THE LEE BROS. SOUTHERN COOKBOOK
Stories and Recipes for Southerners and Would-Be Southerners
Winner of two James Beard Awards in 2007, for Best American Cookbook and Cookbook of the Year, this is our culinary coming-of-age tale, narrated in recipes and amusing anecdotes, of how we learned to cook Southern without a Southern grandmother. You’ll find recipes for classics like Fried Chicken, Crab Cakes, and Red Velvet Cake, but also lesser-known preparations such as St. Cecilia Punch, Frogmore Stew, and Shrimp Burgers.
