Regional Cuisine, USA

[itsme_timd]

Ahhh yess... I lived in Auburn, NY and I've had plenty of salt potatoes! Our local hot dog stand had 3 things on the menu - reds, whites and salt potatoes. I've tried explaining them to the folks down here but I just get funny looks, however I've made them a couple times and you don't get the funny looks then.

We also had the Amish folks come into town for the farmer's market and I used to get grape pies - they are amazing. And what about Zweigle's??? I had no idea these were regional favorites until I moved away.

I've been in the South for a long time now and I enjoy their 'delicacies' as well biscuits and gravy, fried okra, grits...

My favorite regional cuisine is Looziana/Cajun - I've been known to make a mean gumbo, jambalaya or an etouffé! Anyone up for a crawfish boil?

*EDIT* Forgot to mention... we have a sports bar here in Atlanta that 'imports' Kummelweck rolls and serves beef on weck once a week!
