A Random Wednesday Conversation Starter

What's that one dish your mother or father used to make? You know, the one that no matter how good a cook you are, no matter how skilled in the kitchen you may be, that even though you have the actual recipe in your cookbook or recipe box, you simply cannot make to taste as good as when your mom or dad used to make it for you?

My father's spaghetti sauce, which he would cook for HOURS on the stove, and use secret ingredients to season it. I've done the slow-cook part, but haven't quite replicated the spices.

My Mom's beef turnovers. The dough, the sauce and filling, I doubt I'll ever get it right.
