Publisher Description
Located adjacent to the Mississippi River, the area is rich in culture and food, Arkansas Delta is an area that everyone needs to tour. Let this book inspire you with some of the favorite flavors in the Delta.
In the late nineteenth century, this collection was developed by a rough-and-tumble collection of timber men, sharecroppers, and entrepreneurs from all over the world who embraced the traditional foodways and added their own twists. Like the music that came from the Arkansas Delta region, its food too is a mixture of influences from different areas of the country as well as the blending of historically white and black traditions combined with innovation that comes from the necessity to create delicious dishes. Today, the Arkansas Delta is the nation's largest producer of rice and adds other crops like catfish and sweet potatoes.
