Product Description
In this much-anticipated follow-up to her bestselling Mama Dip's Kitchen, Mildred "Mama Dip" Council serves up an abundance of new recipes for home-style Southern cooking that is sure to please. From catfish gumbo to breakfast pizza and peach upside-down cake, Mama Dip's Family Cookbook offers recipes for more than three hundred dishes, including many Council family favorites. Also featured are party and celebration foods for family and community gatherings--a reflection of Council's belief that friends and family are essential to a rewarding life. To help novice cooks, Council includes basic information about staple ingredients, kitchen utensils, and important measurements, as well as diagrams for setting up a buffet. In a charming introductory essay, Council intertwines food-related reminiscences of her rural North Carolina upbringing with a wry recounting of her experiences since the remarkable success of her first book. With this book she passes along to new generations the practical advice and wisdom that have made her a treasure to her family and her community.

 End of the Line October 13, 2008
Why would a Wonderful Lady like Dip be forced to write another cookbook?
Her first book was a great culinary hit, at last count I had bought 14 as gifts. This cookbook just flew off the bookstore shelves! Then probably forced by a publisher to push for another seller, Dip wrote her Family Cookbook. It was a huge disappointment, giving readers recipes that could be found anywhere in the USA, and not her beloved North Carolina. Really do we need another fruited jello for desert? No thanks, Mama, I'm full!
After the 3rd time I wanted a recipe, I finally bought my own. October 5, 2008
The book is a culmination of a lifelong of hardwork and serving others. I was glad to pay homeage to Mama Council for sharing her exprience at a reasonable price. I would have loved photos of the finish product which is why there were only 4 stars.

This is a colorful look at some "down home" cooking, using local ingredients and recipes. Not a choice if you are watching cholesterol, and fat content. As interesting as a read as a cookbook

Everyone has there own style of doing things. To me, it's just another cookbook, not anything significant.
If, you're not able to cook at all. By all means, purchase Mama Dip!
 Mmmm-Mmmm good! January 12, 2008

Just can't say enough about Mama Dips cook books. If you buy one you should buy the other ( Mama Dips kitchen.)I am a misplaced southern girl, living in the mid-west, and you don't find much soul food in our parts. She has all the recipes I grew up on with my grandma's good ole southern food. Lots of the things I had stored in my memory bank, but there were so many more. I am so glad I found these two books! Believe me you will be also!
