Mississippi

The Magnolia State is a Deep South state situated along the Gulf Coast between Louisiana and Alabama. When viewed on a map, Mississippi’s western border looks something like the metal edge of a spiral notebook, all squiggly lines the result of a meandering Mississippi River gently looping its way to the Gulf of Mexico. Some of the world’s most fertile soil is found in the Mississippi Delta, a rich alluvial plain between the Mississippi and Yazoo Rivers in northwest Mississippi. Historically, the delta has been a prime area for growing sugar, rice, cotton, and soybeans. Mississippi shares with Louisiana a history of Creole cooking and some French influence, particularly in the cooking of the affluent. But it is Mississippi’s flavorful, down-home cooking that takes the prize, including ribs and beans, cornbread, turnip greens, fried catfish and hushpuppies, and Mississippi mud pie.

Best Grilled Margarita Chicken... Ever!

Reviewed on May 5, 2008 by Karen
My chicken marinated 6 hrs and I could barely pick up on a lime flavor. There are others on this site with fewer ingredients that have more flavor. I won't make this again

Margarita Grilled Shrimp

Reviewed on May 5, 2008 by Karen
I say this is a 4 1/2. I did add some margarita mix and OJ to make some more liquid for the marinade. It was great on the shrimp. Thanks for sharing.

Easy Batter Fruit Cobbler

Reviewed on May 5, 2008 by wisweetp
A few tips to make a lovely cobbler....if you like a less gummy and crispier crust, use a 9x13 pan. Self-rising flour makes this extremely easy. Add a bit of vanilla with your liquid (or other complimentary flavoring) and a sprinkle of spice (your choice again). Sweeten your fruit, if needed, and bake. I haven't met anyone yet who didn't like this when prepared this way.
