Wholesale Our South: Black Food Through My Lens

Chef Ashleigh Shanti takes readers on a culinary journey through the microregions of the American South specific to her upbringing and life. Her unique perspective as a Black, queer, female chef, combined with her familial roots, has led her to become an expert in this unexplored subject. In this book, Ashleigh explores five regions; Backcountry (Black Appalachia South), Lowcountry (Gullah-Geechee), Midlands (The Black Agricultual Mecca), Lowlands (the dishes from Ashleigh's Coastal Virginia childhood), and Homeland (the food she cooks today). Ashleigh invites everyone to have a seat at her table, with the hope that her recipes expose you to dishes you've never tried before, or you find dishes that remind you of home. Hardcover Book with Printed Laminated Cover; 8 X 10 inches; 320 pages.
