The most beloved Southern cookbook of all time: a glorious celebration of seasonal eating that has shaped generations of home cooks, from the first lady of Southern cooking (NPR). Beautifully repackaged and redesigned, with a new foreword by Toni Tipton-Martin.

A classic, showing Americans the bounty of Southern cuisine and influencing generations. --Melissa Clark, The New York Times

Indispensable . . . An inspiration to all of us who are striving to protect both biodiversity and cultural diversity by cooking real food in season and honoring our heritage through the ritual of the table. --Alice Waters, James Beard award-winning chef and founder/owner of Chez Panisse

With the publication of The Taste of Country Cooking in 1976, Edna Lewis proclaimed the food of the American South one of the world's great cuisines. From the field greens and salads of spring; pan-fried chicken and crushed peaches in summer; preserves and sweet potatoes for fall; and hearty soups and stews during the cold winter months, Miss Lewis (as she was almost universally known) extolled the vir­tues of the good food of her childhood, spent in a Virginia farming community founded by her grandfather and his friends after Emancipation.

A celebration of eating locally--decades before farm to table became common parlance--the book showcases the joys of cooking with the seasons.

The 150 accessible recipes in its pages include:
