the question isn't what is southern food: it's what ISN'T southern food? |

Date: April 25th, 2025 3:38 PM Author: Hateful lettuce cruise ship idk the NE has their own thing going on with seafood, the midwest likes their casseroles and things from a can, the southwest has my favorite stuff with chili peppers/corn/beans and california puts avocado in everything wow
also americans eat a lot of salad with fruits and nuts and things in them that you dont see in most parts of the world.
I would say there is an american cuisine that includes all this stuff thats more than just burgers and hot dogs. And I agree that the south incorporates it into their food |

Date: April 25th, 2025 3:05 PM Author: Shimmering native affirmative action Beef BBQ is from Texas and other parts of the Midwest. Pulled pork is the true southern Q. all good food in the south is from black cooking traditions. Southern food is delicious because it is full of lard and/or bacon fat. Southern fried chicken is an example. I love belly clams and other fried foods but the southern thing is to fry them in rendered animal products instead of corn/soybean oil.

soul food largely isn't black people food, it's southern food that escaped the south because black people moved out. even shit like chitlins was eaten by poor southern white proles back in the day |
|
Date: April 25th, 2025 3:19 PM Author: cracking shivering pistol not quite right, all good food in the south descends from cooking traditions that ended up incorporating elements from black cooking because the blacks were the ones in the kitchens, but most of what we think of as soul food or whatever isn't actually black, some is but not most (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5715724&forum_id=2#48880374) |

Date: April 25th, 2025 4:09 PM Author: Shimmering native affirmative action Southern food was served to whites but it was always cooked and almost always served by blacks unless you were poor white trash.
The Chesapeake region is the oldest part of the south and it has great southern seafood items like softshell crab, crabcakes, oysters, shad roe, striped bass, and terrapin stew.
Terrapin and oysters were served on all the finest menus from NYC south, and Maryland was the talk of the culinary world in the 1800s. Fried chicken used to be called chicken Maryland style.
New Orleans was a French territory with French cultural influences developing unique flavors.
The culture of the deep south developed after 1800 and those foods are the foods of traditional black cuisine. Hush puppies, fried chicken, BBQ. Maybe pimento cheese is a white thing, it is made with mayo.

|
Date: April 25th, 2025 6:12 PM Author: cracking shivering pistol hushpuppies are literally just cornbread and blacks didn't have corn until they got here, absolutely no reason to think they have anything to do with that, hoecakes and all sorts of other things predate them
bbq they do deserve some credit for but certainly not all |
|
Date: April 26th, 2025 5:22 PM Author: Shimmering native affirmative action I didn't say African. People can talk shit about black culture, but the southern cooking is delicious and the blacks were the southern cooks. If seed oils are not used, the food might even be somewhat healthy.
I guess Hush puppies are actually native American, but southern cooks made them their own

Date: April 26th, 2025 5:50 PM Author: cracking shivering pistol yes, the blacks were the cooks, but they were taught what to cook by white people, the original introduction of french cuisine to America came through rich slave owners sending off their best black chef to get trained (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5715724&forum_id=2#48883525) |
