Foods and Drinks You Must Try in Kentucky
Appetizers, Sides, and Condiments
1 – Benedictine Spread
We start with a delicious, refreshing spread created by caterer Jennie Carter Benedict in Louisville during the 20th century.
Since then, it’s become a signature Derby treat and is great for tea parties, luncheons, and any other daytime gathering. It’s a cream cheese-based spread made light and tangy with cucumber, green onion, and dill weed.
Many people in Kentucky also love this spread with bacon in a sandwich.
