Carolina Quotes
And that flavor of the field, that feeling of being in the field and eating food while it’s still warm from the sun and the smell of the dirt is still in the air inspired me very early

Even though it's all around us here, I think a lot of people don't understand the extent of those influences on our culture. One guy here in Charleston, B.J. Dennis, is a classically trained chef who decided to step out of the kitchen and chase the cuisine of his grandparents. He's really the only person I know who is doing that kind of food, which is great because we need to tell people how special it is. It's the only way to preserve it and stop it from dwindling.
I like books with a lot of writing in them. They’re about more than just the perfect cornbread or red rice recipe. I want a book that explains why we have something in particular cooking in the skillet.
