Red Pea Gravy

· Reserved 1 cup cooked red peas

· Reserved 2 cups cooking liquid from the peas

· 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

· Cider vinegar

· Sliced chives or scallions for garnish

Peas

· 2 quarts Pork Stock or Chicken Stock

· 1 cup Sea Island Red Peas, soaked in a pot of water in the refrigerator overnight

· 1½ cups medium dice onions

· 1 cup medium dice peeled carrots

· 1½ cups medium dice celery

· 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

· 1 fresh bay leaf

· 10 thyme sprigs

· ½ jalapeño, chopped

· Kosher salt

Rice

· 4 cups water

· 1 teaspoon kosher salt

· ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

· 1 cup Carolina Gold Rice

· 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed

For the peas: Bring the stock to a simmer in a small pot. Drain the peas and add to the stock, along with all of the remaining ingredients except the salt. Cook the peas, partially covered, over low heat until they are soft, about 1 hour. Season to taste with salt.

Drain the peas, reserving their cooking liquid, and measure out

1 cup peas and 2 cups liquid for the gravy; return the rest of the peas and liquid to the pot and keep warm.

Meanwhile, for the rice: About 45 minutes before the peas are cooked, preheat the oven to 300°F.

Bring the water, salt, and cayenne pepper to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium, add the rice, stir once, and bring to a simmer. Simmer gently, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is al dente, about 15 minutes.

Drain the rice in a sieve and rinse under cold water. Spread the rice out on a rimmed baking sheet. Dry the rice in the oven, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. Scatter the butter evenly over the rice and continue to dry it, stirring every few minutes, for about 5 minutes longer. All excess moisture should have evaporated and the grains should be dry and separate.

For the gravy: Put the 1 cup peas, 2 cups cooking liquid, and the butter in a blender and blend on high until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add cider vinegar to taste.

To complete: Use a slotted spoon to transfer the peas to a large serving bowl. Add the rice and carefully toss the rice and peas together. Pour the gravy over them, sprinkle with chives or scallions, and serve.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“The blue ribbon chef cookbook of the year, without a doubt, is Sean Brock’s Heritage. . . . Sometimes a cookbook changes the way you think about food you thought you understood, and this is one of those books.”
New York Times Book Review

Heritage, the first cookbook by Sean Brock, chef at the extraordinary restaurant Husk, in Charleston, South Carolina, is equal parts chronicle of Husk’s best dishes and survey of the local agricultural landscape.”
Saveur
 
“Modern down-home cuisine.”
—InStyle
 
“Stunning photos and rustic-glamorous recipes.”
—Fine Cooking

“Brock is . . . the poet laureate of the kitchen. His cookbook doesn’t just give us recipes; it roots itself in Southern culture.”
—SouthernLiving.com
 

“Elevates the homey . . . and talks straight about basics.”
—People
 
“Delectable.”
—Travel + Leisure
 
Heritage is a journey that will inspire you to understand your own region’s terroir, and the people and practices behind the food that fills your plate.”
Taste of the South
 
“A celebration of Southern ingredients, this ambitious debut provides insight into a notable chef’s carefully crafted cuisine. Highly recommended.”
Library Journal

“Sean Brock has redefined what American food is.
Heritage celebrates the narrative of Lowcountry cooking and tells a story that continues to inspire.”
—David Chang, chef/owner, Momofuku
    
“Sean Brock is one of the most important chefs in America. In looking back at the roots of our cuisine, while always also looking forward, he’s changing the face of American food in wonderful ways.
Heritage will thrill, surprise, and delight as readers discover what a rich, glorious, and delicious culinary history we once had—and, thanks to chefs like Sean, will surely have again. He is an absolutely transformative figure. His food manages to amaze without ever being pretentious or inaccessible. You, too, can cook this stuff. And you should.”    
—Anthony Bourdain

“Sean Brock is a culinary explorer—gifted, passionate, creative. This captivating book reveals Sean’s unique brilliance for merging the essence of the past with the promise of the future. This is an electrifying work and to read it is to witness the advent of a new era in American cooking.”
—Frank Stitt, chef/owner and author of Frank Stitt’s Southern Table

“Sean is one of the most passionate, talented chefs I know. His food is inspiring, enlightening, and so damn delicious! In
Heritage, he shows you the essence of who he is and why he has paved the way in putting the Lowcountry on the map.”
—April Bloomfield, chef and author of A Girl and Her Pig

“Brock resurrects lost flavors and varieties, and—since he's a modernist as well—reinvigorates them with his own delicious style of cooking. Sean Brock is more than just a chef, and this is more than just a cookbook. It will leave you not only enriched, but enlightened.”
—Dan Barber, chef and author of The Third Plate: Field Notes on the Future of Food

“This book is the real deal: American food with a sense of place and history. Reading through it is rather like eating barbeque and drinking beer with Sean Brock; you know you’re in a good place.”
—Fergus Henderson, chef and author of The Complete Nose to Tail

“Sean Brock is one of the most thoughtful cooks I know, with the ability to take a deep understanding of the American South’s culinary history and express it in a way that is unmistakably personal, forward-thinking, and brilliant.
Heritage is a must.”
—René Redzepi, chef/owner, Noma

“Few chefs express the soul of their culture through their cooking as well as Sean. This book is a joyful, radiant vision of the South, seen through the lens of history and illuminated by his imagination. The recipes and stories are a delicious reminder of the pleasure to be found in good ingredients, honest cooking, and staying close to home.”
—Daniel Patterson, chef and author of Coi

“Sean is a passionate and true culinary voice in the telling of the past, present, and the future of his beloved South. He has done an admirable job, and an important one, in spreading the gospel and raising the awareness of a great American regional cooking. You don’t have to be from the South to experience the authentic tastes, flavors, and stories using this book.”
—David Kinch, chef and author of Manresa

“This is the real thing. An honest book. A koan to Southern peoples and places. A humble roster of recipes, recollections, and farmer mash notes, from a country-boy-made-good. Start with muscadine and cucumber gazpacho. Move to rabbit stew with black pepper dumplings. Close with black walnut poundcake, drenched with chocolate gravy. You’re in the hands of a master.”
—John T. Edge, coeditor of The Southern Foodways Alliance Community Cookbook

5.0 out of 5 stars Deeeeelicious! Terrific book. Recommend.
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 6, 2018
I was watching David Chang's new show, Ugly Delicious, the other night, and Sean Brock came on and made his Nashville Hot chicken. He finished it off with a powdered vinegar. My husband and I looked at each other, both needing to taste that right then. I ordered his book and powdered vinegar before the show was even over. Now I have to go find him in Mind of a Chef.

The book is beautiful. He makes all the Southern favorites that we all know and love, but his take on them is so special. The Nashville Hot Chicken's not in here, but he gives his recipes for Fried Chicken, Hot Sauce, and Brock shake that, combined, might get me close. If someone finds the recipe, please email me! :D

My thoughts and pics of the dishes we tried...
1) Southern Screwdriver - p 264. You infuse vodka with jalapenos and go from there. If you like spicy and citrus, you're gonna be happy. We've always loved jalapeno infused beer, and jalapeno margaritas. This is unbelievably refreshing. It's so good that we ordered a countertop orange juice press. lol.
2) Farrotto with Acorn Squash and Red Russian Kale - p 93. This is one of the most delicious vegetarian meals I've ever had. I wasn't expecting that
from a book I'd ordered based on chicken genius. Everyone loved it. Lickable, I tell you. The recipe called for 1 bunch (3 pounds) of kale. I think that's just a scaling issue, or he has access to ginormous bunches of kale. It would have taken 6 bunches to make 3 pounds, so I got 2 bunches (1 pound) and called it a day.

I'll update this as I play in the book more. Some other recipes I have flagged to try: Strawberry Gazpacho with Tomato Water Jelly, Basil Ice, and Stone Crab Salad - p 34 * Beet and Strawberry Salad with Sorrel and Rhubarb Vinaigrette - p 37 * Creamed Corn - p 49 * Roasted Cauliflower with Meyer Lemon and Brown Butter, Watercress, and Pink Peppercorns - p 59 * Cracklin' Cornbread - p 71 * Wild-Ramp-and-Crab-Stuffed Hushpuppies with Green Goddess Dressing - p 78 * Einkorn Biscuits - p 84 * Benne-Buttermilk Rolls - p 90 * Fried Chicken and Gravy - p 101 * Grilled Chicken Wings with Burnt-Scallion Barbeque Sauce - p 104 * Husk Cheeseburger - p 131 * Herb-Marinated Hanger Steak with Vidalia Onion Gratin and Steak Sauce - p 135 * Slow-Cooked Pork Shoulder with Tomato Gravy, Creamed Corn, and Roasted Baby Vidalias - p 138 * Pork Belly with Herbed Farro, Pickled Elderberries, Chanterelles, and Sumac - p 148 * Beer-Battered Soft-Shell Crabs with Spring Vegetables, Benne, and Soft Fried Egg - p 174 * Roasted Scallops with Pumpkin and Matsutake, Brussels Sprouts, and Black Truffle - p 180 * Lobster with Parsnip Puree, Leeks Braised with Orange, and Vadouvan Jus - p 182 * Swordfish with Celeriac Roasted in Hay, Cider-Braised Lettuce Ribs, and Country Ham Emulsion - p 199 * Pickled Peaches - p 213 * Satsuma Orange and Burnt Honey Marmalade - p 215 * Strawberry-Meyer Lemon Jam - p 216 * Watermelon Rind Mostarda - p 220 * Butter-Bean Chowchow - p 227 * Tomato Jam - p 229 * Rhubarb Ketchup - p 237 * Smoked Bacon for Beginners - p 243 * Pimento Cheese - p 248 * The Julian Cocktail - p 261 * The Pecan Whiskey Daisy - p 266 * Fire in the Orchard - p 273 * Buttermilk Pie with Cornmeal Crust - p 293 * Rhubarb Buckle with Poppy Seed-Buttermilk Ice Cream - p 294 * Sweet Potato Doughnuts with Bourbon Caramel - p 301 * Chewy Benton's Bacon Caramels - p 303 * The Brock Blend
