My mother always made her gravey out of the bacon grease,and she also fried potatoes with bacon grease , she kept a mason jar with a lid on it on the stove just for that ...did anyone elses mother do that ? Just courious !!

my mother made the best chicken and dumplings, chicken and dressing, polk salad, turnips greens, peach cobbler. fried potatoe cakes, corn bread fritters with japalenos, and yes my mom made chocolate gravy. it is made with cocoa, ,milk, sugar and flour. you make it just like you do bacon gravy.

Truthseeker911 (view profile) Will someone please explain this chocolate gravy??? microwave a jar of Nutella and pour it on a biscuit?

Not NO, but llhe NO! I like Nutella but no way it could ever come close to being a stand in for real chocolate gravy. Satan, that was just evil!

Here's how to make the good stuff.

Melt a stick of butter in a skillet. Stir in 4 to 5 tbl.of flour and 2 tbl. cocoa to make a rue (?). Then add 3 cups of milk and stir it up good. Then add 3/4 to 1 cup of sugar. Use a whisk and stir constantly until it thickens like regular cream gravy. Eat immediately over some Mary B's biscuits right out of the oven.

Nuked Nutella! I swear!

My mom was the best cook and the food I miss the most is her home made pies with the crust that stood up without needing a pie plate to sit in.

mothers are supposed to cook?

My thoughts. My mom could heat things up, but cooking was not her forte.

to be perfectly honest i can't decide which was the best. i can't remember my momma fixing anything that wasn't absolutely delicious.

My mom made the best fried potatoes!! Perfectly crispy & brown on one side but still tender on the other!

And she was known for her homemade banana pudding. I sure miss her!

I had an angel make me Christmas cookies that reminded me of my moms.

she made Apple Squares, kind of like apple pie but made in a large cake pan ... had a sweet dough and was glazed

My mom cooked many good things: Biscuits, fried chicken, potato salad, green beans, apple pies.
