Description

"When the original Encyclopedia of Southern Culture was published in 1989, the topic of foodways was relatively new as a field of scholarly inquiry. Food has always been central to southern culture, but the past twenty years have brought an explosion of interest in foodways, particularly in the South. This volume marks the first encyclopedia of the food culture of the American South, surveying the vast diversity of foodways within the region and the collective qualities that make them distinctively southern." "Articles in this volume explore the richness of southern foodways, examining not only what southerners eat but also why they eat it. This book offers a primer on America's foremost regional cuisine, a catalog of cookery that encompasses learned disquisitions on Moon Pies and moonshine, biographies of restaurateurs and food writers, and essays exploring how ethnicity, race, and religion each simultaneously affect and reflect the region's foodways."--BOOK JACKET.
