The culinary intersection of two Southern baking traditions
In short: Discover how to create a hybrid dessert that bridges the gap between Buttermilk and Chess pies. This video demonstrates a specific recipe designed to capture the distinct flavors of the Old South.
Combining elements of a Southern Chess Pie with an Old Fashioned Southern Buttermilk Pie, this dish offers a unique fusion. The result is a deep-dish dessert that combines the creamy profile of buttermilk with the textured elements of a traditional chess pie.
The process involves whisking sugar, cornmeal, and flour before beating in eggs and a mixture of melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. It is baked at 190ºC (375ºF) for approximately 40-45 minutes until it reaches a golden brown finish.
