My Morher's Southern KItchen Cookbook by James Villas

My Mother’s Southern Kitchen - Recipes and  Reminiscences 

James Villas with Martha Pearl Villas 

On offer is a previously owned 1994 hardback book in a dust cover,  both in like new condition. Sources say, “The food and wine editor for Town and Country presents a collection of 265 simple, no-nonsense Southern recipes--everything from Barbecued Spareribs to Sweet Potato Biscuits. Intertwined with colorful family lore, bits of nostalgia, and cooking tips, the recipes are drawn from Martha Pearl Villas' sacred black cookbook, compiled over decades.” This is a wonderful addition to a collection of Southern cookbooks, for yourself or as a gift. The recipes are approachable, with easily obtained ingredients; and the notes from Martha Pearl are fun, whether you cook from the book or not.
