Brief Description: Commendation Quotes: For some, the tales and recipes in this book will seem like memories. For others, they'll be discoveries. With Gullah Home Cooking the Daufuskie Way, Sallie Ann Robinson captures the cadence of the fading Gullah language and the culinary traditions of a disappearing way of life. It invites readers to make her family's recipes their own."-- New York Amsterdam News Commendation Quotes: Delicious, authentic recipes . . . [a] cultural testament to Lowcountry cooking and living."-- Atlanta Journal-Constitution Commendation Quotes: A funny, heart-warming story of growing up on Daufuskie Island and how and why the Gullah culture cooks and eats as it does. . . . With warmth and intelligence, Robinson relates her life, her philosophy, her hopes, her dreams and . . . her favorite recipes. . . . A perfect gift for the serious cook who takes pleasure in studying various cuisines and cultures."-- Macon Magazine Commendation Quotes: Sallie Ann Robinson is a fresh, soft Daufuskie sea breeze blowing through the house: lively, playful and full of laughter, yet warm and soothing. Cooking with her is easy and comfortable. . . . [Daufuskie Island] has been captured beautifully in [Robinson's] cookbook/memoir. . . . Robinson writes with the same freshness, warmth, love and forthright honesty about growing up in an almost forgotten corner of the world."--Damon Lee Fowler, Savannah Morning News Commendation Quotes: With this collection of recipes, stories, and personal reminiscences, Sallie Ann has cooked up a big pot of steaming low-country gumbo. So you better come on in her kitchen and experience the seasonings and flavors of the traditional and new Daufuskie Island offered up by a native daughter."--Vertamae Grosvenor Commendation Quotes: A fascinating cookbook. . . . Robinson knows what to do with classic soul food ingredients like pig's feet, ham hocks, chitterlings and even possum. But Southern food lovers will also find plenty of down-to-earth recipes."-- New York Times Book Review Commendation Quotes: Opens the front door of Robinson's garden and childhood and welcome[s] you right in."-- Chicago Tribune Commendation Quotes: This book honors a love of [Robinson's] childhood and her family, and that love is intertwined with food. Introducing most recipes are reminiscences of loading the wood stove, trips to the store, fishing for sheepshead, washing clothes on a washboard and cooking 'long pots' (slow-cooked meals). Beautiful photos of island life and a relaxed attitude toward cooking make for accessible additions to anyone's Southern repertoire. . . . The book [has a] unique, almost anthropological intrigue. . . . This is not a cookbook meant for nouveau palates as much as it is for the preservation of a unique, fascinating culture. Wonderful to browse through and experiment with, this is an excellent volume for anyone interested in Southern and African-American culture and food."-- Publishers Weekly Commendation Quotes: Robinson shares her memories and recipes from a culture and place outside the normal realm of everyday America and provides a provocative glimpse of a time gone by. . . . Beautiful photographs and Robinson's relaxed attitude toward cooking . . . combine for a delicious taste of the West African-influenced Gullah culture still found in this remote community."-- PW Daily for Booksellers Commendation Quotes: Robinson's stories come from another era . . . and her memoir provides a warm, touching account of a time gone by."-- Library Journal Commendation Quotes: A unique look at natives of the Sea Islands of South Carolina . . . through delicious recipes and stories."-- Black Issues Book Review Commendation Quotes: Pass[es] on not only the distinctive cuisine of the island people but their story as well. . . .
