FREDA'S COLESLAW
Freda Vandervort would make this for my birthday. (on the 1st of July)
Use a big grater, Grate cabbage not too fine (tho I thought of it as
fairly fine) . Add celery salt. Very little celery seed. Sometimes some
celery leaves if you have good ones.
Homemade dressing:
egg beaten
1/2 cup white vinegar and a bit of water
Add two tablespoons of sugar.
Add 1/4 tsp. salt
Little piece of soft butter
1/2 tsp dry mustard
Add 1/2 teaspoon flour Add a little half and half.
Cook until thick (I mean is this cool or what)
Put 1 tablespoon sour cream , mayo (she used Miracle whip she said but I use sour cream)and this dressing on the cabbage. Now mix and fridge.
Gosh I love Freda.
Riz Biscuits
This is Mom's classic recipe
2 1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. soda
3 tablespoon shortening
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cake yeast dissolved in 1 cup buttermilk
Sift flour and dry ingredients . Cut in shortening . Add milk and yeast. Mix as biscuits. Roll 1/4 inch (cut out). Dip in melted butter and place two circles together. Let rise 1 to 2 hour . Bake in 400 degree oven.
You may dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup lukewarm water and then use 3/4 cup buttermilk.
Yeah this is how my mother ensured none of us could replicate it by writing it out like this.
This is my favorite recipe for chicken....
Chicken Maryland Style
2 chickens cut up
salt and pepper
flour
2 eggs
bread crumbs
1/4 cup butter or mild fat
1 cup milk or cream
Clean and disjoint young chickens leaving the breasts whole. Put the necks and giblets into cold water and simmer to obtain a cup of stock for the gravy. Sprinkle each piece of chicken with salt and pepper dip in flour , beaten egg and soft crumbs and place in a greased pan. Bake in a hot oven (450) From 30 to 40 minutes basting frequently with one fourth cup of fat melted in 1/4 cup of hot cup of hot water.
When the chicken is done make a gravy from the fat left in the pan , stirring in 2 tablespoon of flour , 1 cup of milk or cream and the cup of stock made from the giblets. If you like add a few button mushrooms. Serve the chicken with the gravy poured all around it.
