. Stir in milk and keep stirring to thicken and keep it from sticking. He always used the hot sausage. I miss his sausage gravy so much now.

If you're in central florida (away from the beaches) then you will find some of the most southern folks that you could meet and our food is just as southern as Louisiana, alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, and Texas. Sorry for the rant but if someone that isnt from Florida tells you that it isnt Southern, don't believe them! We have southern food, people, and hospitality!

A note on grits... My stepdad is from the south, Alabama, over a Christmas in 1995 I was layed up in a cast and we lost power for 5 days, my stepdad made Grits. I had never tried them and when I tasted them with just butter, I added brown sugar, my stepdad nearly blew his top... To me they tasted a lot like an old hot breakfast cereal called Cream of Wheat, so I put the brown sugar in thinking they were supposed to be a sweetened breakfast cereal.

I made them with thick pancake batter. You have to deep fry them, just until they are golden brown on both sides,put them on a paper plate or paper towel to soak up the excess shortening. Then put either powdered sugar or the fruit filling. You could even use your favorite jams or jelly. Eat them while they’re warm, they are delicious.

I am not sure OP knows what he is talking about. The only thing I will agree with is that for some of the foods it depends on the cook. If you want authentic foods try them in the area that most of them were invented. Ketchup is not tomato sauce it is a thicker tomato sauce/puree with a lot of spices. Blooming onions can be obtained in a lot of different places, if the grease isn't old, they are pretty good. You can find American cereal that isn't sugar coated (which started for kids).

@debwolf6074 3 ай бұрын

Not all American cereals are sweetened. I prefer unsweetened (Cheerios, Rice Krispies) or lightly sweetened (Kix). Tomato sauce is canned pureed tomatoes seasoned with salt and used as an ingredient in other recipes. Pasta sauce is thicker tomato sauce, usually thickened with canned tomato paste, seasoned with Italian seasoning (oregano, basil, garlic) added. Fruit salad is fresh fruit cut into bite size pieces with ait of thickened fruit juice as a dressing. Ambrosia salad is pineapple, mandarin orange segments, shredded coconut, and sometimes grapes or cherries in a dressing of whipped cream, mini marshmallows and sour cream. Every family in the midwest has their own version. My family called it Heavenly Hash. Ranch dressing is everywhere. My daughter’s family likes it drizzeled on pizza. Chicago style pizza has 2 versions thick, stuffed pizza from (the best is Lou Malnati’s) or thin crust, my favorite. The crust is cracker thin and crispy on the edges. Mint Oreos taste like Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies. Glad you enjoyed your visit here.
