Cooking used to be all about making food that tasted good. But somewhere along the way, we seem to have decided the diet-of-the-week was more important.
How to Cook Like Your Grandmother is a return to recipes and techniques that are based on what tastes good, not on junk science and fad diets. You won't find the words lite, low, lean, free or skim anywhere. This is all real food, cooked the way Grandma would have done it.
People have been making and eating food as long as there have been people. And food. But somehow we've let ourselves believe that it's something only experts can do "right". That's where
Starting From Scratch comes in. I'm not saying you'll go from zero to hero just by reading it, but at least now you'll know what those self-proclaimed experts are talking about.

Are the vines broken? If not, the green tomatoes will continue to grow/ripen… But frost is coming soon!
Sounds like it's time for fried green tomatoes!! YUMMMMMMM
Green tomato chutney!!
Barb, I stood everything back up to see what happens. But it's been below 60 every day since it blew down. No new redness yet. (And I think it might be showing the first signs of blight, too.)
Kelly and Ryan, those are both recipes for when you've already eaten so many fresh, ripe tomatoes that you're looking for something else to do with them. I'm nowhere close to that yet.
