Southern Breads: Recipes, Stories, and Traditions

“Mouthwatering bread recipes . . . The authors bring heartwarming stories of Southern kitchens, told by hushpuppies, biscuits, and everything in between.” —Southern Living The warmth of the oven and the smell of fresh-baked bread conjure comforting memories of tradition and place. Aside from being a staple on every table in the South, these breads and their recipes detail the storied history of the region. Biscuits emerged from Native American and European traditions. Cornbread, with its vast variety, is a point of debate among Southerners over which recipe yields the most delicious results. The hushpuppy, developed possibly to quiet whining dogs, is a requirement for any true catfish or barbecue meal. Author Chris Holaday and top culinary instructor Marilyn Markel offer the mouthwatering history, famous recipes and heartwarming stories of Southerners in their kitchens. “Southern Breads is a book every cook, baker or wannabe will want to add to their collection—or start a collection. It not only includes recipes, but the history of breads and their sidekicks (and the how-tos)—adding up to the magic of Southern cooking.” —Cleveland Banner “In addition to classic recipes, including the no-knead Sally Lunn Bread, a brioche-like loaf with English roots, Southern Breads offers a number of irresistible ‘go-with’ recipes. Pinto beans, made luxurious by a small but essential chunk of salt pork, are the ideal complement for cornbread. Country-ham compound butter for biscuits? Yes, please.” —Indy Week
