Bostin' Fittle...Black Country Food and Recipes
Like all regions the Black Country had some foods that were traditional fare for the region. From pigs trotters or Groaty Dick the recipes, though generally the same, could vary from family to family adding a "personal twist" often dependent on the income.
If you have a recipe for a meal that was eaten in your family why not post it here so others can compare and share?
Of course this section isn't just about recipes. If you have any memories of what foods were eaten in your household or locally add them here and you never know someone may well have a recipe for you to try it out.
What about the foods that the region may have eaten 100 or 200 years ago? Were they the same or has time altered the recipes that were used? If you have any info add it here.

Black Country Spake : A look at the Black country accent
The Black Country Region has a very distinguishable accent that is said to be different from town or village. Some say that other accents such as Austrailian are a branch off it and that Shakespearian twang has elements of it too. In this section we look into things ourselves.
