Momma Cora's Seafood Sauce

Eased on out of the kitchen to my big ole chair after a wonderful day of cooking in the kitchen. I must say the Seafood Sauce turned out to be a lovely addition to my condiments in the frigidaire.
  Growing up in florida, running thru the orange groves, pickin oranges and spitting seeds was just another day to us. When i was very young we would always go fishing at the coast and take our pan and a few oranges for supplies. Cooking on the beach was either done with the fish wrapped in foil with a few orange slices for flavor, or sometimes we would fry fish and have orange infused hushpuppies on the side.
  We did do a lot of camping and back when it was legal to harvest clams we would boil up a big pot and eat them clams with a nice orange and butter dipping sauce. Long gone are the days of fires on the beach or throwing orange peels into the fire to repel the mosquitos. The memories are still kept alive by the canning process and sharing of traditional recipes with all natural products.
  I do miss the days of Elvis stopping by Momma Cora's house when he was in town, you see he dearly loved her Marmalade on his peanut butter sandwiches. In keeping a tradition alive here's a photo of him visiting up here in North Carolina.
   Well until tomorrow..Remember..What " Can " you do..
