Today I am reminded of how important vital cookbooks are to my life and our culture. Reading The Best Afghan cooking which honors a culture and cuisine I reach for Jubilee which taught me about my home and food , family and culture. I am not southern or black but time and time again when I cook something from this book I am brought back to home and Community. One of the finest reading/eating experiences you can have

This is one of the cookbooks that will not go down in history for its fabulous recipes, but for the historical background provided on the topic, the multitude of references given to other authors/cookbooks that will allow you to delve deeper into the roots of african-american cooking and the history of recipes. I have notes for quite a few other cookbooks now to find and explore.
I read this cookbook cover to cover. The author is a good writer with ease at story telling mixed with lots of facts and historical notes. The book is accessible, the photos well composed.
Not seeing any really exciting and new recipes here, however, the recipes in the book come together well, and they are not difficult to follow.
If you are looking for an in depth collection of Southern, Soul or African American recipes, this would not be my first choice of cookbook. But if you want to learn something about how these recipes came about, the people who cooked them, and the history of black cooks and cooking, this is a valuable and well researched read.
I would like to have a picture reference either with the recipe or with the picture. It is a bit of guess work which recipe...

Honest Reviewer:
I think I am going to return because the spine of the book is falling apart upon delivery. Recipes look interesting though.

Chi ricorda lo splendido Radici di Aldous Huxley, non potrà fare a meno di trovare un paragone culinario in questo splendido libro, che racconta le origini della cucina Gullah-Geechee: dalle coste dell'Africa Occidentale infatti, gli schiavi catturati hanno portato con se' il riso e la capacità di coltivarlo e cucinarlo, trapiantando tale sapere nelle terre dove sono stati imprigionati e maltrattati per generazioni. Ancora oggi il popolo Gullah -Geechee conserva orgogliosamente le sue radici etniche e culturali e porta avanti una cucina unica al mondo, eppure sconosciuta ai più. Da non perdere, assolutamente, e da assaporare piatto per piatto, storia per storia.

Obra maestra. Una gema preciosa de historia de la cocina afrodescendiente en Estados Unidos con esbozos del resto de América y de África. Recetas creadas por la autora desde la interpretación y actualización de recetas tradicionales, acompañadas por recetas antiguas literales que resultan muy emotivas porque muestran los ingredientes y medidas originales. Himno de orgullo afro. Consecuencia de una basta investigación gastronómica. Verdadero activismo culinario. No sólo para amantes de la cocina y la historia, sino para quienes estén interesados en los movimientos de resistencia, y quienes aprecien y reconozcan las tradiciones y cultura de ancestros resilentes propios y ajenos. Tenía mucho tiempo que no me emocionaba tanto un libro de cocina.
