{"product_id":"the-soul-of-southern-cooking-kathy-starr-9780878054152","title":"The Soul of Southern Cooking","description":"Here is a collection of representative authentic soul food dishes for those who want the real thing. Most of the recipes were learned by the author from her grandmother, Frances Fleming Hunter, a cook whose café was in the little Mississippi town of Hollandale. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Kathy Starr compiled these recipes as a tribute to her grandmother, whom she remembers amid big pots of greens and vegetables that were bubbling on the stove as she stirred up the cornbread. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Hunger,\" she says, \"was something the black family had to conquer, and it was a must that simple foods make a delicious meal. My grandma, even today, can tell you stories of how proud she felt about her sister Malindy, who would walk up out of the cotton field and find company sitting on the steps and then would take a shelf of nothing and make the best meal you ever tasted.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile this cookbook does preserve the foodways of southern African Americans of the past, the recipes are food traditions that live today in the rural South. The author has also included recipes that are traditional treatments of more recently available foods, such as lobster with cornbread stuffing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathy Starr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0878054154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780878054152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University Press of Mississippi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/1989\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 7.50w x 0.46d","brand":"Kathy Starr","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120411439359,"sku":"9780878054152","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9a9f883d-d803-41ff-a24a-21a6e435a06e.jpg?v=1687414172","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-soul-of-southern-cooking-kathy-starr-9780878054152","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
