My Aunt Evelyn is a wonderful cook. She is very “old school” about cooking. She does everything from scratch, almost never uses a microwave oven, and has most of her recipes stored in her head.
The last time we ate dinner at her house, she served the most delicious corn fritters. I asked her for the recipe and she said that she doesn’t have one. She just mixes stuff up in the bowl “until it looks right” and then drops big spoonfuls into her cast iron frying pan with hot bacon grease. Now, that’s good country cooking! But I sure do wish she had a recipe for the corn fritters – they are delish!
