Review: Mama Dip’s Kitchen: A Feast of Memories and Recipes! - This book is more than a collection of recipes; it is a memoir of a life well lived, a life that nourished many souls with its warmth, wisdom, and generosity. Mildred Council, or Mama Dip as she is affectionately known, invites us into her kitchen and her heart, sharing stories of her childhood, her family, her restaurant, and her philosophy of cooking and living. She writes with a lyrical and poetic voice, capturing the rhythms and flavors of the rural South, where food is not just sustenance but a celebration of culture, community, and love. Mama Dip’s recipes are simple and honest, using fresh and seasonal ingredients that she grows in her garden or buys from local farmers. She teaches us how to make biscuits and cornbread, fried chicken and barbecue, collard greens and black-eyed peas, peach cobbler and sweet potato pie. She also shares tips and tricks for “dump cooking”, her intuitive method of measuring by sight and feel rather than by cups and spoons. She encourages us to experiment and adapt her recipes to our own tastes and preferences, to make them our own. But more than that, she inspires us to cook with joy and gratitude, to feed not only our bodies but our spirits. She shows us how to hold a book like a child’s hand, how to let it open our eyes to a new world of possibilities and pleasures. She shows us how to tend our earthly souls like pumpkin seeds, how to grow and harvest them for a good life. She shows us how to be Mama Dip.
Review: Good every day Southern recipes - This cookbook contains good easy everyday recipes by Mama Dip of Chapel Hill NC fame. Recipes are easy to cook and delicious to eat.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great cookbook and can't wait to get to cooking.
*by J***A on January 23, 2017*

This cookbook came today and it is filled with true southern recipes and even has chitterlings which I'd never cook. It's filled with every kind of dish you could think of with a total of 250 recipes.. Biscuits, cakes, beef, pork, turkey, fish, lamb, soups, Hot Dog Chili, Ribs, fried Chicken and even breakfast items. I'm going to enjoy cooking a lot of these. The recipes are not complicated and mainly use things you have already. I can't wait to get started with these recipes and figure out my favorites. I live close to Mama Dip's restaurant and I can say these recipes are true to our area and style of cooking. It's always nice to find recipes similar to your style of cooking and seeing recipes that help you improve on dishes you already cook.
