What is your local cuisine? The style of cooking indigenous to your area where you are living...?
I am blessed and fortunate enough to live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and so creole/cajun Southern style cookery is what we do here...we are 90 miles from New Orleans and a lot of our restaurant owners were trained in New Orleans...

Used to be just southern fried and cooked to death. Now we have the local Mexican flavor, not Tex-Mex. Just about everyone here grows a garden every spring. There is nothing to compare with a juicy homegrown, vine ripened tomato. We eat lots of purple hull peas, okra, potatoes, fish, watermelon, corn on the cob, squash and of course it is all cooked to death. I guess that's just southern cooking.
Dirty rice is one of my favorites.
