Mama Dip shares more than 250 traditional Southern Recipes.

From the book cover:

"For nearly twenty-five years, Mildred Council-better known by her nickname, Mama Dip- has nourished thousands of hungry folks at her legendary restaurant in Chapel Hill, North Caroling. Mama Dip's Kitchen is a much-loved community institution that has gained loyal fans from all walks of life, from New York Times food writer craig Clairborne to former Tar Heel basketball player Michael Jordan. In this popular cookbook, Mama Dip offers more than 250 traditional southern recipes- from country fried chicken to pecan pie- and charming recollections about her life in food."

I found this to be a delightful book. I particularly enjoyed reading the stories of her life. The recipes are all the traditional recipes I remember growing up. If you are a southerner, this book is a bit of home.
