~ The Complete Southern Cookbook ~

Yes, I have added another cookbook to my collection. The Complete Southern Cookbook by Tammy Algood. I had the honor of meeting Mrs. Algood back when she helped organize the Wine Making Contest at the Tennessee State Fair. She promotes local agriculture for the UT Extension and is a familiar face in the pages of The Tennessean and on local television. She tells you things you probably never think about like ... eggs should be stored with the large end up to center the yolk ... one pound of almonds yields five cups of sliced nuts ... don't buy lightweight melons. This cookbook states it contains "More than 800 of the Most Delicious Down-Home Recipes" and I look forwarding to giving them a try. ~ Chef Wilkinson ~
