Atlantic South

The Atlantic South stretches from Delaware all the way down to southern Florida. The modern culinary history of this sub-region stretches back to 1565, when Spaniards waded ashore to establish the first European colony in America at Saint Augustine, Florida. The Spanish introduced pigs and peaches into the Americas. Centuries later, pork barbecue rules the South and peaches command the orchards of Georgia and South Carolina. Seafood is on the menu all along the Atlantic South, from the blue crab of the Chesapeake Bay to the conch fritters of Key West. Rice once dominated the Lowcountry of South Carolina and Georgia. Though the industry has long since died out, the rice-based dishes that grew up here, like Hoppin’ John, remain.

Ninety Minute Cinnamon Rolls

Reviewed on Sep. 4, 2008 by CJPOST129
Awesome recipe. This is the first no-fail yeast recipe for me. My tips for success: 1. Add 2 T. flour to filling mixture, so it doesn't run too much. 2. I added a handful of pecans to the heavily buttered pan. 3. I put a hot damp towel on top of the rolls after they came out of the oven, to steam the top about 15 min. This ensures a soft top. Next, I inverted the pan with the towel onto a tray to allow the filling to seep back into the rolls- about 2 mins. I made a simple icing using the same bowl that I made the filling in, incorporating what was left of the mixture. I glazed the tops with this cinnamony blend. Best rolls ever! The rolls were still soft the next day straight from the fridge. Thanks, Debbie.
