Specialties
Chess pies are uniquely southern. Why are they called “chess” pies? Well, one explanation suggests that the word was originally “chest,” but when pronounced with a drawl, became “chess” and was used to describe these pies that could be stored in a pie chest rather than an icebox because their sweetness naturally preserved them. Its texture is somewhere between a custard and a cheesecake.
Buttermilk
Similar to a chess pie, but not officially named one. It is delicate and sweet.
Southern Pecan*
A classic southern favorite and my own mother’s recipe. My mother’s recipe was her mother’s recipe, and well, it just goes on.
Sweet Potato
If you like pumpkin pie, you will love sweet potato pie. It is one of the most traditional southern pies.
