Teenie's Chili Sauce
susan patton
This is one of our favorite Teenie recipes. Teenie, Ernesine Robinson, learned to cook from her mother, Myrtle Cooper; Addie Patton; and Mary Jane. Most of her recipes are by “heart” and she cooked to “taste”. In order to obtain her recipes, one had to follow her around, watching her add a “pinch of this” and a “sprinkle of that.”

Good on your purple hull or black eyed peas! I also combine it with mayonnaise to make a thousand island dressing.
