Brown Flour Potato Soup
She'd melt a lot of lard, like a pound, in her largest cast iron skillet, then dump in a couple of pounds of all-purpose flour and cook the flour until it was as brown as a baked pie crust. She'd purposely burn some of it, because she liked the burned lumps. Then she'd put the whole lot of it in a giant kettle and add water, bring it to a boil (this insured more lumps than if she'd added boiling water) and add a couple of pounds of cooked, diced potatoes and add salt and massive quantities of black pepper. That was it. The whole meal. A giant burned roux, water, potatoes, salt, and pepper. If we didn't eat it all, she would re-heat it for the next night's supper. (It was more like fried flour and potatoes the second night.) When it was hot, you could stand a spoon up in your bowl. (It would slowly slump down, but it would stand for a bit.) When it cooled, It was so thick you could LITERALLY unmold it like Jell-o. She sometimes sliced it to fit into her refrigerator dish.
Oh, yeah, also, she didn't try to make it smooth, she liked the lumps in the soup. Sometimes you couldn't tell if you had a piece of potato or a lump of soup "broth" until you bit into it.
Dad gave me many a licking for refusing to eat that stuff.
Don't get me wrong, I dearly love the woman, and she's a very good cook. It's just one of those foods she learned to cook from her mom, who raised a family of seven kids, five of whom were growing up in the depression era. This was her version of "home cooking" and "comfort food."

I had to break it to her gently-her sauerbraten. (I called it stinky yuck on a plate) Other than that, she is a fantastic cook!
My mother made tongue. It was delicious. When I was 9, my older sister asked if I knew what I was eating.
I havn't eaten it since.
baked bean casserole -- with chopped up hot dogs and american cheese melted on top. Really disgusting.
Tongue stew. If only someone had told her you are supposed to peal the tongue.
You know what, there is absolutely nothing that my mom has made that's been gross. She is a great cook. Nothing fancy, but always yummy.
Liver and onions.
To be totally honest, my mom never made anything gross. She is an awesome cook.
Creamed salmon over toast. I would cringe every time we had it-absolutely awful!
Steamed brussel sprout and brocolli, pita bread and some weird light curry chicken legs (nothing like a curry trust me.)

It was normally the side dishes, she had a thing for Spanish rice (it was spicy and contained stewed tomatoes) and beets. Yuck!
Boiled chicken and noodles with dumplings on top, everyone else liked it. I think that it was the smell of the boiling chicken that got to me.

This nasty eggplant casserole. It had eggplant slices which were slimy and tomatoes and cheese. The only good thing about it was the cracker crumb topping. Gives me the shakes just thinking about it.
