Nathalie Dupree's Southern Memories:Recipes and Reminiscences

I don't know Nathalie Dupree, but after reading and using the recipes in Southern Memories I feel like I do. This is the kind of cookin' with which I grew up; downhome, politically incorrect, and delicious. After fixin' one of the recipes for my family, my husband remarked that he "knew if I just kept tryin I could learn to cook like my Mama". There is no higher praise for a Southerner from a Southerner!!

core cookbook

This is one of my all time favorite cookbooks. Amazing food! Love so many of these recipes--don't miss the tomato basil roasted red pepper soup. It is one of my favorite foods ever!

Southern Memories

This is an beautiful book filled with gorgeous pictures. Actually, I worked on the book and I can tell you that all the recipes are tested three times. Unlike many other cookbooks, Nathalie's recipes work!

Y so few reviews? GREAT cookbook

lovely pictures and charming, southern smelling annotations. what a fun book to read! The Okra and Shrimp are killer!! Please buy this book, make the food and change some poor ol' yankee's way of thinking about okra!

Fabulous

This is my favorite cookbook ever--I think everyone should have one. Ms. Dupree packs this full of recipes that real people can and would want to make--I like to think of her as comman man's Martha Stewart. What makes this extra special are the wonderful stories and beautiful photographs that accompany the recipes. Even if you never lifted a pan, you'll have a great time looking through the book, although I dare anyone to read through it without wanting to immediately try at least something from it!
