In this paperback edition of a classic cookbook, one of the South's foremost cooking authorities assembles more than 150 down-home dishes inspired by the gracious traditions, regional cooking techniques, and mouthwatering ingredients of her Southern heritage.

Appetizers, soups, salads, meats, poultry, fish, vegetables, breads, grains, desserts—they are all here in abundance, and they all add up to beautifully orchestrated meals any cook would be proud to serve. The rich photographs, specially commissioned for this volume—and helpful sidebars, covering such subjects as how to shuck an oyster and how to roast a chicken to perfection— assure success to cooks at every level. It's a true "cook's tour" of the American South, guided by the deft hand of a master cook and entertainer.
