CHOW CHOW Pennsylvania Dutch, The Pennsylvania Dutch are famous for their pickles, relishes and condiments, often served as part of the traditional ‘sweets and sours’ with a large meal Chow-Chow, in my recollection, has always been one of the favorites It is made up of a variety of vegetables that are in season near the end of the summer I remember a church in Dryville, PA, used to make batches of chow-chow to sell for a fund-raiser This is my grandmother’s recipe It is, without a doubt, the best chow-chow I have ever eaten I have only tasted one store-bought variety that came close, and it was purchased at a farmers’ market in Asheville, NC The difference is primarily in the combination and size of the vegetables In this recipe, the vegetables are cut into small pieces whereas, in most other varieties, they are processed or shredded It takes some effort, but will reap the rewards for months From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, this article is about the relish Chow-chow (chowchow, chow chow) is a Nova Scotian and American pickled relish made from a combination of vegetables Mainly green tomato, cabbage, chayote, red tomatoes, onions, carrots, beans, asparagus, cauliflower and peas are used These ingredients are pickled in a canning jar and served cold Chow-chow is regionally associated with the Southern United States, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, the Appalachian Mountains, and soul food The recipes vary greatly; some varieties are sweeter than others Chow-chow found its way to the Southern United States during the expulsion of the Acadian people from Nova Scotia and their settlement in Louisiana It is eaten by itself or as a condiment on fish cakes, mashed potatoes, biscuits and gravy, pinto beans, hot dogs, hamburgers and other foods The term chow-chow is reportedly based on the French word chou for cabbage Food historian Luis W Fernandez claims a connection with Chinese cuisine as an origin A further possible source of the name is the ingredient chayote, which is itself known as chow chow in India , The Pennsylvania Dutch are famous for their pickles, relishes and condiments, often served as part of the traditional ‘sweets and sours’ with a large meal Chow-Chow, in my recollection, has always been one of the favorites It is made up of a variety of vegetables that are in season near the end of the summer I remember a church in Dryville, PA, used to make batches of chow-chow to sell for a fund-raiser This is my grandmother’s recipe It is, without a doubt, the best chow-chow I have ever eaten I have only tasted one store-bought variety that came close, and it was purchased at a farmers’ market in Asheville, NC The difference is primarily in the combination and size of the vegetables In this recipe, the vegetables are cut into small pieces whereas, in most other varieties, they are processed or shredded It takes some effort, but will reap the rewards for months From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, this article is about the relish Chow-chow (chowchow, chow chow) is a Nova Scotian and American pickled relish made from a combination of vegetables Mainly green tomato, cabbage, chayote, red tomatoes, onions, carrots, beans, asparagus, cauliflower and peas are used These ingredients are pickled in a canning jar and served cold Chow-chow is regionally associated with the Southern United States, Pennsylvania, New Mexico, the Appalachian Mountains, and soul food The recipes vary greatly; some varieties are sweeter than others Chow-chow found its way to the Southern United States during the expulsion of the Acadian people from Nova Scotia and their settlement in Louisiana It is eaten by itself or as a condiment on fish cakes, mashed potatoes, biscuits and gravy, pinto beans, hot dogs, hamburgers and other foods The term chow-chow is reportedly based on the French word chou for cabbage Food historian Luis W Fernandez claims a connection with Chinese cuisine as an origin A further possible source of the name is the ingredient chayote, which is itself known as chow chow in India
