My grandmother made these also and she added a lot of pepper to the dumplings, but they were so good. My first time making them I ended up with a big pot of turnip greens, and the dumplings fell apart. And it wasn't funny either
I never had this.
They are so good
Looks good will be making it for my hubby. Wish me luck I had never even heard of greens and corn bread dumplings❤
My mother-in-law taught me how to make this, but with collard greens. I still love them. Thanks for the memories.
I would love to see your face. This seems like a wonderful southern dish. Are you from NC?
I know you're right mam because I'm from SC. I do understand what you're saying!! My grandma was used my grandpa taking care of her to. And her children.

My mom called the rape green Pepper Grass.
@@dianekimble9759 ,I never had these but I bet they’re good.I’ve heard of poke salad and rape but I was born and raised in Macon , Georgia.
My late Aunt used to grow turnip greens and would make those cornmeal dumplings. I love them. I made some the other week. Delish! I am a green lover.
Yummy 🥰🙏🏾
Looking good
OMG Mrs. Mae Mae, my Mother use to cook this dish when I was a kid. She passed away when I was 13 years old. I use to crave these and didn't know how to make them until about maybe 6 or7 yrs. ago from my sister's God Mother. And when I cooked them and started to eat I cried lol. It brought back so many memories of my mother. I did know that it was a Southern thing, I just thought it was something she did in the family. Thanks you for sharing.
Thanks for sharing such a precious memories of your childhood 🥰 I appreciate you watching and God bless 😇🥰🙏🏾

The greens are so pretty. I have been freezing some turnip greens to have for thanksgiving. I could eat the whole pot by myself, don’t need nothing else just the greens. So happy for this video. Lisa

I love turnips and mustards mixed. I am growing them in a container and I'm waiting for Thanksgiving to pick them.
I love all greens, but my stomach gets tore up the next day. Any solutions?
Hi, beautiful lady 🤗
My grandfather made these, when I was a little girl. What a memory.
Thank you for sharing 🥰
My mom loves your channel 💕❤️💕
@@selftherapy2014 Growing in a container? Instructions please!!!
Mae Mae I cant thank you enough for making this. Our women matriarchs in my family that made this meal has passed on and took this recipe with them. So again than you. They use to make this a one pot meal by adding neck bones or turkey and we are this for days. My first time eating this blew my mind. I cant wait to try this on my own 💜💜💜
My mother-in-law made this for me when me and my husband came to live with them. I had never heard of green dumplings and when I tell you that it was good it was beyond delicious. She always start with very young greens that was so tender. Watching this video bring back some beautiful memories of my mother-in-law. She was one of the best cook that I have ever known besides my very own mother. They was the greatest women that I have ever known. This is a very beautiful video to watch and it's educationally to watch. Thanks so much for this information.
Awww thanks so much for sharing your endearing memories of your mother and mother-in-law they sounds like two wholesome wonderful women’s 😊thanks for watching 😇🥰🙏🏾

Cornbread goes so well with greens, so making them with corn meal dumplings makes perfect sense. I know this dish will be delicious.

@@MaeMaesHappyTable Thanks for remembering me of my grandmother's cornbread dumplings. She was legally blind. I also can remember her cake icings in which she used various koolaid flavors for them. As you mentioned things are not the same which includes koolaid. I truly love and enjoy both you and your husband's cooking Tutorials. Thanks!!!!
Mae Mae, your delicious and healthy cooking videos will leave "Footprints on the Sands of Time" for the younger generations yet to come.
Thank you kindly for sharing.
I love collard and turnip greens with cornmeal dumplins.
Summer Yellow bottleneck squash Casserole (without cheese) and fried squash are mouth-watering. I am getting ready to plant my vegetable garden soon.
God bless you for sharing your talents.
Mae Mae, you have my stomach growling, I can't wait to try this recipe. I remember when I was a little girl somebody in my family made these. Thank you for your recipe ❤
😂you’re so sweet I was a young girl back in the 60 when my mom would cook them and that’s when I started loving them lol thanks for watching 🥰🙏🏾
Oh my goodness! This looked so good! Never had dumplings in greens but will be trying this for sure. Thanks Ms Mae Mae and Mr Tuck.

🤣🤣That phone call took me out...but my beloved grandmother made this dish with mustard greens.😋
Lord have mercy! This has brought back memories as a child. My mother used to make this and it was soooo good! Those greens looks delicious. Thank you for taking me back💖💖❤❤😊😊😊😎😎
Yes me to I miss those days
I had these greens and corneal dumping as a child. My grandmother was North Carolina and could cook just like you. I miss her cooking. Thank you for bringing back memories 🙏🏿 ❤
Love the video my grandmother used to fixed this every week. I miss her. Your voice bring back the 60s.
I was so excited watching this video. I was raised on this, being a country girl from Tennessee. Lord I never thought I'd see somebody cooking cornbread dumplings on CZcams of all places. My heart lit up like a Christmas tree. My god sister and I are the only ones that carry on this tradition with fresh spring onions on the table and homemade pepper sauce of course...
I truly enjoy your channel. Love what you do and you're doing GREAT!!!
Be Blessed and remain Encouraged.
Thank you so much. My Mom made this for me . That was my request when I came home - Durham, N.C. I have not been successful in making these. I am gonna try it again. I got to find other seasons- as I do not do pork. I appreciate you for this video. ❤️
One of the best dishes ever turnips and dumplings… loved this video
Mae Mae: You capture my heart!
You are so original and down to earth, just like my Grandma taught me.

You’re remaining me of my mother 😇 ….she would put flour dumplings in fresh English peas,that’s so good. Thanks for watching 😇🥰🙏🏾
I like
@@MaeMaesHappyTable Mae Mae it is so delightful watching and listening to you while you see sharing your happy childhood onto adulthood. Bless you with GOD's speed
Very clear description and demonstration. I WILL be making these Dodgers - I took notes all the way through the video. I've never had these -- to me seems a healthier version of fried hush puppies. Thank you Mae Mae!
😊 never through of that 🤔 thanks for watching 🥰🙏🏾😇
Watching from North Carolina, can’t wait to cook my greens and corn meal dumplings. Thank you for the memories Ms. Mae Mae 🙏❤️🥰😘🙏
Thank you so much for this recipe my favorite part of eating turnip greens is the pot liquor over cornbread and to know that I can cook the dumplings in with the greens is absolutely wonderful!!!!
Crackling bread with turnip greens and pot liquor😊
Thank you for your recipes. I'm a retired chef, but do to a disability, I don't like to be in public and around people much. I just like hearing your stories! listening to you is like hanging out with my neighbor! Thank you so much.
This is my favorite way to eat mustard & turnip greens. I also like the pot liquor in a bowl with this in it.
Yes, yes, this is good eating. Those greens look so tender. Now I want some. You r a great cook Ms. Mae Mae. I love the pot licker and dumplins by itself too. Such a delicious meal.
@@regalstylesbymtg2317 yes ma'am me too. I went to a salad and collard field with my Mom last week to pick so I can freeze some for the Winter and honey when I finished cooking them I could not help myself. I had to get me some pot liquor and greens and throwed down.lol
@@karenhunter1890 Guess what? Had to get me some today, u talking bout good.
@@regalstylesbymtg2317 Lol!!! I know that's right. Happy eating!
I remember pepper grass is what my grandma Bea used to call it. She would get it from outside and she would add it to her greens. Your video brings back sweet memories. I'm 57 now but I remember
I haven’t had the good corn meal that I get from Georgia since I’ve not been south due to COVID-19. My grandma and mom loved to make corn dumpling with mustards and turnips and early spring and fall we’d plant mustards and turnips and that would fill me up. I love chicken and dumplings as well.I never had collards with dumplings or cabbages. Thank you I will try this again unfortunately I live in Connecticut and this time year I didn’t plant any here so I will have to buy some. I miss field peas and snaps and good cornbread and raw onions. I don’t eat pork but I use beef bacon and turkey bacon and you can’t tell the difference.
Audrey you can get anything online. Look for the name of the cornmeal you want and I'm sure you can find it.
You can also find field peas and snap frozen in the stores
I haven't seen anyone make this like my Mama ( Grandma). Lord, I am heading to my garden and prepare me a pot of this. Thank you so very much. Much Respect 🙇♀️
Ooh boy..cornbread dumplings yes..now you speaking my language..yes Lawd had PLENTY of this I love em with Kale too
.. Yes picked plenty poke..uh huh wit bacon and onions..in Kentucky you could buy it in a can.
Wanted to know if you ever heard of SPOON BREAD?
Your greens look delicious,I love greens,but I never had corn bread dumplings,next time I cook greens, I will be making the corn bread dumplings, thanks Mae,Mae and Tuck, I love you 💕 guys
Hey, Pearlie after l watched the video, I realized that I kept saying cornbread dumpling 😲 I’m sorry 😊 but they’re “ cornmeal dumpling.. aka dodgers “ but they’re so good 😊 thanks for watching 😇🥰🙏🏾
Thanks for the correction,you are a wonderful person Mae,Mae,be blessed 😇
I lost my mom back in 2016. Fortunately, I was right there when she would make her turnips and corn meal dumplings. It was one of my favorites. I will now from time to time make them for myself. I need to write down the recipe to pass on because there are not many people still doing this! Thank you for making this video! It takes me back!❤
I can remember sitting in my grandmother's kitchen watching her cook the way that you do. thank you for sharing.
I only remember my great grandmothers sister making the corn dodgers. I've only eat them one time because nobody else did. I was a small child but I still remember eating them that day and they are delishious. Thank you so much for sharing these recipes bc it brings back so many memories.
I miss my grandparents so much. I had a good family back in the day and all the raising pigs, chickens,and an old cow named Elsey, The milk cow.
I'm from a very small farm town in Alabama and haven't seen these since the 70s and have yet to meet anyone else who's ever heard of them! ..THANKUUUU!😊..
Mar Mae .. I'm pregnant and honey! Your cooking makes me so hungry. I'm Bought my greens last week and cleaned them already so mine are already frozen and ready to cook for Thanksgiving. Honey you be cooking up a storm!! You remind me of my momma's cooking. She was born in 1953. She is a great cook as well.
This recipe really took me back. I have not eaten turnips with dodgers in them since I left home and that had been a long long time. I really enjoy watching your channel/show. When my children were growing up and as I set the table they’d rush to sit down. And I’d say “mommy can’t cook but she puts a lot of love in it” they seemed to have enjoyed whatever I made-I hope they did.
I’d mentioned to you before that I never really learned to cook (aren’t all Southern Girls suppose to be good cooks” LOL) anyway I had four older sisters and three older brothers ... they were great cooks and I did learn something from them after I was older-much older lol
As the saying goes, “you’re never too old to learn”
LOVE YOU, Mae Mae
This brings back sweet memories of my mother and grandmother cooking the dumplings with turnips. ❤
That's some good food there, love green's of any kind with cornmeal dumplings
My grandmother used to make it she makes turnip greens and dumplings when I was a little girl thank you for sharing
Good morning Mae mae,Hope all is well with ya'll. Thanks for sharing, those greens & Dodgers looks delicious. You brought back a lot of memories from my childhood. I remember the hog killing time too,everyone would come around family and friends from the neighborhood would come to help. We would always get that bacon,bologna & a lot more stuff .My sister and I really loved that old fashioned hoop cheese. I would just love to sit down and talk with you about the old days. Ya'll be blessed and enjoy the rest of ya'lls day, &have a great weekend. I will check out Brittany 's channel too.Love from Lula mae&Family. 💕💕💕💕💕💟💕💕💕💕💕
Hey, my dear sister in Christ. It always blesses my spirit when I get a comment like your.. someone who can relate when I share memories that can take your mind and soul back to the old landmark days. In times like these it just make me think about, how good our God is😇🙏🏾 have a blessed weekend 😍😇🥰🙏🏾
thank you for this wonderful recipe i am 77yrs old and I remember my grand mother making this. I also grow my turnip and muster greens we call our dumpling😍 cornbread dumpling
Mrs Mae Mae, my Granny use to make this for us and I have been looking for this recipe for years!!!!! Thank you for posting this.
I have been waiting to make these dodgers for about 40 years I am now 80 years old Thank you so much May God bless you real good
Oh wow! I hope my video will be a help thanks for watching 🥰🙏🏾
I love the simplicity of this channel and the various things you cook! You keep my memory of mom and my cousins who could "burn" alive in my spirit. Thank's so very much! God speed!!
Ms.Mae Mae Im going to go get me some turnip greens and fat back and make me some of these on my next day off!!!! I been wanting these dumplings for a long long long time! Thank you sooo much for sharing your recipe!!!!! My mouth is watering wanting to eat this food.😍😋😍😋😍😋😍😋😍😋😍😋😍😋😍😋😍
Mrs. Mae Mae, thank you for your recipe. It looks so delicious. I love turnip and mustard greens. I never had the cornbread dumplings in my greens. My grandma and mother would make the pone corn bread. I love the stories, they so remind me of my granddad, and grandma when they had a garden. I miss those days. Food was so much better back then. I love your stories and your channel. ❤️❤️
I have never had dodgers in my greens but now I know how to make the. We had a store that sold the salt pork and that thick bologna. My kin would kill hogs like that. Everybody pitched in to help.They had chickens and a smokehouse too. We just loved to go to their house. The food was so good. One thing I did not like to do. My cousin would lay on the ground, reach in and get me a sweet potato to roast in the fireplace.I was scared of the potato hole.I loved to draw water from the well .These greens look so good. Thank you Mae Mae and Tuck.
Those turnips are so pretty. I love the brown eggs especially in my cakes and pies. My uncle's hens keep the family supplied with eggs and im so thankful for them because they are expensive.
I have precious memories of my aunt Bessie making this delicious meal up south here in Brooklyn, NY. Thanks for sharing.
I had a friend whose great aunt would make ham and corn dumplings. They were probably like those but just using the broth after boiling the ham. They were so very good. I grew up with ham and regular dumplings.
My grandmother made these!!!!!!
🥰🙏🏾
🥰🙏🏾
This looks soooooooooooooo good!!! Mrs. Mae you have my mouth just watering.
My Grandmother used to make these cornmeal dumplings and put them in her Turnip Greens. Thanks for sharing. It take your meal to the next level.
I have had these cornbread dodgers before. I must try these. Thanks Mrs. Mae Mae for this recipie.
You’re so welcome. Tuck got a few turnip plants growing in a tub that are just about big enough for harvesting 😊 and that’s what I’m going to do with them, before it get to hot on them and the heat makes them tough and bitter. I will show them to you guys when I do my update coming next 😄 thanks for watching 😍🥰🙏🏾
Hello Mrs. Mae Mae, so glad I came across your channel and I’m really enjoying watching you cook, just remind me of growing up and being in the kitchen with my grandmother and her friends. I love cooking but after my son’s left home, I don’t cook like that. Now that I’m retired I’m back in the kitchen cooking and having a great time. I didn’t know that people still cooked cornbread dumplings in greens anymore and yours looks so delicious. I still cook them too, never knew they were called dodgers😃. Thanks for sharing your Old School Cooking with us❤️❤️❤️
Yum yum yum!!!!!
Oh my, Ms Mae Mae! This is exactly what I remember from that pot cooking on Grandmas stove! Saving this recipe to my favorites. Yum 😋
Oh yes, those greens 🥬 with the dumplings are the best . GOD bless you and your husband for showing this video. Love ❤️ you
I'm sure going to try this. I love Cornbread with my turnip greens so this sure looks good.
I sure love hearing about how you grew up and how y'all lived.
I just love you and your husband. You both are so humble and kind.
Thank you so much for this recipe. My mother always cooked mustard greens with corn dodgers. Unfortunately, she passed away before I really payed attention to how she cooked them and my attempts were never very good . Hers never had onions , but the flat little dumplings are wonderful. Good luck with your channel.
Ms Mae Mae I will definitely try this recipe, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your turnip recipe. My family grew up on turnips with (dumplings). We never added water to our turnips or cabbage.
Love your family stories.
Our Turnips and cabbage make their own broth/water when cooked slowly. Makes more than enough broth for dumplings.
Never needed additional water. We fry/cook) our meats in pot which makes the oil. Then add salt n pepper. We use cornmeal, green opinions and turnip broth to make dumplings.
You recipe sounds very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
This is old time cooking! My grandmom who passed away more than 50years ago used to make this. Thank you so much for the reminder and the recipe!
Mrs. Make I love 💕 you for teaching old and young people. My Mom and grandma has gone on.
Turnips and corn dodgers are delicious. I grew up on this. I have been wanting some fresh turnips and corn dodgers. Turnips are less bitter when the frost hits them.
That’s the very reason I stay away from turnip greens, because of the bitterness.
Omg love this video. We always had this dish when I was growing up” we grew all our veg and we also ate wild poke salad along with rappe, . Jewel stores sometimes has it, thank you” you are a gem🙏
Mrs Mae Mae This looks so delicious I have to make this. I will let you know how it came out. Thank you for all your GREAT recipes.
My mother used to cook mustard greens with cornmeal dumplings without onions. She has it done them in years and years but I tried once. When I do my grocery shopping I will get greens and try your recipe.
Makes my mouth water! Love this my uncle also made the corn meal dumplings in pinto beans as well as stewed potatoes! God Bless you 👍🙏🦋
Wow! Finally 🙌 I remember my grandma cooked this never ate it but craving it as a adult. Thanks you for sharing. I'm 57 and ask friends if they remember most don't lol.
I'VE NEVER HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE SO I AM WILLING TO COOK THIS GOOD RECIPE I LOVE❤ WHAT I SEE THANK MAMA FOR SHARING YOUR BEAUTIFUL COOKING😋😋😋
Yummy just like my Granny used to make❤
🥰🙏🏾
@@MaeMaesHappyTable 🙏💜
Thank you for sharing this video, remembering Mom's and grandma cooking ❤
Thanks for the nice comment and watching, I appreciate it 🥰🙏🏾
OMG, my great Aunt use to cook this. I have been wanting this recipe. Thank You so Much ;)
Yess!! My mom makes this , every time I explain it to someone they don’t know what I’m talking about. Nice to know it’s other people who eat it the same way.
Love how you remember the old days of how things was done.
Yummmmm!!! It has been to long since I had corn dodgers! My mama made them, oh so good. Thank you for taking me back in time to good eating!!! You are so close to me, i work in Level Plains.
Wow! My mom and grandma used to make these when I was a kid. Yep, turnip greens and corn meal dumplings. Fond memories indeed! Thank you for a recipe I can follow❣
My husband family used to make this and I never learned. I will be making these dumplings this weekend. I love you for this.
My mother and grandmother made them. For us they were cornbread dumplings. Thank you 😊
😍🥰🙏🏾TFW
I was thinking about this recently and didn't know how to make the dumplings like my great aunt use to. She was my Big Momma's sister. Thank you for sharing.
I really enjoy listening to an older person talking about how things used to be. It almost made me tear up to listen to Mrs. Mae, because she reminded me of my parents. My mother used to make these. She actually called them "meal dumplings" Back in the day when people were poor, they did what they could to stretch a meal. Especially if they had a large family. And listening to Mrs Mae reminded me that we should talk to and cherish our elderly people. Pick their brain and learn from their knowledge and experience. Don't let their wisdom go to the grave with them. That would be really sad. Thank you Mrs. Mae for this video. I'm sure the greens tasted great.
Mrs Mae Mae you have such a warm sweet and wonderful spirit.. you make me miss my moms so much she passed in 2019 and she was sweet and talked like you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful, I wish I had a nice little garden to grow greens and cabbages and what not. Your pot sure looked good too.
My grandfather used to make this and as kids we loved it!! I'm making it!!
I loved these when i was growing up--My grandmother fixed this when i was growing up. I definately need the recipie.
Please do continue to share these wonderful recipes that my Mom use to make..I do plan on trying to make this old time favorite 🍽️
Those are the most beautiful home grown greens I have ever seen! My father was an avid Gardner and I don't remember his greens being so bright. my mother never made dumplings in her greens. I will try next time I prepare greens. Bye!
So happy I came across this video. I remember having these greens and dumplings when I was a young girl. They look delish!! 😋 I will definitely be making them soon. Thank you lovely lady, for your recipe and the memories. 😉
This was a great video. I loved how you prepared the food but your stories about killing hogs and all the anecdotes you passed along to us were great. Thank you.
I LOVE the stories that go with this recipe...I wish I had listened more closely when my grandmother was alive....I vaguely remember her coal camp stories but not in great detail
