Description

The Taste of Country Cooking is a beloved Southern cookbook that shares the seasonal recipes from a childhood spent in a small farming community settled by freed slaves. Edna Lewis, known for her natural ingredients and embracing of the seasons, guides you in recreating these timeless dishes in your own kitchen.

With menus for each of the four seasons, Miss Lewis shares the ways her family prepared and enjoyed food, savoring the delights of each special time of year. From spring's fresh wild mushrooms and field greens to summer's garden-ripe vegetables and blackberry cobbler, and from fall's baked country ham and roasted sweet potatoes to winter's hearty stews and soups, this cookbook sets down marvelous dishes in loving detail.

Inside, you'll find recipes for Corn Pone and Crispy Biscuits, Sweet Potato Casserole, Pan-Braised Spareribs, Chicken with Dumplings, Rhubarb Pie, and Brandied Peaches, among others. Dishes are organized into more than 30 seasonal menus, perfect for bringing the taste of the fresh, good, and distinctly American cooking that Edna Lewis grew up with to your own kitchen.
