Together they have taken neglected traditional recipes unearthed in their years of research together on Southern food and worked out new versions that they have made their own. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTogether they share their secrets for such Southern basics as pan-fried chicken, creamy grits, and genuine Southern biscuits. Scott Peacock describes how Miss Lewis makes soup by coaxing the essence of flavor from vegetables, and he applies the same principle to his intensely flavored, scrumptious dish of Garlic Braised Shoulder Lamb Chops with Butter Beans and Tomatoes. You'll find all these treasures and more before you even get to the superb cakes (potential \"Cakewalk Winners\" all), the hand-cranked ice creams, the flaky pies, and homey custards and puddings. Lewis and Peacock include twenty-two seasonal menus, from A Spring Country Breakfast for a Late Sunday Morning and A Summer Dinner of Big Flavors to An Alabama Thanksgiving and A Hearty Dinner for a Cold Winter Night, to show you how to mix and match dishes for a true Southern table. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Interwoven throughout the book are warm memories of the people and the traditions that shaped these pure-tasting, genuinely American recipes. The result is a joyful coming together of two extraordinary cooks, sharing their gifts. And they invite you to join them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edna Lewis, Scott Peacock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0375400354\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780375400353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Knopf Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 8.24w x 1.11d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e IACP Crystal Whisk Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e James Beard Foundation Book Awards - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Pat Conroy Southern Book Prize - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/17\/2003 pg. 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2003 pg. 109\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBookPage\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2003 pg. 22\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2003 pg. 12\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBlack Issues Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2003 pg. 51","brand":"Edna Lewis","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44046067040511,"sku":"9780375400353","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_12c7aab9-0259-42b0-b558-40a89bfedc7f.jpg?v=1684982429","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-gift-of-southern-cooking-edna-lewis-9780375400353","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
