Toni Tipton-Martin Jubilee: Recipes From Two Centuries Of African-American Cooking: A Cookbook

Tipton-Martin, a culinary journalist, community activist, and founding member of the Southern Foodways Alliance, won a James Beard Award for The Jemima Code, her groundbreaking history of the role of Black Americans in the development of the cuisines of the American South. Building on that research, much of it drawn from her own collection of 300-plus African American cookbooks, Tipton-Martin complements the story of the food with a rich selection of the actual recipes, updated and adapted for today’s kitchens. Much more than “soul food,” these dishes were created by skilled and imaginative Black cooks who drew on a wide range of cuisines, and in turn, influenced later American cooking. This event is free to attend and is from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. For more information click here.
