Ohhhhh dear....I could never. They are my favorite bird. That is one of two taxidermy my friend the Dame has...from the 40's....and stuffed with arsenic.
And I was just wondering if it was only a thing here in PA? Everyone I talk to with exception to a few in the south and New York...doesnt eat this or heard or it.
My father used to cook sauerkraut with neckbones. That was the only way I could eat that stuff! It wasn't a New Year's thing. He just liked cooking one pot things on his days off. We all called his cooking Kansas City slop :) My late mother-in-law was originally from Mississippi. Every New Year's she'd cook head cheese, collard greens, chitlins', cornbread and blackeye peas. She said it brought good luck for the New Year. Balder Half wouldn't touch the stuff. He felt luckier if he didn't eat it. I loved it though. Well, everything except the head cheese. Urp! May all of your days be happy, Mads.
I don't blame Balder Half Duchess Deedles. I can't do head cheese or chitlins either. I try to like chitlins, but can't, isn't happening. Our meal is said to bring good luck too and wealth.
Empress, I know, right? I'd never heard of head cheese until I met my mother-in-law. I was expecting something like a cheddar, but no!! Once you know what it is, the name alone can produce dry heaves! One would think that would be the case with chitlins, all things considered. I haven't had those since the last person I'd trust to cook them died. Having cleaned them as a child, I'm not that trusting :)
I hope you had a lovely day...like maybe the Lumbersexual showed up and the Lad was all in for a fun romp. What a start tot he New Year that would've been. Warm hugs. (Batton down the hatches --- I hear some heavy weather is headed your way.
I like the way you think, but alas, we are both in Harrisburg as there was no romp dear one. Don't think the thought hasn't crossed my minx-y mind! Heavy weather? Maybe the Lad should stay here!!!!!
Happy New Year, Mistress Maddie! x

DeleteIm still waiting for the last part.
I love me a good chitlin, but no to the head cheese. That even conjures vomiting.

ReplyDeleteThat wouldn't be a bad idea...for more reasons than the weather!
DeleteHappy New Year Mistress!!!!! I myself crawled out of bed at 2pm!
