Celebrating Southern Appalachian Food
Rich culinary traditions of southern Appalachia
In their latest cookbook, award-winning author Jim Casada and writer Tipper Pressley — both Appalachian natives preserving culture through food — engage readers with the rich culinary traditions of southern Appalachia.
Generations of “passed down” recipes offer glimpses into a culture that is defined by its food. Take a journey of pure delight through this Highland homeland with stories of celebrations, Sunday dinners and ordinary suppers. The narrative material and recipes offered share a deep love of place and a devotion to this distinctive cuisine. The book is a tempting invitation, in the vernacular of the region, to “pull up a chair and take nourishment.” Including over 200 historic recipes and a glossary of Southern Appalachian food terms, this cookbook is sure to enthrall chefs and history enthusiasts alike. Paperback, 192 pages, $23.99.
