Some Midwestern Favorites

Caramel Corn
Popped corn coated in a molasses or brown sugar syrup, then baked until crisp and crunchy.

Chicken Pot Pie
A creamy chicken stew filled with peas, carrots, and other vegetables, baked underneath a pastry crust.

Cole Slaw
Shredded green cabbage and carrots tossed with mayonnaise and, sometimes, lemon juice.

Corn Relish
This slightly sweet preserve is made from fresh yellow corn, vinegar, and sugar and is usually embellished with red peppers, onion, and celery. It is served with grilled or roasted meat, or in sandwiches.

Potato Salad
Boiled, cut-up potatoes dressed in creamy mayonnaise accented with vinegar.

Shaker Lemon Pie
A wonderfully sour pie made from thinly sliced lemons, eggs, and sugar.

Snickerdoodles (or Snapdoodles)
Sweet, crispy cinnamon cookies, sometimes studded with oatmeal.

Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
These middle European favorites consist of blanched cabbage leaves filled with ground meat and vegetables, rolled up, then baked in a tomato or broth-based sauce.

Wild Rice Soup
No surprise here, this creamy soup is made with plenty of wild rice and uses chicken or beef stock as its base. Carrots, celery, and onion are generally added, as are mushrooms (always a favorite with wild rice). Dry sherry is often used for extra flavor.
