Book Description
Newsweek
"Pinderhughes...triumphs. More than a cookbook, this is an affectionate album of portraits from African-American kitchens."
Product Description:
The quintessential cookbook/family album by master home-chef and photographer John
Pinderhughes serves up traditional African American cooking with a dash of the nouvelle. From his grandmother Gum Gum's Crab Cakes to his own Papaya Flame, to Redfish with Pecans, Pinderhughes features his favorite recipes by his favorite cooks, who
include Verta Mae Grosvenor, author of Vibration Cooking, and Leah Chase, owner of the famous Dooky Chase restaurant, located in New Orleans and author of the Dooky Chase Cookbook.
John Pinderhughes presents his family "in spirit" with their
favorite recipes and fondest memories in this treasury of good eating. It captures the diversity of the African-American experience in its savory cooking and rich heritage of its oral tradition. There is something for everyone here, expert and beginner
alike.
