This cookbook is the best of the best concerning southern cooking. Many of these recipes have been handed down from generation to generation. For example, sweet potato pie, candy yams, old fashion red velvet cake, homemade ice cream, and cornbread dressing/stuffing, just naming a few. Another unique thing about this cookbook is that it gives you step by step, with very clear instructions, about each recipe. Many of these recipes can be viewed on my YouTube Channel.
