"Miss Quad ain't playing around, and you can taste it in every bite." —Pat Neely, from his introduction
Welcome to Quad's kitchen. Cooking is a pleasure and a respite. Get ready to cook with spirit, eat with gusto, and laugh with abandon. Whether you follow her on Bravo’s Married to Medicine, are a regular watcher of Sister Circle, or have tuned into her Cooking with Miss Quad Instagram videos, you will want to add this long-anticipated cookbook to your repertoire.
Cooking is a pleasure and a respite for this star; it’s an expression of love she wants to share with all her fans. Quad learned to cook from her mother, growing up in Memphis, Tennessee, so she’s been cooking her entire life and insists that she’s made every mistake possible behind a stove. Here she encourages even complete beginners to give cooking a try with delicious, updated southern classics, such as:
Jalapeno Cheese Hushpuppies
Cajun Deviled Eggs
Peach, Fig, and Arugula Salad
Cornmeal-Dusted Catfish
Memphis Dry Rub Ribs
Basil Pesto Chicken
Quad's energy in the kitchen is contagious, as is her passion for teaching others to overcome kitchen intimidation.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this "blueprint to end your cooking woes," Webb, known for her role in Bravo's Married to Medicine, shares doable recipes inspired by her Memphis roots for soul food dishes that range from down-home to upscale. Breakfast features twists on grits, cornmeal pancakes, and bacon cheddar biscuits. Deep-fried dishes include crispy chicken sliders and panko-crusted softshell crabs with ginger garlic sauce, while a chapter on grilling showcases Memphis dry rub ribs and grilled lamb chops. Doubling as mains or sides are several salads such as peach, fig, and arugula, and there's no shortage of seafood recipes, which include pecan-crusted trout, Cajun-style blackened scallops, or cornmeal-dusted catfish. For entertaining, colorful cocktails abound (peach vodka cocktail; Glenlivet mule) along with numerous nibbles to "set the tone": hot wings, shrimp kebabs, stuffed mushrooms, and oven-baked potato chips topped with melted gorgonzola bacon cheese sauce. Webb's passion for creating relaxed but exciting food is affectionately presented in these straightforward recipes.
