About the speaker:
Accomplished food writer Thompson (managing editor, Edible Piedmont, Grillin' with Gas), who also writes the "Weekend Gourmet"
column for the Raleigh News &
Observer, here begins with spicy Sweet Potato Guacamole, a familiar yet
deliciously unconventional dish that hints at what's to come. Recipes like
Cheese Straws, Ambrosia, Jicama Ginger Slaw, and Fred's Favorite Oyster
Dressing balance old with new, sweet with savory, and plain with upscale. More
importantly, they reflect a rich history and the influences of a talented food
community that includes Sara Foster, James Villas, Frank Stitt, and others.
VERDICT A bible of classic and contemporary Southern sides. Highly
recommended.- Library Journal
