With a foreword by Ree Drummond, this beautiful book has 100 easier, faster, lightened-up Southern recipes, from the blogger behind the popular Add a Pinch website.
A generation ago, home cooks may have had all day to prepare dinner, but most folks now want convenient, fast recipes that don’t rely on canned soups or other processed products. Here, fresh ingredients take center stage in slow cooker meals, casseroles and one-dish suppers, salads, soups, and desserts that have deep, satisfying flavors but are a cinch to make. Smart swaps like Greek yogurt for mayo in pimento cheese and cauliflower “rice” put a modern spin on these dishes. With 75 color photographs and lots of sidebars, this is the new Southern cooking handbook.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Blogger Stone of Add a Pinch compiles recipes that have descended to her from relatives, such as Grandmother Earlene's creamed corn and biscuits and Aunt Lulu Belle's lemon meringue pie, which has an unusual, intriguing departure from convention in its cup of sour cream. Recipes tend toward the simple, like add-and-go slow cooker pot roast; a number call for boneless skinless chicken breasts, but grandmother's Sunday roasted chicken and streamlined Southern buttermilk fried chicken are both cooked on the bone. Stone shows how a Southern cook balances traditional with modern, making her own cream of chicken soup to be deployed instead of the canned version. Vegetables include the gratifyingly regional, such as butter beans, okra, and collard greens, in approachable preparations, and a classic condiment whose time might finally have arrived: suitable-for-canning, authentic chow chow.
