Tamika R. Francis, founder of Food & Folklore, moderates a conversation with Cook’s Country editor in chief Toni Tipton-Martin and executive editor Morgan Bolling about When Southern Women Cook: History, Lore, and 300 Recipes from Every Corner of the American South.
This new cookbook from America’s Test Kitchen showcases the hard work, hospitality and creativity of women who have given soul to Southern cooking from the start. Featuring more than 200 stories of women who’ve shaped the cuisine, every page amplifies their contributions, from the enslaved cooks making foundational food at Monticello to Mexican Americans accessing sweet memories with colorful conchas today.
Copies of the book will be available from our bookstore partner Frugal Books. The authors will sign and guests will enjoy a bite from the book following the conversation. The event takes place Monday, November 18 at 6:30 pm at WBUR CitySpace, 890 Commonwealth Avenue in Boston. For tickets, visit Ovationtix HERE
