This recipe came from my Nana (mother's mother). But, the recipe is probably much older than that. I make these the way she way would have made them without the use of modern cooking tools and with organic ingredients.

I cook traditional recipes that have been passed down through multiple generations. Some recipes date back to the pre- Civil War era from the Charleston, SC area. My ancestors claim heritage from Britain, Ireland, and France. I use mostly organic ingredoents and traditional cooking tools and methods. This helps me get into my ancestors' mindset and connects me to their way of life.
