Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Bourbon-sweet potato casserole

    • rittingerv on November 14, 2021

      In the index under “sweet potatoes” and “bourbon” without any reference to the the recipe name. In the Vegetables and Beans chapter.

  • Wheat germ biscuits

    • rittingerv on June 10, 2022

      This is a tasty and super-easy biscuit, but there’s no universe in which this yields 12-14 biscuits after patting out the dough to 1”. Brushed tops with cream and sprinkled with flaky salt for pretty tops.

  • Corn pone, Tennessee-style

    • RachaelN on January 25, 2024

      1. This is not classic corn pone, which is more like a corncake. 2. She lifted this recipe almost exactly (changed the wording a little, but not the ingredients) from Laurel's Kitchen (1976). 3. This was so, so, so dry. The beans need moisture and the cornbread topping, as written is in desperate need of more butter and more buttermilk. 4. This gets a 1/10 from me.

  • Meat loaf

    • fultre on January 09, 2023

      Delicious, classic meat loaf that is so easy to make. Used bread crumbs instead of saltines, and some fresh sage in lieu of dried. It seems like a lot of topping before cooking, but it’s the perfect amount once cooked. Keeper recipe.

  • Cherry-berry blondies

    • rittingerv on April 28, 2024

      The ingredients list states sour cherries and cranberries, but fails to mention the recipe calls for dried sour cherries and dried cranberries.

Publishers Text

There are many cookbooks about Southern cooking, but precious few celebrate the southern Appalachian food that has sustained mountain folk past and present. Thankfully, we now have Joan E. Aller's Cider Beans, Wild Greens, and Dandelion Jelly.

Featuring more than 150 recipes for down-home, soul-satisfying dishes, Cider Beans, Wild Greens, and Dandelion Jelly is more than just a cookbook. Complete with passages on the history, places, and people of southern Appalachia, along with lush full-color photography of the food and scenery of the southern Appalachian Mountains, Cider Beans, Wild Greens, and Dandelion Jelly serves as both a cookbook and a guided tour of the local lore, traditions, and culture of this uniquely American region.
