I was challenged on one of the board discussions to post a traditional recipe. It's hard to know what is a true traditional American recipe. The US is made up of many many different cultures. So, since I'm African American, I though I'd post a soul food recipe. For me, this is traditional. BTW...if you don't eat pork, you can use boneless skinless chicken breast it's equally delicious and more healthy.

You will need

2 Celery StalksChopped 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil Just enough to coat bottom of pan 1 cup Water 1 Chicken Bullion Cubes Season Salt To taste 1 per person Pork Chops Black Pepper to taste 1 cup Flour 2 Scallions Chopped 1 cup Seasoned Flour to substitute Bouillon Cubes
