The real (delicious) deal September 6, 2008
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
As a native Mississippian, I can attest that this is one of the most authentic and beautifully written/photographed Southern cookbooks to hit shelves in years. I so appreciate all the effort that went into it so that, selfishly, it could become part of my "go-to" collection of the very best recipes out there. The beauty and simplicity of the recipes remind me very much of the Scott Peacock/Edna Lewis classic, "The Gift of Southern Cooking." This book, and chef, is also truly gifted. BUY THIS BOOK and you'll be delighted. Now....on to those tamales....and greens....and grits.....and fine stories to match.....
 Good cookbook. Great stories August 29, 2008
I enjoyed this cookbook. The stories that accompany the recipes are enjoyable and familiar. I am a Georgia girl and love to find new southern recipes. These are great!!
Great Selection for a New to Advanced Cook August 27, 2008
I first saw a book review and article about the author in a local newspaper. The book was a gift to an outstanding cook who commented on the recipes; some old standards and some with a new twist. The storytelling throughout the book made it an enjoyable read! I would select this cookbook as a gift for anyone who is a foodie or has a selective taste for wonderful Southern food. It was a hit all around and brought many favorable comments from Mothers, Sisters, Aunts, and a few good neighbors!
Represents the author's expertise as an Executive Chef of a cooking school August 18, 2008
From Lady Pea Salad and Sweet Tea Pie to Mustard-Rubbed Ribs and Blue Cheese Pecan Bread, SCREEN DOORS AND SWEET TEA: RECIPES AND TALES FROM A SOUTHERN COOK packs in stores and down-home cooking from the author's Southern background, includes a generous dose of color photos of completed dishes, and also represents the author's expertise as an Executive Chef of a cooking school teaching home cooks yearly. Any library strong in regional American cooking in general and Southern dishes in particular will find this a popular patron pick.
