Amazon.com Review
Finally, a cookbook that interprets America's first "comfort food" in light of the new lower-fat paradigm! Low-fat soul food doesn't have to be an oxymoron any more, thanks to Danella Carter's long food-loving family tradition and gift for experimentation. Her Grilled Barbecued Chicken has only 204 calories and 3 grams of fat per serving. Hungry for Sweet Potato Waffles? One serving with Raspberry Butter will run less than 200 calories and 4 grams of fat. Directions are clear and simple, and all recipes include a complete nutritional analysis.
From Publishers Weekly
Carter removes the lard from traditional African American food, but she leaves the soul in place. Substitutions, such as butter and vegetable shortening in the panoply of biscuit recipes, and a chatty, familiar prose style add charm and spark to this informative, unfussy collection. Ranging over a full repertoire, the collection includes a chapter on refreshing drinks (Gingerade, Rosemary Wine) and another on bath and beauty preparations (Sage Facial Toner) made with kitchen ingredients. Old favorites such as Hoppin' John, made with black-eyed peas, rice and coconut milk, share the limelight with such newfangled ideas as Lemon-Garlic Grits. Carter, a food writer, makes convincing pitches for organic vegetables and Sunday family dinners. Foods of New Orleans (Chicken and Shrimp Jambalaya, Fancy Mess o' Greens), those of Georgia's Gullah tradition (Shrimp and Grits Gratin) and even oysters (Deviled Oysters, Oyster Pie) are given their own chapters. Nutritional information per serving is included with each recipe (although occasionally serving sizes must be estimated); lists of basic kitchen equipment and mail-order sources round out this impressively thorough endeavor.
