SynopsisSome Southern cooks keep their prized family recipes under lock and key, but not Mary Martha Greene. Why? She says few things can truly be kept secret in the South and recipes, like cheese biscuits, are meant to be shared. That's why she's the "Cheese Biscuit Queen." So many stories could be written about Greene's Aunt Mimi's cheese biscuits-the countries they visited, and the lies, half-truths, cheating, and conniving of small children (not to mention grown adults) to get them. For Greene, who inherited the title of Cheese Biscuit Queen-and the recipe-from her aunt, making the biscuits and continuing to share Aunt Mimi's recipe keeps her love and legacy alive. In The Cheese Biscuit Queen Tells All, Greene, a South Carolinian and former lobbyist, pairs more than one hundred tried-and-true recipes for dishes like country ham scones, Frogmore stew dip, shrimp and corn pie, and lemon pound cake with stories from her corner of the South. The book opens with the famous cheese biscuit recipe (complete with family secrets), and the pages that follow brim with fabulous characters, antic-filled anecdotes, and recipes so good they might just call for a change in State House rules (true story). With new ideas for the consummate entertainer, helpful tips for less experienced cooks, and stories to make even the grumpiest legislator laugh, The Cheese Biscuit Queen Tells All has a place in every kitchen. Great food leads to great memories, and with Mary Martha Greene by your side, even everyday meals can become memorable occasions., ""I've been trying to decide whether to cook and then read or read and then cook, because either way is tempting. Having eaten my way through an entire recipe of cheese biscuits I can attest to the recipes. Just be careful you don't get so engrossed in the stories you let something burn." --Nathalie Dupree Mary Martha Greene's Aunt Mimi was known throughout South Carolina and beyond for her cheese biscuits. The living image of QEII, Aunt Mimi made the light and crisp biscuits for sixty years, and when she passed away, it was all Mary could do but learn the recipe and take up the mantel of Cheese Biscuit Queen. In The Cheese Biscuit Queen Tells All, Greene shares more than 100 recipes and touching and hilarious stories from her ever-so-Southern family and career in government relations. The book opens with the recipe (and family secrets) for the famous cheese biscuits and includes classic and modern dishes like Country Ham Scones, Frogmore Stew Dip, Shrimp and Corn Pie, and Lemon Pound Cake. With new ideas for the consummate entertainer, helpful tips for less experienced cooks, and stories to make even the grumpiest senator laugh, the Cheese Biscuit Queen has a place in every kitchen"--, More than 100 tried-and-true Southern recipes accompanied by antic-filled stories and time-tested tips for cooking and entertaining Some Southern cooks keep their prized family recipes under lock and key, but not Mary Martha Greene.
