Bread pudding is a British dish. I'm guessing it made it on here because it's popular in the south and they added bourbon. Lol. :) Biscuits and gravy is extremely easy to make and SOOO good. Definitely one of my favorites along with Chicken and Dumplings. Dumplings really aren't that hard to make, so if you want to try it just go for it. Honestly, you need to try them both. ;)

Bread pudding likely came through the colonies. Many of our dishes in the south are derived from early colonial days and slave/african cuisine. The south took everything from different cultures and melded them together and throw a touch of southern specialty in them. I no longer live in the south, but I'll always be a southern boy and my kids will be raised as if they were born and raised too.

Southern comfort food was born from poor rural country families, like biscuits and gravy. You fry your bacon in a cast iron skillet, then fry your eggs in the rendered bacon fat, when you take your eggs out and still have a bunch of grease in the pan you add flour, cream/milk, salt, pepper and some of the bacon crushed up into little pieces and poor it over buttermilk biscuits.....it'll make a bishop kick out a stained glass window! Check Jolly's video on Biscuits and Gravy.

There is actually quite a bit of crossover between Southern traditions and foods with those of the more rural parts of the UK. Calling cooked pig entrails 'chitlins' comes from Cornwall, for instance. We all fled our British friends at one time or another.

The reason you are seeing so many stews that remind you of home is becasue the Scotch-irish settled in the area. for Highlanders escaping the English pogrom, after the Bonnie Prince's failed rebellion, the mountains in the south looked a lot like home.

In America, we typically have three or more different hot sauces on hand at any given time since different hot sauces have different qualities and heat levels that pair better with eggs than stews for instance. My go to hot sauces include the following: Louisiana Hot Sauce, Texas Pete, Crystals, Tabasco (Red), Tabasco (Green), Sriracha, Tapatio, Frank's Red Hot as well as habanero sauce, ground red chili powder, cayenne pepper ans chili powder.

You'll find Scots-Irish food influences all over the US. There have been many waves of immigrants over the centuries. For instance, northern Michigan has copper mines. Workers from the UK with mining experience found jobs there. They brought their recipes with them when they settled here with their families. Hand held meat pies that could be easily packed in a miners lunch pail and hearty stews for supper in cold weather are a good example.

Beignets are actually very easy to make. The box kit you are talking about should make it very easy. You guys need to have American cup measuring instruments so that's probably what went wrong. A lot of people think a teaspoon or tablespoon are actual spoons to measure with but it's not, it's a measurement that is very precise. Same with cups. Cups are volume measures that requires a specific measuring cup.

No, Pillsbury pop-open biscuits do not work just fine. They have a grocery store taste. Biscuits are similar to scones, but much lighter and flakier, when made properly. That gravy at the beginning looked a little sick. When I was a kid (in South Carolina) there was a small stand that sold boiled peanuts outside the Belk's store in the winter. My dad would bring home a bag of them, but I didn't try them till I was an adult. I was missing something great. A small store in the town I live in now would keep them boiling in a crock pot - regular and some made with hot peppers. Now, you can buy a can of them in the grocery store.

My favorite hot sauces are Crystal, Franks Red Hot and Valentina's. Spicey but will not hurt you. US foods have origins from many cultures. We have had immigrant invasions from all over the world. Then we mix the cultures and add spice. Much of our food is very flavorful. For instance...the white gravy is just bechamel sauce. Make it a bit salty and lots of pepper to make country gravy. Add spicey minced pork sausage for biscuits and gravy. Add an over easy egg and yumm. I think our biscuits are closer to Irish Soda Bread but with more butter. But try a scone. The sausage gravy should overpower any sweetness. Sausage gravy is good on just about everything. Potatoes, Toast, Noodles, corn bread, rice, use your imagination.

Large portions of the Southern United States were settled by Scottish and Irish immigrants. That's why you see so many similarities in the types of foods that we consider comfort foods. The big exception to this is the state of Louisiana which was colonized by the French. I think the influence of so much spice and hot sauce in some of the southern states comes from native tribes and immigrants from the native tribes immigrants from the Caribbean and other spice islands. I'm born and raised in Tennessee in the south. 95% of my DNA is from the uk. Of that 70% is a combination of Scottish and Irish. A lot of the foods my grandparents and prepare the family dinners or from old recipes that came To America with their family members in the 1800s. I am no longer able to eat really spicy foods. Some of my favorite comfort foods are beef stew which is just beef with potatoes carrots peas and just about what other vegetables onions and anything else you want to throw in a good southern breakfast with scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy, crispy bacon, and some sliced tomatoes, and some good Southern banana. Oh and I do love cheese grits!

I don't particularly like raisins in bread pudding, but dates and bourbon? Oh, yes! Chicken and dumplings are also not just a southern comfort food. That was a staple in our family and in our community in the upper Midwest. Oh, and we do eat savory pies. I always preferred my mother's beef pie to the more common chicken pot pie. Fruit salad with marshmallows?? NO. Never. I didn't mind fruit salad as long as it was made with fresh fruit and whipped cream. If it had canned fruit, marshmallows, and strange things like that, no.
