And we cook on.
Faithful Reader had a request, “how to make a thin green sauce as served with the fried okra appetizer at Edley’s Barbecue.” He or she added, “I would like to know if cream pies and puddings can be made with almond milk instead of cow’s milk. Has anyone tried it?”
REQUESTED ROAST
Ginny Gaines and Pat Crutchfield pointed us to the sought-for roast, discovered in the longtime favorite local cookbook “Dinner on the Diner.” Here’s how that tasty roast got its name: “Betty Cummings went to the grocery store, walked by the meat counter and saw five roasts individually stamped with the name ‘Betty Cummings Roast.’ She rang for the butcher to find out what was going on. He came out grinning and said that he had had so many requests for the roast she had served at a dinner party, that he had decided to name a roast after her.”
