Copycat Fisher Scones

I grew up in Puyallup, Washington, and we have the state fair in our city every year. I visited this fair for many years, and love the state fair scones—so I decided to recreate them at home. The scones are layered with raspberry jam and butter. —John Williams, Cooperstown, New York

Copycat Pronto Pups

Pronto Pups look similar to corn dogs, but the batter is made with rice flour, corn flour and cornmeal, which gives them a different texture. They've been a fixture at Minnesota and Kansas state fairs since the 1940s and most fair-goers have strong opinions about whether Pronto Pups or corn dogs are superior, but both are delicious dogs in their own right. Whether you're team corn dog or team Pronto Pup, these puppies are worth making at home!—Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Syracuse Salt Potatoes

Despite their name, salt potatoes aren't overloaded with salt! They have a thin salty crust that forms when they're boiled in super salty water. This Central New York dish originated in Syracuse, which was nicknamed "Salt City" in the 1800s because of the local salt industry. —Debby Harden, Lansing, Michigan
