My grandma’s chocolate meringue pie. Just can’t quite get it right.

I’d give anything to sit in her kitchen talking with her again.

Grandma's are the best cooks

Not a relative but I have a friend whose mom makes a really good dry pho-like dish that i wish I knew how to make. I got the recipe but it's still hard to figure out

My grandma's potato pancakes.

An old boyfriend's (Indian Telugu guy) mom packaged and sent him pickled chicken and another package of pickled shrimp. It was not sent cold, but it was professionally sealed and air-tight upon arrival. My white self thought who the heck pickles meat/fish. But oh my god, it was some of the best food I ever sunk my teeth into. It was incredibly spicy (I can handle very spicy foods) with outstanding flavor. His mom was vegetarian BTW—she cooked meat for her family—which makes her non-veg cooking even more impressive. I know, not a relative, but I still think of this from time to time over 10 years later
