Soul
‘Jimmy Lee is one of America’s great black chefs. A native of Louisiana, he has cooked from Natchez to Mobile, Charleston to New Orleans. Now semiretired, Jimmy Lee lives in California and cooks only for family and friends.’
Jimmy Lee’s Soul Food Cook Book. From 1970. Old paperback found at a garage sale. Dogeared, cause I’ve cooked a lot of stuff outta it.
Cheap ingredients, incredible flavors. Here’s a bucketful of recipes . . . .
