I am a big fan of southern recipes. I was born and raised in Southern Mississippi, and learned to cook from my mother and my neighbor. I am constantly searching for old time recipes and also new ones that interest me.
On most all recipe sites, I have found that “Traditional” cornbread dressing recipes are not the “Traditional” recipes from my southern home in Pearl River County, Mississippi. I have found recipes that do not have chopped boiled eggs in them, and mine does. And, I never heard of sage until stove top stuffing came out. Sage is not a common spice in my family nor the community where I was raised. I guess traditional south recipe ingredients depend on which state and community you are raised in. White corn meal is something else I never heard of till I was grown. We always used yellow.
Anyway, I just wanted to share this with you. I think it is funny that Traditional Southern recipes can be so different. I really enjoy your web site, and love the recipes. Keep up the good work.
