OLD-FASHIONED CHICKEN STEW

• Add the celery and onion and cook until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle over the flour and stir, cooking a minute or so. Pour in the stock, season with salt and pepper and add the parsnips, carrots, turnip and rutabaga. Add the chicken back, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer.

HOG MAW

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place the potatoes into a large pan with enough lightly salted water to cover them. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Wash the pork stomach thoroughly in cold water. Alternate stuffing the pork stomach with potatoes, sausage, and cabbage, seasoning with a little salt and pepper, until the stomach is full. Try to make even layers, imagining how it will look when it is done and you slice it. Fold closed, and place in a shallow roasting pan. If you have any leftover stuffing ingredients, just place them in the pan around the outside.
• Roast uncovered for 40 to 50 minutes in the preheated oven, until the sausage is cooked through and the stomach is browned and crispy. When done, slice into 2 inch slices and serve piping hot. You can make gravy out of the drippings if desired, but it is good by itself as a whole meal.

OLD-FASHIONED CHICKEN AND CORN STEW

Steps:

• Pat chicken dry and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat butter and oil in a 4- to 5-quart wide heavy pot over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then lightly brown chicken in 2 batches, turning over occasionally with tongs, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer chicken as browned to a bowl using tongs.
• While chicken is browning, peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces.
• Add onion, garlic, and 1 teaspoon thyme to pot and sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes, then add flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Whisk in broth and water and bring to a boil, whisking.
• Add potatoes and corn to onion mixture, then cover and simmer over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are barely tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in chicken (along with any juices accumulated in bowl) and cream, then simmer, covered, until chicken is just cooked through and potatoes are tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Season stew with salt and pepper and sprinkle with remaining teaspoon thyme.

MAW MAW'S CRISPY SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat about 1 inch of oil in a large stock pot or dutch oven over medium high heat to 350 degrees.
• In a medium size bowl whisk the egg yolks, add in the buttermilk, and one half of the seasoning salt. Whisk to combine.
• In a large bowl sift in the flour and baking soda. Add in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, paprika, black pepper and the other half of the seasoning salt. Stir to combine.
• Rinse your chicken and pat the chicken pieces with paper towels until they are completely dry.
• Coat each piece of chicken with the flour, then dip in the egg wash, then back in the flour making sure to pat the flour somewhat firmly into each piece.
• Add each piece of chicken to the hot oil as you bread them. Breasts usually take around 11 minutes while wings, drumsticks and thighs take 6-7 minutes. Once the outer crust is dark golden brown (not dark brown) and the internal temperature is between 160-170 the chicken is done and ready to enjoy!
• Note: Do not over crowd the pan. This will reduce the oil temperature and cause for oily chicken. Cook about 4 pieces at a time and as you remove a piece, bread another one and add it in the oil. Do not bread them all and leave them all to sit out on the counter -- bread then as you are ready to fry.
