She's my food goddess. My mother and grandmother didn't make a move in the kitchen without her when I was growing up in the 1950s. I do not remember life without her cornbread, poppy seed dressing or popovers. Yum-o. I LOVE Helen Corbitt. She’s my food goddess.

A self-taught gourmet, Helen has always been my "hero" - the go to source regardless of the decade - the first thing I would grab if my house caught on fire! Although a native Texan, I say this without prejudice. Her recipes are are the most consistently trustworthy I have ever found and should be followed first and altered, should one wish, later. In our family, the holiday season always includes Helen's Sand Tarts for Christmas and Marinated Black-eyed Peas for New Years. Summer would not be compltete without the strawberry pie she once made for Dwight Eisenhower. I could go on forever... Helen Corbitt’s cookbook was my very first at the age of ten in 1959.

Helen Corbitt's was the most used cookbook in my mom's kitchen. Her green bean casserole is THE standard for our family. Most of us will brook no change from the original recipe! I grew up in Dallas.

This cookbook was my favorite when I was a little girl! I used to sit in our gold velvet armchair and read it for hours. (I liked the anecdotes better than the food, perhaps.) <br/><br/>Funnily enough,I don't remember this recipe. It has the same salty/sweet thing as her famous poppy seed dressing, though.
