I asked for a black persons recipe for dressing and they took the question off. I can't help it if black?

Question

peoples food taste better. Can you tell me why yahoo patrol took my question off?

Answer 1

Alexis, don't worry about, honey! You know the kitchen queen has your back.

Home-cooked stuffing

1 pan of home-cooked corn bread
1 cup chopped onion (any variety)
1 cup chopped celery
1/3 cup melted butter or margarine
2 large eggs (any variety)
pinch sage
pinch poultry seasoning
pinch rosemary
salt and pepper to taste

Saute the onions and celery in butter or olive oil. Crumble the cornbread into a large bowl. Add the onions, celery and melted butter to the cornbread. Combine. Add the sage, poultry seasoning, rosemary, salt and pepper. (Taste a bit of this mixture and add seasoning if necessary.) Beat the two large eggs with a fork, and mix into the cornbread mixture with your hands. When all ingredients are well mixed, stuff into a clean bird and bake according to bird directions. You may also bake your stuffing into a separate pan at 325 degrees Farenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until stuffing is browned on top and soft but firm in the middle.

Now, have a great time cooking "ethinc" food and don't tell anyone the kitchen queen gave you this recipe. She's got a reputation to keep among food lovers of all types. ;)

Happy home cooking,
kitchen queen

I'm sorry your question was removed. Keep in mind - we are living in a world whereby we have to continue to be conscience and mindful of the feelings of others and the proper way to approach. It's difficult sometimes because many people just don't know any better. This is why being culturally aware is so important. Many of the Yahoo community have provided you examples of what you could have done to ask your question in a more professional and appropriate way. Just so that you know, dressing is really a matter of combining TASTES. And those tastes are individual. Some people like more sage, some like more poultry season, more butter. I'm still glad you asked. Just become a little more sensitive to the various cultures and communities that live together in the world. I know it can be demanding - but it forces us all to 'care' about each other and not want to be the one to cause concern of another culture.

Answer 5

You may not have intended for the question to sound racist, but obviously, someone here at Yahoo Answers thought it was. (And why that comparatively innocent question is more offensive than a lot of the blantantly racist stuff is more than I can comprehend. )

I think the person who mentioned asking about soul food is on the right track. Maybe if you rephrased the question that way, it'd be OK.

Answer 6

Man, am I tired of hyper sensitive ethnic people running around crying boo hoo over a perfectly acceptable way to describe some one. I am glad you did not use the African American label as I find that a horrible injustice. I do not go around making anyone call me Anglo-Iro-Germo-welsho-indiano-mullegino American. White will do. I have plenty of friends that are Black and they are fine with that. They like me are plain-o AMERICANS.

Plus, I think Soul food is a farce too. Try southern, my family is from South Texas and most of are friends cooking and food styles mimic the other.

I wish I could give you are dressing recipe in time, but I cannot remember it. It does have cornbread(not sweet) celery, sage, oregano, poultry seasoning, giblets and chicken stock. The consistency comes out similar to mashed potatoes but grainier due to the corn bread.

If we make it today I will jot it down and you can use it for Christmas.

Answer 7

Just ask for a soul food style recipe. "A black person's..." can be considered offensive by some.

BTW, black doesn't mean soul food.

Answer 8

People go overboard with the race thing always seeing racism when non is intended. Don't worry about it.

However for future reference ask for "African American recipe for dressing". I don't view them as African American UNLESS they were born in Africa and have a dual citizenship - elsewise they are simply Americans.

Post your question again and ask for African American recipe for Dressing". Its more politically correct and you will get an answer.

meanwhile try this link to various soul food recipes that will have what you are looking for (hopefully)

Answer 9

Maybe because you labeled it like the way you did. Why didnt you ask it in a less offensive way? Maybe in the ethnic section, and ask about a soul food version of dressing. And i'm sure anybody who knows how to make good food can make great dressing.

Answer 10

Question things appropriately and don't sound like a racist idiot. Explain you are searching for a recipe from other cultures, etc. Explain you are seeking authentic soul food recipes and would appreciate help. If you sound intelligent, people might not take it the wrong way.
