Summary

My name is Christy Jordan and I like to feed people.

I come from a long line of Southern cooks who taught me home cooking is best, life is good, and there is always something to be grateful for. I created Southern Plate so that I could share the recipes and stories that have been passed down through my family for more than nine generations.

You won't find fancy food or new-fangled recipes in this cookbook--just easy, no-fuss Southern favorites such as Chicken and Dumplings, Homemade Banana Pudding, Aunt Looney's Macaroni Salad, Fried Green Tomatoes, and Daddy's Rise-and-Shine Biscuits. (I want to make one thing as clear as possible: How your mama made it is the right way! I'm going to bring it to you how my mama made it, which is the only right way for me.)

These stories and recipes come from my heart. They are a gift from my ancestors, but the ability to have them heard is a gift from you. Take a seat at the Southern Plate table; you're with family now.

Library Journal Review

Since Jordan's website (www.southernplate.com) launched in 2008, it has had more than 43 million visitors. Readers are quickly falling in love with her simple recipes, which beginning cooks can quickly master. Baked Ham, one of the easiest recipes, has only two ingredients, ham and syrup. Cooks who specialize in Southern food will find plenty of familiar recipes, e.g., Boiled Peanuts (also a two-ingredient dish), Hoe Cake, Aunt Looney's Macaroni Salad, Old-Fashioned Bread Pudding, and Chocolate Velvet Cake (there's also Tookie's Green Velvet Cake). Highly recommended. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
