Hazel is in the location of the former short-lived Cadence. In nearby spots, AQ, Bon Marche, and Oro have all had to shut their doors too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What owner Jamie Boatner, previously the partial owner of Sutter Street's Sugar Cafe & Lounge, is betting is that a more casual, fun space can succeed where others have failed. Judging by the soft opening on Friday night, it's not a bad bet. The place was packed with groups snacking around the communal tables, playing pool, and enjoying the well-stocked bar. The three communal tables and booth draw the bulk of the large crowd, but there's also a bar in the back of the space, and a separate section with lounge-like chairs and small tables. In the far back, behind the co-ed bathroom, Hazel's supplies the food for the local jazz club, \u003ca href=\"https://mrtipplessf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Mr. Tipple’s Recording Studio\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are still some service kinks to be worked out, as is to be expected somewhat for a soft opening. Most of the crowd, though, seemed not to be high-end food tourists come specifically for the opening, but rather locals who had wandered in looking for good food and a good time. If the service can deliver, the tasty Southern comfort plates will keep drawing them back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_117039\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 5312px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2.jpg\" alt=\"The inside of the southern restaurant is done in a retro-style.\" width=\"5312\" height=\"2988\" class=\"size-full wp-image-117039\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2.jpg 5312w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-160x90.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-768x432.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-960x540.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-240x135.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-375x211.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-520x293.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5312px) 100vw, 5312px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The inside of the southern restaurant is done in a retro-style. \u003ccite>(Kelly O'Mara)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The restaurant is named Hazel after Boatner's mother, who ran a bar in Cheyenne, Wyoming for most of his life.

Hazel is in the location of the former short-lived Cadence. In nearby spots, AQ, Bon Marche, and Oro have all had to shut their doors too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What owner Jamie Boatner, previously the partial owner of Sutter Street's Sugar Cafe & Lounge, is betting is that a more casual, fun space can succeed where others have failed. Judging by the soft opening on Friday night, it's not a bad bet. The place was packed with groups snacking around the communal tables, playing pool, and enjoying the well-stocked bar. The three communal tables and booth draw the bulk of the large crowd, but there's also a bar in the back of the space, and a separate section with lounge-like chairs and small tables. In the far back, behind the co-ed bathroom, Hazel's supplies the food for the local jazz club, \u003ca href=\"https://mrtipplessf.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Mr. Tipple’s Recording Studio\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are still some service kinks to be worked out, as is to be expected somewhat for a soft opening. Most of the crowd, though, seemed not to be high-end food tourists come specifically for the opening, but rather locals who had wandered in looking for good food and a good time. If the service can deliver, the tasty Southern comfort plates will keep drawing them back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_117039\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 5312px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2.jpg\" alt=\"The inside of the southern restaurant is done in a retro-style.\" width=\"5312\" height=\"2988\" class=\"size-full wp-image-117039\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2.jpg 5312w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-160x90.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-800x450.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-768x432.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-960x540.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-240x135.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-375x211.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/04/hazel2-520x293.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5312px) 100vw, 5312px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The inside of the southern restaurant is done in a retro-style. \u003ccite>(Kelly O'Mara)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The restaurant is named Hazel after Boatner's mother, who ran a bar in Cheyenne, Wyoming for most of his life.

Lawrence, a London native, is 1300 on Fillmore’s executive chef and managing partner. He has cooked for royalty and was formally trained in the culinary arts at Westminster College. In 1982, Lawrence joined England's most celebrated and honored culinarians, Albert and Michel Roux, who were definitely considered \"celeb chefs\" there and were the chef-proprietors of the world-renowned \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pages/Le-Gavroche/112349592115580?ref=ts&fref=ts\">Le Gavroche\u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"http://www.waterside-inn.co.uk/\">Waterside Inn\u003c/a> (at that time, both three-star Michelin restaurants). Lawrence cooked his way through five of their famous restaurants and became a sous chef, in four short years. In 1986, Lawrence became chef de cuisine at Interlude Restaurant in London, which gave him the sweet chance to make meals for none other than the Prince and Princess of Wales; Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon; and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He left for the U.S. in 1988 in a kismet vacation moment that led to chef de cuisine work with a former Le Gavroche chef named Kurt Graising who was opening \u003ca href=\"http://www.231ellsworth.com/\">231 Ellsworth Restaurant\u003c/a> in San Mateo.

When I walk around and go out, people say that fried chicken is the bestseller. It is so funny because I come from Europe and have worked with Michelin-starred chefs. I have no complaints but my claim to fame is chicken. I just turned 50 in February, and it’s, “Wow, I’m 50 and known for fried chicken.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I am the most proud of dishes like shrimp and grits and fried chicken. The shrimp and grits dishes really got me to look at this cuisine and what we do. Monetta is from Mississippi and we’ve been together for 19 years. We have a similar thing in England where I am from that is cornmeal porridge: sugar, nutmeg, and spice to make it nice and creamy. I cooked the grits more or less the same way and decided to do it without the sugar. Slowly but surely, people became interested and back then, no one was doing this. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: As a chef and businessman, what would you like to be known for?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Lawrence:\u003c/strong> It’s a fine line doing both. I’ve seen many amazing chefs open restaurants and crash. I’ve seen many mediocre chefs succeed because of their business acumen. As a chef, you have to cook what your customers want instead of what your ego wants. It’s about getting that balance. With the restaurant’s earlier days, I had foie gras, lamb, and rabbit and it was great for me but I couldn’t sell it. I never wanted a hamburger but I put one on the menu because people want it. It’s about finding the fine line between your own ego and what makes sense and sells.

It's called \u003cem>The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen\u003c/em>, and in it, Matt and Ted Lee feature recipes and stories from the Southern port city they grew up in. The brothers joined NPR's Melissa Block to talk about Charleston's distinctive food culture, starting with the dishes that they'd put on a typical Charleston menu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would start with kumquat sparklers, with the flavor of backyard kumquats, which are like tangerines,\" Matt says. \"Also, classic Charleston cheese biscuits with a single pecan pressed into it, and savory benne wafers — sesame seed wafers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/books/titles/177362137/the-lee-bros-charleston-kitchen\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-bookcover.jpg\" alt=\"The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen\" width=\"300\" height=\"314\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-60345\">\u003c/a>For the second course, Ted says, \"we'd do a she-crab soup, and then we'd do a shrimp and grits,\" he says. \"For vegetables, I think this is the perfect time to do chainey briar; it's growing really well out on Sullivan's Island. We'd do some \u003ca href=\"#briar\">Grilled Chainey Briar\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Chainey briar is a native weed or vine,\" Ted explains. \"It's \u003cem>Smilax\u003c/em> botanically. It's something that grows on fence lines, it grows on sand dunes at the beaches and it has, in the spring right about now, a tender tip, a shoot that is delicious.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It looks, quite frankly, like a weed, and might be a bit of an acquired taste — but the brothers say it's worth acquiring. \"It's pretty rangy, and that's the appeal, in terms of flavor,\" Matt says. It tastes like asparagus but with this extra sort of reckless green thing. Sometimes we describe it as tasting like asparagus with olive oil already on it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For dessert, the brothers would serve \u003ca href=\"#torte\">Huguenot Torte\u003c/a>, an iconic Charleston dish. \"Hugeonot torte has this nice meringue-like crisp top, but then a sludgy caramel and apple and pecan bottom to it,\" Matt says. \"It's got flour but tons of leavening — so it just puffs up in the oven, then collapses and creates this very interesting and uniquely Charleston dessert.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Southern Food With Less Pork And More Loquats\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Lee brothers, who were born in New York but grew up in Charleston, have written two previous cookbooks highlighting Southern cuisine. This is their first to focus just on the city of their youth, and their choice is more than just hometown favoritism: Charleston's culinary tradition is unusual, with dishes and traditions you won't find in other parts of the South.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's naturally about the seafood and also about the poultry,\" Matt explains. \"The much-heralded, like, 'porkopolis' of the South doesn't really exist so much in Charleston, because it was never a place to raise cattle or pigs, being so marshy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not just the meat that makes Charleston stand out; there's also a rich variety of local produce. \"I think another thing that visitors to Charleston are surprised by is just how close the farms are — the rural part of Charleston — to the city,\" Ted says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You might not even need to find a farmer to get fresh food. \"Even downtown — we grew up downtown in the historic district — we're surrounded by fruits of all kinds, like kumquats, loquats, mulberries, figs, pomegranates, bananas, citrus,\" Ted says. \"They all grow downtown, and you grow up sort of knowing where the trees are and which ones taste best.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Call it \"foraging\" or call it \"stealing,\" snagging fruit off someone else's tree is certainly possible in Charleston. \"There are a lot of secrets in back alleys in Charleston that yield great fruits and herbs.\" The trick to harvesting that bounty without ruining your neighborly relations? \"Be very polite,\" Ted says — and, Matt adds, be sure to smile. \"That's awfully disarming,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Taking Cues From The Past\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to highlighting Charleston's current food culture, Matt and Ted Lee also looked to Charleston's history to find old recipes that might have been forgotten. Cookbooks from the 19th century were particularly inspiring, Ted says. \"They tell a story so diverse and varied about the different types of vegetables that were grown in the low country, some of which are rarely found, like salsify, tania — it's a root vegetable,\" he says. \"It's nice to be able to draw from the past to inform your kitchen in the present.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One recipe in the new cookbook comes from an even more distant past — a dessert from the 1700s called \u003ca href=\"#syllabub\">Syllabub\u003c/a>. \"Despite the fact that it appears in all the old cookbooks, Matt and I have never been served it — either in a Charleston restaurant or a Charleston home,\" Ted says. \"So we just tried it ourselves. It's basically very simple — it's fortified wine that's been seasoned with lemon juice and lemon peel, a little bit of sugar, sometimes spices, and whipped with cream until it's sort of this airy, fluffy, alcoholic whipped cream that goes really well with fruit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you want to follow Matt and Ted and take a stab at Syllabub, a recipe is below, as well as recipes for Huguenot Torte and Grilled Chainey Briar. But be warned: You might need to plan a trip to Charleston to enjoy that chainey briar. You won't find it in grocery stores or farmers markets, and will have better luck harvesting it yourself. Like fresh kumquats off the tree or oysters from the ocean, it's a location-bound delicacy. As Matt Lee, who lives in Charleston today, puts it, \"it's just one of those things that you have to live here to really appreciate.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca name=\"briar\">\u003c/a>Recipe: Grilled Chainey Briar\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_60346\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 290px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-chaineybriar.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-chaineybriar-290x290.jpg\" alt=\"Chainey briar grows wild around Charleston, S.C.

Photo: Matt Lee and Ted Lee/Clarkson Potter\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Chainey briar is what Charlestonians of a certain age call the tender shoots of the smilax (aka cat briar) vine, which can be found growing in the dunes and along sandy fence lines throughout the area. The distinctive spade-shaped leaves distinguish smilax from other vines growing in the same terrain. When raw, chainey briar has a delicious asparagus-and-olive-oil flavor that is fresh and green; lightly cooked, it is even more appetizing and tender. Chainey briar appears most often in community cookbooks of the rural sea islands, like Edisto and Yonge's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most chainey briar found among the dunes or in metropolitan Charleston are thin, curly tendrils, although our friend Tom, who gentleman-farms on Johns Island, recently introduced us to \"bull briar,\" the thicker sprouts of mature smilax vines that grow in the forested areas of the sea islands. Bull briar, which truly resembles large asparagus, would seem to represent more vegetable for one's effort, but it is found so high in the trees that a pole pruner is usually required to harvest it. We're just as happy to spend the afternoon on a path to the beach, eating every third tendril we pick, until the basket is full.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chainey briar almost never appears in the farmer's markets, so you must forage for it yourself (or ingratiate yourself to farmer Sidi Limehouse [see page 94 of The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen], who will occasionally indulge good friends with a basketful). Its flavor is robust enough that it grills well, wilting and charring in places. Dressed with oil and lemon, it makes for an exciting side dish with pre-colonial roots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 pound chainey briar\u003cbr>1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the pan\u003cbr>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003cbr>2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Thoroughly wash the chainey briar, removing any ants or foreign matter and pinching off the stem ends (which will toughen as they age) so only the tender parts remain. Toss the chainey briar in a large bowl with the olive oil to coat, scatter 1/2 teaspoon salt over the bowl, and toss again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Lightly oil a grill pan, and place it over high heat. When a drop of water sizzles when dropped on the pan, spread the chainey briar in an even layer about 1/2 inch high (you may have to grill multiple batches, depending on the size of your pan). Allow the chainey briar to sizzle and pop for a minute or two, until the tips of some begin to blacken. Use tongs to shuffle the chainey briar on the grill pan and allow them to cook a minute or two more, until almost all the fronds show signs of wilting. Reserve the chainey briar in a large covered bowl as you move on to grill another batch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. When all the chainey briar is wilted and charred, dress it with the lemon juice, toss lightly, and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca name=\"torte\">\u003c/a>Recipe: Huguenot Torte\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_60347\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 290px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothershuguenot-torte.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothershuguenot-torte-290x290.jpg\" alt=\"Huguenot torte has gooey caramel beneath a crackly top Photo: Squire Fox/Clarkson Potter\" width=\"290\" height=\"290\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-60347\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Huguenot torte has gooey caramel beneath a crackly top Photo: Squire Fox/Clarkson Potter\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Serves: 6 to 8\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\u003cem>Time: 55 minutes, 10 minutes cooling\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Imagine that a blondie and an apple-pecan pie got into a crusty-gooey, sticky-delicious accident in a baking dish, and you'll approximate the ultra-decadence of this dessert. Until relatively recently, Charlestonians believed that this confection, as the title might suggest, came to Charleston with the French Huguenots, who settled in the city in the eighteenth century, and that it was a rustic cousin of elegant pâtisseries. But in the 1990s, the culinary historian and Lowcountry native John Martin Taylor tracked down the woman to whom the recipe is attributed in Charleston Receipts, and learned that she'd encountered the dish as \"Ozark Pudding\" while visiting relatives in Arkansas in the 1940s. She had brought the recipe back to Charleston, and put the dessert on the menu of the Huguenot Tavern, where she was a cook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that this dessert has become as much an icon of Charleston home cooking as Charleston Okra Soup [see page 74 of The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen] and She-Crab Soup [page 77] seems odd — but it's all part of \"Charleston's food pattern,\" as May A. Pyatt wrote in a 1950 review of Charleston Receipts in the News and Courier. Another interesting note: not many Charleston restaurants these days offer the torte — or even variants upon it — but it is almost always offered on menus at the tea rooms [see page 79] that open in the spring throughout the area. You should master it yourself; it's easy to make and easy to eat, and nice to have in your repertoire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When we're serving this dish for guests, we often temper its sweetness by whipping a small amount of buttermilk or sour cream into the whipped cream garnish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>unsalted butter for greasing the dish\u003cbr>2 large eggs\u003cbr>1 1/3 cups sugar\u003cbr>1/4 cup all-purpose flour\u003cbr>2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder\u003cbr>1/4 teaspoon kosher salt\u003cbr>1 Granny Smith or other tart apple, cored, peeled, and diced (1 cup)\u003cbr>1 cup chopped pecans\u003cbr>1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract\u003cbr>1/2 cup heavy cream\u003cbr>2 tablespoons whole buttermilk or sour cream\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart baking dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk until they're creamy and frothy. Add the sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, apple, pecans, and vanilla, whisking to combine after each addition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top of the torte is crusty. Remove the torte from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Whip the cream with the buttermilk until stiff peaks form. Cut into individual portions — they will be lumpen and misshapen, with shards of crust and spoonfuls of ooze, but no matter — and serve with dollops of the whipped cream.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca name=\"syllabub\">\u003c/a>Recipe: Syllabub With Rosemary-Glazed Figs\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_60343\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 666px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-syllabub.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-syllabub.jpg\" alt=\"Syllabub is a traditional dessert featuring sherry, cream and sugar.

Remove the lemon peel from the wine mixture. Pour the cream into the wine and whisk by hand until the cream is thick and holds its shape, about 2 minutes.

Simply substitute for the rosemary-glazed figs 4 ounces strawberries that have been quartered and tossed a few times with sugar to taste (a teaspoon or two) until the sugar has dissolved. (Add a few drops water, if needed, to dissolve). Spoon the strawberries over each serving of Syllabub, then grind a bit of black pepper over the top of each and serve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Recipes from \u003c/em>The Lee Bros.

It's called \u003cem>The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen\u003c/em>, and in it, Matt and Ted Lee feature recipes and stories from the Southern port city they grew up in. The brothers joined NPR's Melissa Block to talk about Charleston's distinctive food culture, starting with the dishes that they'd put on a typical Charleston menu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would start with kumquat sparklers, with the flavor of backyard kumquats, which are like tangerines,\" Matt says. \"Also, classic Charleston cheese biscuits with a single pecan pressed into it, and savory benne wafers — sesame seed wafers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/books/titles/177362137/the-lee-bros-charleston-kitchen\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-bookcover.jpg\" alt=\"The Lee Bros.

We'd do some \u003ca href=\"#briar\">Grilled Chainey Briar\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Chainey briar is a native weed or vine,\" Ted explains. \"It's \u003cem>Smilax\u003c/em> botanically. It's something that grows on fence lines, it grows on sand dunes at the beaches and it has, in the spring right about now, a tender tip, a shoot that is delicious.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It looks, quite frankly, like a weed, and might be a bit of an acquired taste — but the brothers say it's worth acquiring. \"It's pretty rangy, and that's the appeal, in terms of flavor,\" Matt says. It tastes like asparagus but with this extra sort of reckless green thing. Sometimes we describe it as tasting like asparagus with olive oil already on it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For dessert, the brothers would serve \u003ca href=\"#torte\">Huguenot Torte\u003c/a>, an iconic Charleston dish. \"Hugeonot torte has this nice meringue-like crisp top, but then a sludgy caramel and apple and pecan bottom to it,\" Matt says. \"It's got flour but tons of leavening — so it just puffs up in the oven, then collapses and creates this very interesting and uniquely Charleston dessert.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Southern Food With Less Pork And More Loquats\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Lee brothers, who were born in New York but grew up in Charleston, have written two previous cookbooks highlighting Southern cuisine. This is their first to focus just on the city of their youth, and their choice is more than just hometown favoritism: Charleston's culinary tradition is unusual, with dishes and traditions you won't find in other parts of the South.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's naturally about the seafood and also about the poultry,\" Matt explains. \"The much-heralded, like, 'porkopolis' of the South doesn't really exist so much in Charleston, because it was never a place to raise cattle or pigs, being so marshy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not just the meat that makes Charleston stand out; there's also a rich variety of local produce. \"I think another thing that visitors to Charleston are surprised by is just how close the farms are — the rural part of Charleston — to the city,\" Ted says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You might not even need to find a farmer to get fresh food. \"Even downtown — we grew up downtown in the historic district — we're surrounded by fruits of all kinds, like kumquats, loquats, mulberries, figs, pomegranates, bananas, citrus,\" Ted says. \"They all grow downtown, and you grow up sort of knowing where the trees are and which ones taste best.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Call it \"foraging\" or call it \"stealing,\" snagging fruit off someone else's tree is certainly possible in Charleston. \"There are a lot of secrets in back alleys in Charleston that yield great fruits and herbs.\" The trick to harvesting that bounty without ruining your neighborly relations? \"Be very polite,\" Ted says — and, Matt adds, be sure to smile. \"That's awfully disarming,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Taking Cues From The Past\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to highlighting Charleston's current food culture, Matt and Ted Lee also looked to Charleston's history to find old recipes that might have been forgotten. Cookbooks from the 19th century were particularly inspiring, Ted says. \"They tell a story so diverse and varied about the different types of vegetables that were grown in the low country, some of which are rarely found, like salsify, tania — it's a root vegetable,\" he says. \"It's nice to be able to draw from the past to inform your kitchen in the present.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One recipe in the new cookbook comes from an even more distant past — a dessert from the 1700s called \u003ca href=\"#syllabub\">Syllabub\u003c/a>. \"Despite the fact that it appears in all the old cookbooks, Matt and I have never been served it — either in a Charleston restaurant or a Charleston home,\" Ted says. \"So we just tried it ourselves. It's basically very simple — it's fortified wine that's been seasoned with lemon juice and lemon peel, a little bit of sugar, sometimes spices, and whipped with cream until it's sort of this airy, fluffy, alcoholic whipped cream that goes really well with fruit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you want to follow Matt and Ted and take a stab at Syllabub, a recipe is below, as well as recipes for Huguenot Torte and Grilled Chainey Briar. But be warned: You might need to plan a trip to Charleston to enjoy that chainey briar. You won't find it in grocery stores or farmers markets, and will have better luck harvesting it yourself. Like fresh kumquats off the tree or oysters from the ocean, it's a location-bound delicacy. As Matt Lee, who lives in Charleston today, puts it, \"it's just one of those things that you have to live here to really appreciate.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca name=\"briar\">\u003c/a>Recipe: Grilled Chainey Briar\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_60346\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 290px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-chaineybriar.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-chaineybriar-290x290.jpg\" alt=\"Chainey briar grows wild around Charleston, S.C.

Photo: Matt Lee and Ted Lee/Clarkson Potter\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Chainey briar is what Charlestonians of a certain age call the tender shoots of the smilax (aka cat briar) vine, which can be found growing in the dunes and along sandy fence lines throughout the area. The distinctive spade-shaped leaves distinguish smilax from other vines growing in the same terrain. When raw, chainey briar has a delicious asparagus-and-olive-oil flavor that is fresh and green; lightly cooked, it is even more appetizing and tender. Chainey briar appears most often in community cookbooks of the rural sea islands, like Edisto and Yonge's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most chainey briar found among the dunes or in metropolitan Charleston are thin, curly tendrils, although our friend Tom, who gentleman-farms on Johns Island, recently introduced us to \"bull briar,\" the thicker sprouts of mature smilax vines that grow in the forested areas of the sea islands. Bull briar, which truly resembles large asparagus, would seem to represent more vegetable for one's effort, but it is found so high in the trees that a pole pruner is usually required to harvest it. We're just as happy to spend the afternoon on a path to the beach, eating every third tendril we pick, until the basket is full.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chainey briar almost never appears in the farmer's markets, so you must forage for it yourself (or ingratiate yourself to farmer Sidi Limehouse [see page 94 of The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen], who will occasionally indulge good friends with a basketful). Its flavor is robust enough that it grills well, wilting and charring in places. Dressed with oil and lemon, it makes for an exciting side dish with pre-colonial roots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1 pound chainey briar\u003cbr>1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the pan\u003cbr>Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper\u003cbr>2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Thoroughly wash the chainey briar, removing any ants or foreign matter and pinching off the stem ends (which will toughen as they age) so only the tender parts remain. Toss the chainey briar in a large bowl with the olive oil to coat, scatter 1/2 teaspoon salt over the bowl, and toss again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Lightly oil a grill pan, and place it over high heat. When a drop of water sizzles when dropped on the pan, spread the chainey briar in an even layer about 1/2 inch high (you may have to grill multiple batches, depending on the size of your pan). Allow the chainey briar to sizzle and pop for a minute or two, until the tips of some begin to blacken. Use tongs to shuffle the chainey briar on the grill pan and allow them to cook a minute or two more, until almost all the fronds show signs of wilting. Reserve the chainey briar in a large covered bowl as you move on to grill another batch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. When all the chainey briar is wilted and charred, dress it with the lemon juice, toss lightly, and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca name=\"torte\">\u003c/a>Recipe: Huguenot Torte\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_60347\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 290px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothershuguenot-torte.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothershuguenot-torte-290x290.jpg\" alt=\"Huguenot torte has gooey caramel beneath a crackly top Photo: Squire Fox/Clarkson Potter\" width=\"290\" height=\"290\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-60347\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Huguenot torte has gooey caramel beneath a crackly top Photo: Squire Fox/Clarkson Potter\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Serves: 6 to 8\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\u003cem>Time: 55 minutes, 10 minutes cooling\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Imagine that a blondie and an apple-pecan pie got into a crusty-gooey, sticky-delicious accident in a baking dish, and you'll approximate the ultra-decadence of this dessert. Until relatively recently, Charlestonians believed that this confection, as the title might suggest, came to Charleston with the French Huguenots, who settled in the city in the eighteenth century, and that it was a rustic cousin of elegant pâtisseries. But in the 1990s, the culinary historian and Lowcountry native John Martin Taylor tracked down the woman to whom the recipe is attributed in Charleston Receipts, and learned that she'd encountered the dish as \"Ozark Pudding\" while visiting relatives in Arkansas in the 1940s. She had brought the recipe back to Charleston, and put the dessert on the menu of the Huguenot Tavern, where she was a cook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that this dessert has become as much an icon of Charleston home cooking as Charleston Okra Soup [see page 74 of The Lee Bros. Charleston Kitchen] and She-Crab Soup [page 77] seems odd — but it's all part of \"Charleston's food pattern,\" as May A. Pyatt wrote in a 1950 review of Charleston Receipts in the News and Courier. Another interesting note: not many Charleston restaurants these days offer the torte — or even variants upon it — but it is almost always offered on menus at the tea rooms [see page 79] that open in the spring throughout the area. You should master it yourself; it's easy to make and easy to eat, and nice to have in your repertoire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When we're serving this dish for guests, we often temper its sweetness by whipping a small amount of buttermilk or sour cream into the whipped cream garnish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>unsalted butter for greasing the dish\u003cbr>2 large eggs\u003cbr>1 1/3 cups sugar\u003cbr>1/4 cup all-purpose flour\u003cbr>2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder\u003cbr>1/4 teaspoon kosher salt\u003cbr>1 Granny Smith or other tart apple, cored, peeled, and diced (1 cup)\u003cbr>1 cup chopped pecans\u003cbr>1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract\u003cbr>1/2 cup heavy cream\u003cbr>2 tablespoons whole buttermilk or sour cream\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart baking dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk until they're creamy and frothy. Add the sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, apple, pecans, and vanilla, whisking to combine after each addition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top of the torte is crusty. Remove the torte from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Whip the cream with the buttermilk until stiff peaks form. Cut into individual portions — they will be lumpen and misshapen, with shards of crust and spoonfuls of ooze, but no matter — and serve with dollops of the whipped cream.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca name=\"syllabub\">\u003c/a>Recipe: Syllabub With Rosemary-Glazed Figs\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_60343\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 666px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-syllabub.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/04/lee-brothers-syllabub.jpg\" alt=\"Syllabub is a traditional dessert featuring sherry, cream and sugar.

Remove the lemon peel from the wine mixture. Pour the cream into the wine and whisk by hand until the cream is thick and holds its shape, about 2 minutes.

Simply substitute for the rosemary-glazed figs 4 ounces strawberries that have been quartered and tossed a few times with sugar to taste (a teaspoon or two) until the sugar has dissolved. (Add a few drops water, if needed, to dissolve).

And why not, really? They're basically the best most adult Reese's you've ever tasted except without the cloyingly sweet aftertaste. They're cloaked in rich dark chocolate and are a cinch to throw together as there's no baking involved. We made these on Christmas Eve at my house and they were an instant hit: they're an old Southern recipe and many people remember them fondly from their childhood. Others just can't stay away from a good old-fashioned peanut butter ball. So for this week leading up to New Year's Day, I encourage you to deem a food that you love lucky, whip it up, and enjoy it wholeheartedly. Whether you're a traditionalist or a maverick peanut butter lover, go to town. Life is short. Eat Buckeyes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Buckeyes\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAdapted from: \u003ca href=\"http://smittenkitchen.com/2010/10/buckeyes/\">Smitten Kitchen\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yield: 35-40 tablespoon-sized candies\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deb's recipe is from \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Baked-Explorations-American-Desserts-Reinvented/dp/1584798505\">Baked Explorations\u003c/a>, one of my favorite cookbooks of the year. And I love this version of Buckeyes because it cuts way down on the sugar you'll typically see and adds graham cracker crumbs which give them a nice texture. I've gone even further with my adaptation using chunky peanut butter and cutting back on the sugar even further. To make your own graham cracker crumbs, just throw your whole grahams into the food processor and pulse until fine. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Ingredients: \u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n1/4 cup (2 ounces) cream cheese, softened\u003cbr>\n1 1/2 cups chunky peanut butter\u003cbr>\n1 cup graham cracker crumbs (from about 12 graham crackers)\u003cbr>\n2 3/4 cups confectioners’ (powdered) sugar\u003cbr>\n10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks or 5 ounces) unsalted butter, melted and cooled\u003cbr>\n10 ounces dark chocolate (I use 70%), chopped coarsely\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Method: \u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n1. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the peanut butter and cream cheese until just combined. Add the graham cracker crumbs and beat again until just mixed together. Next add the butter and sugar and start mixing slowly so the butter doesn't slosh around. Mix for ten seconds, stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl, then mix again until the mixture is sturdy and looks like a dry cookie dough. Set aside. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Make the dark chocolate coating: Use either a double boiler or a heat-safe bowl nestled atop a pot of boiling water to melt you chocolate. Stir the chocolate continuously so it doesn't burn and so that it remains smooth. Once melted completely, let it cool enough so that you can dunk your finger in it (around 100 degrees) -- this is the optimal temperature for coating candies. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Assemble the buckeyes: Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Using a tablespoon, scoop out a small ball and use your hands to form it into a perfect ball. I used a kitchen scale and measured each ball out to be 1 oz. This way they were all consistent. Place the balls on the prepared sheet with just a little room apart from one another. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Using a toothpick or a skewer, dip each ball into the chocolate and roll it about so that almost the entire candy is coated. You'll inevitably have a few that fall off completely in the chocolate. Practice with a few and you'll get it down. Dip quickly and at an angle. You have a little hole at the top from your skewer which you can quickly push back into place with your fingers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Chill the buckeyes until they are set, about 30-40 minutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-7 days. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Megan Gordon's New Year's tradition: choose your lucky food!

I know I do it and I also know many others fall prey to thoughts of afternoon mint juleps, big willowy trees, and visions of a slower pace of life. Recently during one of my Craigslist property searches/obsessions, I ran across a little Craftsman house in Durham, North Carolina and fell in love. I called the realtor. I’ve never been to Durham and actually, I've never really been to the South (I hear Austin, TX doesn’t count). The house had sold. My coworkers rejoiced; they'd no longer have to listen to my sudden, out-of-left-field obsession with a town I'd never been to and a house I couldn't really afford. So here we are. Back to reality—and a great book by James Beard Cookbook of the Year winner, Joseph Dabney. The publisher contacted me to see if I'd be interested in checking it out, knowing that I have a fondness for Southern food and food history. After reading a brief description, I was sold. In \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Food-Folklore-Art-Lowcountry-Cooking/dp/1402230982\">The Food, Folklore and Art of Lowcountry Cooking\u003c/a>, Dabney takes readers on a tour of the various regions of the Southern Lowcountry including Charleston, Beaufort, and Savannah. In this tour, he offers traditional recipes, first-hand history and lore, and stories from long-time residents and high-end chefs alike. This is, I'm guessing, a truly representative swath of a part of the country I can't wait to visit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The book is organized into thematic chapters detailing the history of various cities and moving on to focus more specifically on infamous foods from the region like Hoppin' John, Goobers and Grits. The first chapter lays out the \"big picture\" and the mystique of the Lowcountry nicely. Dabney calls it \"a different world,\" and describes coming to Charleston for the first time in the 1950's and experiencing culture shock. Many of the homes were elegant, the gardens lush, and the locals spoke in a much different-sounding dialect than the oft-recognized \"twang\" up North. Dabney proceeds to discuss the history of the dialect, explores the role of the rice plantations, and sheds light on the West Africa connection. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/inside-the-food-folklore-and-art-of-lowcountry-cooking.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/inside-the-food-folklore-and-art-of-lowcountry-cooking.jpg\" alt=\"inside the food, folklore, and art of lowcountry cooking\" title=\"inside the food, folklore, and art of lowcountry cooking\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15308\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>The inside pages of The Food, Folklore, and Art of Lowcountry Cooking\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I love about the book are the little interviews and profiles of real people discussing their towns, family histories, and connection to the Lowcountry. There is a true sense of pride and a love for place that is becoming rarer and rarer these days--something I certainly envy as a consistently transient, mostly urban dwelling gal with little lasting history in any one place. Much more narrative than traditional cookbook, this is a great read for folks who are interested in Southern culture, history, and language and how all three affect the foodways and traditions of the South. To be honest, I don't know that this is a book I would sit down and read cover to cover, but it is a nice one to pick up every so often and explore bit by bit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recipes, while quite varied, are split into logical categories such as Soups, Stews and Gumbos; The Glories of Chicken; and Wild Game in the Lowcountry. There are little tales to accompany each one, so you actually feel as though your great aunt is passing down an old church recipe or you're stumbling across your grandmother's accompanying notes. These traditional recipes have been served at church functions and picnics, and have graced many a casual wedding table. Each inclusion is almost more of a modern-day jewel or legend rather than your average run of the mill recipe. I'm so looking forward to trying the benne seed (sesame seed) biscuits, the different varieties of spoonbread, and their version of Southern banana pudding. But for now, for today, I need a drink. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/drink-ingredients.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/drink-ingredients.jpg\" alt=\"drink ingredients\" title=\"drink ingredients\" width=\"500\" height=\"339\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15309\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Gathering my ingredients\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are many great cocktail recipes in Dabney's book but most of them appear to be pretty darn sweet to me. With rather large quantities of grenadine, sugar, and peach brandy I can feel a hangover coming on already. But at the same time, there's something extremely likeable about old Southern drinks. You can almost see yourself sitting on a wide open front porch in the afternoon without a care in the world. So after reading through the history and stories behind each of the Southern cocktails in the book, I created my own version of a Southern Rum Punch with just a little less sugar, some bubbly water for a summery kick, and a few sliced limes. Enjoy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/sort-of-plantation-punch.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/sort-of-plantation-punch.jpg\" alt=\"sort of plantation punch\" title=\"sort of plantation punch\" width=\"500\" height=\"349\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15310\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Two glasses of Sort-of Plantation Punch on a Friday afternoon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sort-of Southern Punch\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Inspired by: The Food, Folklore, and Art of Lowcountry Cooking\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes:\u003c/em> 4 cocktails\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Ingredients\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n1 cup mango or pineapple juice, chilled\u003cbr>\n1 cup orange juice\u003cbr>\n1 1/2 cup dark rum\u003cbr>\nJuice from 2 limes (almost 1/4 cup)\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup sparkling water or club soda\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup brewed black tea\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Method:\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nMix all ingredients together in a pitcher.

I know I do it and I also know many others fall prey to thoughts of afternoon mint juleps, big willowy trees, and visions of a slower pace of life. Recently during one of my Craigslist property searches/obsessions, I ran across a little Craftsman house in Durham, North Carolina and fell in love. I called the realtor. I’ve never been to Durham and actually, I've never really been to the South (I hear Austin, TX doesn’t count). The house had sold. My coworkers rejoiced; they'd no longer have to listen to my sudden, out-of-left-field obsession with a town I'd never been to and a house I couldn't really afford. So here we are. Back to reality—and a great book by James Beard Cookbook of the Year winner, Joseph Dabney. The publisher contacted me to see if I'd be interested in checking it out, knowing that I have a fondness for Southern food and food history. After reading a brief description, I was sold. In \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Food-Folklore-Art-Lowcountry-Cooking/dp/1402230982\">The Food, Folklore and Art of Lowcountry Cooking\u003c/a>, Dabney takes readers on a tour of the various regions of the Southern Lowcountry including Charleston, Beaufort, and Savannah. In this tour, he offers traditional recipes, first-hand history and lore, and stories from long-time residents and high-end chefs alike. This is, I'm guessing, a truly representative swath of a part of the country I can't wait to visit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The book is organized into thematic chapters detailing the history of various cities and moving on to focus more specifically on infamous foods from the region like Hoppin' John, Goobers and Grits. The first chapter lays out the \"big picture\" and the mystique of the Lowcountry nicely. Dabney calls it \"a different world,\" and describes coming to Charleston for the first time in the 1950's and experiencing culture shock. Many of the homes were elegant, the gardens lush, and the locals spoke in a much different-sounding dialect than the oft-recognized \"twang\" up North. Dabney proceeds to discuss the history of the dialect, explores the role of the rice plantations, and sheds light on the West Africa connection. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/inside-the-food-folklore-and-art-of-lowcountry-cooking.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/inside-the-food-folklore-and-art-of-lowcountry-cooking.jpg\" alt=\"inside the food, folklore, and art of lowcountry cooking\" title=\"inside the food, folklore, and art of lowcountry cooking\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15308\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>The inside pages of The Food, Folklore, and Art of Lowcountry Cooking\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I love about the book are the little interviews and profiles of real people discussing their towns, family histories, and connection to the Lowcountry. There is a true sense of pride and a love for place that is becoming rarer and rarer these days--something I certainly envy as a consistently transient, mostly urban dwelling gal with little lasting history in any one place. Much more narrative than traditional cookbook, this is a great read for folks who are interested in Southern culture, history, and language and how all three affect the foodways and traditions of the South. To be honest, I don't know that this is a book I would sit down and read cover to cover, but it is a nice one to pick up every so often and explore bit by bit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recipes, while quite varied, are split into logical categories such as Soups, Stews and Gumbos; The Glories of Chicken; and Wild Game in the Lowcountry. There are little tales to accompany each one, so you actually feel as though your great aunt is passing down an old church recipe or you're stumbling across your grandmother's accompanying notes. These traditional recipes have been served at church functions and picnics, and have graced many a casual wedding table. Each inclusion is almost more of a modern-day jewel or legend rather than your average run of the mill recipe. I'm so looking forward to trying the benne seed (sesame seed) biscuits, the different varieties of spoonbread, and their version of Southern banana pudding. But for now, for today, I need a drink. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/drink-ingredients.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/07/drink-ingredients.jpg\" alt=\"drink ingredients\" title=\"drink ingredients\" width=\"500\" height=\"339\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15309\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Gathering my ingredients\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are many great cocktail recipes in Dabney's book but most of them appear to be pretty darn sweet to me. With rather large quantities of grenadine, sugar, and peach brandy I can feel a hangover coming on already. But at the same time, there's something extremely likeable about old Southern drinks. You can almost see yourself sitting on a wide open front porch in the afternoon without a care in the world. So after reading through the history and stories behind each of the Southern cocktails in the book, I created my own version of a Southern Rum Punch with just a little less sugar, some bubbly water for a summery kick, and a few sliced limes.

Biscuits and gravy, slow-smoked ribs, fried chicken, creamy potato salad, braised greens, key lime pie, and country ham with red-eye gravy. Now, I've been hearing about country ham for a good long while, but having grown up in Texas, which isn't really the South (but definitely shares many qualities), I had actually never tasted it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Country hams have a \u003ca href=\"http://whatscookingamerica.net/History/CountryHamHistory.htm\">long history\u003c/a> in the South. These traditional American hams are salt-cured, usually in a salt brine, which dries them out and preserves them (this is how succulent pig legs were preserved prior to refrigeration).

The first thing you need to do is to scrub the ham clean with a vegetable scrub brush and some warm water, it's best to do this in the sink. I recommend trying this prior to drinking. Although that did make for some interesting fun. There will likely be bits of mold here and there, but that's normal and nothing to worry about.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, find a big container. I find that a cooler works best. You want something large enough to submerge the entire ham. Lie the ham in the container and fully submerge it in cold water. The reason for doing this is to suck some of that salt out. Like I said above, these hams are salt-cured and very salty. And if you aren't used to it, like me, then it's best to soak your ham. Soak the ham for about 24 to 48 hours. Yep, you heard me right. And change the water as often as you can, maybe every 4 to 8 hours or so. There's no sense soaking it in salt water if you are trying to remove some of the salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once your ham is clean and soaked, remove it from the water, and put it in the largest stockpot or deep roasting pan you can find. Again, you want to submerge it. The largest pot we had was actually a canning pot and still the top of the bone stuck out, but that's fine, as long as the bulk of the ham is under water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fill the pot with enough water to cover the ham, cover the pot loosely with foil, and set it on the stovetop. Bring the water to a slow rolling boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to maintain the slow boil. Boil the ham for about 3 hours or so. You want it to come to about 140°F at the thickest part of the ham.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Preheat the oven to 400°F. Remove the ham from the pot and set in a large roasting pan or a rimmed baking sheet (you can double this up to make sure it's nice and sturdy). Use a sharp knife to trim as much fat from the ham as possible. There will likely be quite a bit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a bowl, stir together about 1/3 cup brown sugar with about 1 tablespoon grainy mustard until it's like a paste. Slather it all over the ham. With your hands. Don't be afraid. Bake the ham for about 15 minutes until the paste glazes the ham and it looks all bubbly and delicious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carve the ham using a very sharp knife, cutting the ham into the thinnest slices you can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Calhoun's Country Hams\u003cbr>219 South East Street\u003cbr>Culpeper, VA 22701\u003cbr>Toll-free 1-877-825-8319\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":null,"status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1205780106,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":18,"wordCount":950},"headData":{"title":"Country Ham 'n All the Fixins | KQED","description":"My dad grew up in West Virginia, and is a true lover of good 'ol Southern food.

My cousin Sheila hadn't been able to sleep the night after my grandmother died, so she got up at 4:30 in the morning and baked a pound cake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When we finally sat down to eat, we had three kinds of chicken (roasted, barbecued, and fried), deviled eggs, sandwiches, baked ham, yeast rolls, ham rolls, three kinds of potato salad, cole slaw, corn pudding, rice pilaf, broccoli casserole, asparagus casserole topped with Pringles (I kid you not), lasagna, baked beans, bread-and-butter pickles, and chicken salad. We all sat around in the living room with plates on our knees, sipping sweet tea, catching up with people we hadn't talked to in a year, complaining about the heat and humidity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were just as many desserts as anything else. Lemon chess pie, pecan pie, chocolate cake, the most marvelous chocolate fudge pie (it's basically gooey, nearly-cooked brownie batter in a flaky pie shell), pound cake, banana pudding.

He brought us some fried chicken one time and it was mighty good, but I don't know. Then you want to cook it in hot grease. You can use Crisco or you can use the liquid, it doesn't matter. We always used Crisco. But anyway, you want to cook it in enough hot grease to cover the chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Daddy called himself the Master Fryer, and Mother always said, 'I guess you are. All you do is stand there and fry it and I have to do all the rest of it and all the cleaning up.'

It's done when you can stick a fork in easily and no blood appears. Maybe 20 minutes, but watch it. Then just put it on a paper towel to drain.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Additional instructions:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>All measurements are approximate because you really only need enough to suit you. Cover the chicken in buttermilk for a few hours, up to overnight. Pat it good and dry, then salt and pepper it to taste and dredge in flour, shaking off the excess. Or, you can toss the flour in a paper bag, season it to your liking (cayenne adds a nice touch) and then toss the chicken parts in one by one. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Heat the Crisco about halfway up a cast iron skillet until it's melted and a small piece of bread bubbles and fries on contact. Then add the pieces, one or two at a time to prevent the oil from cooling down. Turn them after about 5-8 minutes, depending on size and type of meat; keep in mind dark meat needs longer to cook than white meat. Drain on a plate covered with paper towels and serve hot. Also good cold the next day.\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":null,"status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1190049600,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":20,"wordCount":1201},"headData":{"title":"A Moving Feast | KQED","description":"I flew to North Carolina last week for my grandmother's funeral.

Most of us crowded into the kitchen; some of us were hungry, some tried to help, but I think most of us just didn't know what else to do. My cousin Sheila hadn't been able to sleep the night after my grandmother died, so she got up at 4:30 in the morning and baked a pound cake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When we finally sat down to eat, we had three kinds of chicken (roasted, barbecued, and fried), deviled eggs, sandwiches, baked ham, yeast rolls, ham rolls, three kinds of potato salad, cole slaw, corn pudding, rice pilaf, broccoli casserole, asparagus casserole topped with Pringles (I kid you not), lasagna, baked beans, bread-and-butter pickles, and chicken salad. We all sat around in the living room with plates on our knees, sipping sweet tea, catching up with people we hadn't talked to in a year, complaining about the heat and humidity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were just as many desserts as anything else. Lemon chess pie, pecan pie, chocolate cake, the most marvelous chocolate fudge pie (it's basically gooey, nearly-cooked brownie batter in a flaky pie shell), pound cake, banana pudding. What we didn't eat, we wrapped back up and put out again for dinner that night, after the memorial service at the church, after I stood in the receiving line and met all the people who had fed us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Grandma's Fried Chicken\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>Serves 4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>1 whole chicken, cut into legs, thighs, breasts, and wings\u003cbr>buttermilk (optional)\u003cbr>flour\u003cbr>salt and pepper to taste\u003cbr>Crisco\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Method:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>In my grandmother's words: \"I'm not the fryer in the family,\" she started out by saying. \"That's Margaret [her sister]. But I've fried a lot of chicken. What you want to do is salt and pepper and flour the chicken. Teri [her cousin] says you should soak it in milk before you flour it. He brought us some fried chicken one time and it was mighty good, but I don't know. Then you want to cook it in hot grease. You can use Crisco or you can use the liquid, it doesn't matter. We always used Crisco. But anyway, you want to cook it in enough hot grease to cover the chicken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Daddy called himself the Master Fryer, and Mother always said, 'I guess you are. All you do is stand there and fry it and I have to do all the rest of it and all the cleaning up.' We had fried chicken every Sunday morning for breakfast with biscuits. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"But anyway. The smaller the chicken the better. It's done when you can stick a fork in easily and no blood appears. Maybe 20 minutes, but watch it. Then just put it on a paper towel to drain.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Additional instructions:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>All measurements are approximate because you really only need enough to suit you. Cover the chicken in buttermilk for a few hours, up to overnight. Pat it good and dry, then salt and pepper it to taste and dredge in flour, shaking off the excess. Or, you can toss the flour in a paper bag, season it to your liking (cayenne adds a nice touch) and then toss the chicken parts in one by one. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Heat the Crisco about halfway up a cast iron skillet until it's melted and a small piece of bread bubbles and fries on contact.
