4.0 out of 5 stars Cookbook has same flare as novels, 27 Jul 1999
By A Customer
If you enjoyed reading(or watching) Fannie Flagg's "Fired Green Tomatoes", you'll love the cookbook as well. She shares her love for food and the past by giving us recipes from her Aunt's railroad-side restaurant(the original Whistle Stop Cafe), as well as lines from the book FGT. I've tried the BBQ chicken, mashed potatoes, glazed carrots, and egg custard pie all to family satisfaction. So whether you like Southern cooking or Fannie Flagg, get this book. You won't regret it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Original Whistle Stop Cafe Cookbook, 2 Oct 2009
By L. Reynolds "LuciLastic" (West Midlands, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This book is a novelty rather than an actual cookbook. Being a long-time fan of Fannie Flagg, and with the novel Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe being one of my all time favourites, I bought this out of dedication than need.
Rather than being a simple reciple book, Flagg has scattered it with quotations from the original book, and written it in the same gossipy tone. It's quite a read, and is almost like opening a menu from the Whistle Stop Cafe.

Some of the recipes sound delicious - Barbecue Chicken, Lemon Ice Box Pie, Red Velvet Cake... so it wasn't long before I decided to get busy in the kitchen.
I decided to make the Barbecue sauce, and beaten biscuits. Having spent a lot of time in Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia, I often crave after those wonderfully fluffy, warm savoury scone-type-breads known as biscuits that are served everywhere in the states. However, I was a bit disappointed. After following the recipe to the letter, the biscuits turned out somewhere between a cobbler and a pastry.
The barbecue sauce recipe called for a thickly sliced lemon to be boiled up with the rest of the sauce, and removed at the end of cooking. This was unnecessary. The ingredients also asked for cider vinegar, so the result was an extremely sharp and very watery sauce which didn't taste anything like or look like barbecue. However, adding a big spoonful of molasses brought it back to the flavour, and using a little cornflour thickened it to the desired consistency.

So, I maintain that this is a novelty book and not an actual cookbook to be taken seriously!
