Review Quotes:
"The book shines when it digs deep into the region's briny history and puts a spin on it, like with this paella featuring shrimp, flaky fish, littleneck clams, and Carolina Gold rice."-- "Grub Street"

Review Quotes:
"Otawka's cooking is approachable and meant to be shared--this is a book you could dive into right away, relying mostly on pantry staples. It's also one of the most beautiful books to be released this year--illustrations and hand lettering by Jessie Pickren Warner of Hew & Co. and photos by Emily Dorio make The Saltwater Table (which was shot, designed, edited, and produced by an all female team) a welcome addition to any coffee table."-- "Epicurious"

Review Quotes:
"In The Saltwater Table, Otawka presents her own colorful and bright interpretation of the coastal food culture she has studied and is inspired by...Otawka kindly educates the uninitiated that this region, in its geographical and cultural complexity, has ever more to offer, and she reminds those in the know that these traditions are to be celebrated, if not outright cherished. This is a book the South deserves."-- "Eater"

Review Quotes:
"Whitney Otawka shows us that the South has so much more to discover and so much more to taste. The Saltwater Table reveals the rewards of reverently exploring a place, its people, and its products."
-- "Sean Brock, James Beard Award-winning chef and author of Heritage"

Review Quotes:
"In this transcendent new book, a love letter to the cuisine and the culture of the South Atlantic Coast, you can smell the brine of the water and feel the sand between your toes as you drift through the delectable recipes and stories."
-- "Edward Lee, chef and author of Smoke and Pickles and Buttermilk Graffiti"

Review Quotes:
"It has been my privilege to enjoy Whitney Otawka's food several times on Cumberland Island. Her knowledge, plus her creativity and passion, makes her an excellent cook, and readers of this beautiful book can learn a lot from her."
-- "Jacques Pépin, James Beard Award-winning chef and author"

Publisher Marketing:
Step into the sun-drenched kitchens and salt-kissed breezes of the Southeastern coast with this evocative culinary journey from award-winning chef Whitney Otawka.

Inspired by her time at Greyfield Inn on Georgia's wild and storied Cumberland Island, The Saltwater Table blends regional heritage with a modern sensibility, offering 125 vibrant recipes that celebrate the flavors, rituals, and rhythms of coastal Southern life.

From Summer Tomatoes Topped with Crispy Okra and Flakey Buttermilk Biscuits with Ginger-Spiked Jam to Sweet Atlantic Shrimp Poached with Beer, Citrus, and Bay Leaves and Banana Leaf-Wrapped Snapper, Otawka's dishes are both rooted in tradition and refreshingly inventive.

With a strong emphasis on vegetables, fresh ingredients, and the joy of shared meals, this beautifully photographed, gift-ready book invites readers to create oyster roasts, Low Country boils, and other iconic gatherings in their own homes.

More than a cookbook, The Saltwater Table is a love letter to a place where history, nature, and food converge--an immersive experience that captures the soul of the Southernern coast, one plate at a time.

Otawka writes in her introduction, "Layer upon layer, century upon century, the history and the people that have called Cumberland home have sculpted a unique place. It is this wild isolated nature that over the centuries added to its lore."

The Saltwater Table transports readers to the mysterious, lush Cumberland Island, allowing us to re-create a taste of this vibrant world in our own kitchens.
