Customer Reviews

I use this again and again!

I picked up this cookbook on a trip to Charleston, and I find myself using it over and over. The recipes are drawn from many different church, community and locally-published cookbooks throughout South Carolina. The result really gives one a flavor of the state. I have tried many recipes and haven't had any failures yet.I loved the seafood when I was visiting the state, and the seafood recipes in this book are great. I especially like the crab stew and the Lowcountry Fettucine (fettucine with a variety of seafood mixed in).The non-seafood recipes are also wonderful. Parmesan Picnic chicken travels well, just as the book promises, and the Stuffed Shells Florentine has become a favorite with almost everyone in my extended family. I also especially enjoyed the recipe for the authentic Lady Baltimore Cake - time-consuming but delicious.As with the other books in this series that I have tried, I would recommend this one highly!
