Home Cooking: Dishes My Mom Used to Make: Oxtail Stew
My mom used to cook oxtail stew.
My mother is passed away now. I never got her recipe. Of course, you can Google oxtail stew and find a bazillion recipes. But I’ll bet none of them will taste like the stew my mom used to make. Nevertheless, if you’ve never eaten a hearty bowl of oxtail stew and would like try, here are a few recipes.

World Cuisine : Focus on Food Contributions of the Irish
Timeline of the Irish Potato Famine 1845-1851
Some may say there's plenty of meat and potatoes when it comes to Irish food. But that was not always so. 7 years of famine? Sounds biblical, doesn't it?Timeline of the Irish Potato Famine 1845-1851
March 24th 1847: British people, led by Queen Victoria, held a National Day of Atonement, fasting and doing penance, for the Irish famine.[16] April 1847: A report, to the Central Board of Health from Killarney, showed that people were literally dropping dead in the street.

How to Make Irish Stew
Irish Stew is the kind of food that is great on a cold winters night, but is simply perfect on any occasion. The aroma combined with the flavor make it one of my favorite meals. I currently have about five, but the addition of the barley in this recipe add a lot of texture and flavor to the stew.

by JoHarrington I'll admit that I was somewhat taken aback. I'd just finished telling an American friend that her country is responsible for St Patrick popularly wearing green (traditionally he wore blue), and for linking shamrocks with the Irish.

by Allison Gray If an Irishman came to America on St. Patrick's Day, he might be a little bit shocked by the leprechaun outfits, green beer guzzlers, and yes, even the corned beef and cabbage. To be Irish in America is no rare thing-about 34.5 million people in the United States claim Irish heritage according to the 2011 U.S.

Which Clam Chowder is on Your Menu?
Do you like clam chowder? New York OR New England? Manhattan or Boston? Red OR White?
I prefer the white or New England clam chowder. But I'll eat either one that's served to me.
New York vs. New England: Who has the better clam chowder?
Quick Manhattan Clam Chowder Recipe | Allrecipes
~ https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/256170/quick-manhattan-clam-chowder/
New England Clam Chowder - Spend With Pennies
~ https://www.spendwithpennies.com/new-england-clam-chowder/
* * *
NOTES:
Sometimes people call New England clam chowder Boston clam chowder. So if you hear somebody say Boston clam chowder, it's just New England clam chowder by a different name. But I've never called it Boston chowder. Also, I have never called Manhattan clam chowder, New York chowder. Come to find out there is a Long Island clam chowder which combines "two types of clam chowder: New England and Manhattan" and results in a "creamy, tomato-based clam chowder".
Some recipes don't add corn. But I add corn to mine. I thought I was being clever. Plus I knew my kids liked corn. However, a little food history research revealed that earlier chowder recipes also added corn.
If you don't have clams, you can make it vegetarian (and then you'll really appreciate the addition of corn to the recipe).
- "Chowder is a type of soup or stew often prepared with milk or cream and thickened with broken crackers, crushed ship biscuit, or a roux. Variations of chowder can be seafood or vegetable." (Wikipedia)
- "The word chowder is a corruption of the French chaudière (“cauldron”), and chowder may have originated among Breton fishermen who brought the custom to Newfoundland, whence it spread to Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and New England." (Brittanica)
- " ... a soup is usually made with stock or broth and can have vegetables, meat or fish as ingredients and is generally not very thick. A chowder may have the same ingredients, but is more chunky, creamy and thick, much like a stew." (Soup vs Chowder)
Which clam chowder is on your menu?

Baked Butter Garlic Chicken Wings
These baked butter garlic chicken wings made the perfect game day treat last week. You don't have to wait for a game day to enjoy these. Serve these for a nice appetizer or snack at your next party or just a snack for the family. It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of garlic.
Italian Peasant Soup
We are certainly in the cold season now, and when it gets cold outside we like our soups. There is nothing better than serving your family a hearty and healthy bowl of soup. I like all kinds of soups, especially in the winter months, which happens to last a long time in here in Western New York.Cast Iron Skillet Pork Chops
It's winter here in Western New York, and there is nothing better to get you through those cold days than some good fashioned comfort food. I decided to make some cast iron skillet pork chops. This is another quick and easy meal to put on the table after a long day at work.
Glazed Lemon Almond Biscotti
Every year my cousin sends me a box of fresh lemons from his backyard lemon trees in Arizona. So, I put them to good use with these Glazed Lemon Almond Biscotti. The lemon and almond are a delicious combination of flavors for biscotti. If you're not a fan of almond flavor you can leave it out.
Poor Man's Pizza My Grandmother's Recipe
Poor Man's Pizza, another recipe passed down from my grandmother. I really don't know why my grandmother called this poor man's pizza, I never asked. I learned how to make this by watching her. Although my grandmother made it best, isn't that always the case? Tuesday, October 24, 2023
Food Blog Spotlight : A Fall Neapolitan Style Dinner | jovinacooksitalian (Reblog)
This one that is being shared as a reblog is perfect because it's for the fall season and it's about Italy, one of those places on my bucket list of "Places to Visit". Will likely never realize that dream but dreaming about it is a wonderful thing.
The post begins by giving the reader a quick history of Neopolitan cuisine. Neopolitan is a cuisine? Only ever knew it to be a flavor for ice-cream! In 3 short paragraphs, she took me from ancient Greece and Rome to modern-day Italy and the United States. Then she set forth an entire Neopolitan dinner, recipes and all, from the first course to the dessert. Of course, I skipped the courses and went straight to the dessert. But that's just me! :)
This blog post is dated 2013. Liked it then. Like it now! The image from her post is an Italian Apple cake. Isn't it gorgeous?!!

ATTN: Newbie Cooks! Best Seasonings and Cookbook for Cajun and Creole Cuisine
If you have ever been to New Orleans, Louisiana US, then you know that region is known for its Cajun and Creole cooking. There is a difference between Cajun and Creole cooking. Some say Cajun dishes are spicier.
- Per AllRecipes.com: "Cajun cooking (is) more rustic and Creole cooking (is) more refined."
- Per New Orlesn.com: "Creole food typically uses tomatoes and tomato-based sauces while traditional Cajun food does not."
But I say no matter which ... it's all good!
Even though I have stood at a stove for 40+ years, my culinary skills are still at the newbie level. Dining out at "authentic" restaurants or even ordering for delivery is usually not an option. That's why I find shortcuts to creating the taste of a particular cuisine. I am happy to recommend two brands of seasonings for those who want to prepare their own Cajun or Creole dishes. The official websites for each of these companies have a section dedicated to recipes. But you might also find this cookbook helpful: The Easy Creole and Cajun Cookbook: Modern and Classic Dishes Made Simple by Ryan Boudreaux.
(NOTE: Read free with your Kindle subscription OR ... the paperback book is less than $10 so it would be a great idea for a white elephant gift exchange. 🎅)Best Seasoning for Cajun Cooking: Slap Ya Mama!
Yes, there is a difference between these two types of cuisines, but for
my palette, there is no difference. Every dish I have ever tried whether it was Cajun or Creole, it was
delicious.
But I have only been to New Orleans once and it is likely I will never visit again. If you are like me and you don't live in New Orleans but you want to try to make your own Cajun food, use slapyamama seasonings. You can shop for their products via the Amazon store OR go directly to their official website. You can also find recipes on the website. I met the company owner through Facebook years ago. They sent me free
samples of their products to try. Even though the Original Cajun Blend is the best seller, my favorite is the Cajun seasoning for fish fry. This company was founded in 2001 and is owned by The Walker family, (TW, Mama Jen, Jack, Joe, Tana, Andi, and Ruby).

Best Seasoning for Creole Cooking: Tony Cachere
Creole refers to people who are of mixed European and African descent (A little French, a little Spanish, a little Afro-Caribbean, etc.). That specific group of people made their home in Louisiana USA. (Just ask Beyoncé Knowles, the Creole Queen.) They have their special style of cooking which is referred to as Creole cuisine.
If you have ever tasted Creole recipes and you want to make your own,
Tony Chachere is one of the best products on the market. They have been
in business since the 70s, about half a century. I discovered the Tony Chacere brand because one of my children bought a
can of the seasoning home from the local grocery store. He didn't want to use the herbs
and spices in my kitchen cabinet for his cooking, so he bought his own
flavorings.
Once I tried their Original Creole Seasoning, I was hooked! I use it to season meat, in my rice dishes, and on my veggies.
For those who may have to watch their salt intake, they have No-Salt seasonings. If you can not find their products at your local grocery store, go to Amazon OR to their official website. Tony Chachere is a real person. He is retired now but his business is still thriving.
