Here we have a group of videos from a young lady (and Mama) who calls her type of cooking ‘hillbilly cooking’.\u00a0 After watching all those episodes of the 90+ lady who showed us how her family survived the Great Depression, I’m glad that we have someone who can follow in her footsteps with simple, inexpensive cooking.\u00a0 Nothing was wasted in Depression-era cooking, and nothing should be wasted now.<\/p>\n

Cornbread from the Hillbilly Kitchen:\u00a0 https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yA3d1tPK1jc<\/a><\/p>\n An iron skillet is what makes the crust crispy. No other pan will do that. She advises bluntly that a cast iron skillet will damage a glass-top kitchen stove, and may break the glass that covers the heating elements.\u00a0 The other recipe, for buttermilk cornbread, is at the bottom of the article. She also has a cookbook, if you want to support her efforts. Just type in Hillbilly Kitchen recipes, and a link will come up.<\/p>\n Down Home Country Fried Potatoes With Onion from the The Hillbilly Kitchen<\/p>\n Ingredients:<\/p>\n 2 cups – self rising corn meal mix<\/p>\n 1 egg<\/p>\n 1 1\/3 cups – milk<\/p>\n 1\/4 cup – butter<\/p>\n 2 tablespoons – real honey<\/p>\n Also, I\u2019m including these side dishes.<\/p>\n Down Home Country Fried Potatoes With Onions – The Hillbilly Kitchen video<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Pvz-YsrUB_Y<\/a><\/p>\n I’ve made those myself. Red potatoes or Yukon Golds are what she recommends, and I agree: the red potatoes hold together much better than russets.<\/p>\n Pinto beans are next: sort the dry beans first and then either soak them overnight or boil them according to her instructions.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7fZAK…<\/a><\/p>\n And finally, she offers the following, also letting us know that she’s not fond of buttermilk because it can be kind of sour.<\/p>\n Cornbread made with buttermilk from the Hillbilly Kitchen \u2013 heirloom recipe<\/p>\n Ingredients:<\/p>\n 1 cup – All purpose flour<\/p>\n 1 cup – Corn meal<\/p>\n 1\/4 teaspoon \u2013 Salt<\/p>\n 1 teaspoon \u2013 Baking soda<\/p>\n 2 teaspoons \u2013 Baking powder<\/p>\n 2 – Eggs<\/p>\n 1 cup – Buttermilk<\/p>\n 1\/4 cup – Real butter<\/p>\n 2 tablespoons – Real honey<\/p>\n N.B.: She adds honey to the batter to make it slightly sweeter.
