In these anxious times this book strikes a strong chord. To quote "we should all think about returning to the sanctity of the table, where we can rebuild our families, heal spiritually and physically, and reconnect with those we love. The table is a familiar, uncomplicated, and friendly place where we can celebrate family, friends, food, and life’s many blessings".
Wouldn’t you share with family and friends, fluffy yeast biscuits, buttermilk fried chicken, bibb lettuce salad with pecans, blue cheese and pears, southern sweet potato pie and sparkling lemonade ? This is serious comfort food. It’s all here.
Back to the Table recipes are simple to prepare, with an emphasis on good down-home Southern food. Menu suggestions, a plethora of tasty little side dishes, sepia, black and white, and colour photos light up the pages, as does Art Smith’s observations on the reunion of food and family.
Art Smith is personal chef to Oprah Winfrey.
