Down-Home Meals and Blue Ribbon Desserts
Southerner Sarah Spaugh will laugh if you call her a bona fide national Blue Ribbon cook, but that’s exactly what she is. Fifteen years ago she entered a few of her cakes and pies for competition at the local Dixie Classic Fair "as a hobby," she said. She kept entering--and winning! Since then she has accumulated a myriad of ribbons, certificates, and memorabilia representing her award-winning dishes.
Sweet Tooth showcases the gamut of recipes from appetizers and meats to Spaugh’s more famous desserts. Sprinkled amid the 8 categories are writings that highlight some of the people who helped instill a love of food and a knack for cooking. Spaugh urges: "Do the recipes your way. Add your special touch. It may be a little of this or that....Your cake may fall, but try again. Mine has many times. Bake one for a friend. Practice makes perfect. Enter your pie in the fair. We don’t always win, but we always learn. It’s a good way to make new friends, so try again."
Now try your hand at the recipes featured in this cookbook. Whether a seasoned pro or a novice cook, you’ll encounter plenty of delicious choices. Sweet Tooth takes down-home cooking and does what Southern cooks do best: add a pinch of attitude and a pound of love!
