My mother used this recipe on a regular basis. It is full of favor, moist, and the topping is outstanding. The recipe came from the Vicksburg Junior Auxiliary in Vicksburg, MS. Vicksburg was establish in 1819 though it was a southern town, it settle by mostly Irish people with a sprinkling of German, African, Italian, Swiss French, English, Lebanese, Scottish, and Chinese. Therefore, you can see there are many influences on the food of the south. |
