Jubilee: Recipes from Two Centuries of African American Cooking by Toni Tipton-Martin

informative reflective

4.0

 This cookbook is heavy on the historical content and food writing, and it is invaluable, so don't just skip over it to get to the recipes. I'm still working on making some more recipes, but I loved reading about the food history the author shared and the charming old recipes (offset from the main recipes, I don't think these old recipes are meant to be followed, as they are less precise with quantities and techniques). It was wonderful to be able to see the evolution of the cuisine through the recipes that have been passed down and published over the generations.
