Book Description
In this mouth-watering collection, Amy Rogers has created a culinary portrait of her part of the South. This is no ordinary cookbook, though it boasts plenty of old-fashioned recipes from the Carolina mountains to the Lowcountry. Hungry for Home showcases the best of traditional Southern cooking and storytelling, along with recipes brought here from around the world. Some of the Carolinas' most beloved writers are contributors. Josephine Humphreys describes how to catch and cook blue crabs. Jill McCorkle shares a recipe for fried apple pies, and Lee Smith acquaints us with "Lady Food." Even former Carolinian James Taylor passes along his recipe for baked beans. Rogers, an accomplished journalist, profiles in her revealing essays some of the regions' best cooks. She introduces us to farm families, immigrants, and new Southerners -- everyday people who add flavor and variety to life in the Carolinas. What's more, dozens of these home cooks share recipes and vignettes written in their own words. Their stories are humorous, poignant, sometimes surprising, and always memorable. Book jacket.

Book Description
We wait in lines around the block for scoops of cookie dough. We photograph every meal. We visit selfie performance spaces and leave lucrative jobs to become farmers and craft brewers. Why? What are we really hungry for? In Hungry, Eve Turow-Paul provides a guided tour through the stranger corners of today's global food and lifestyle culture. How are 21st-century innovations and pressures are redefining people's needs and desires? How does "foodie" culture, along with other lifestyle trends, provide an answer to our rising rates of stress, loneliness, anxiety, and depression? Weaving together evolutionary psychology and sociology with captivating investigative reporting from around the world, Turow-Paul reveals the modern hungers—physical, spiritual, and emotional—that are driving today's top trends: • The connection between the "death" of the cereal industry and access to work email on our smartphones • How posting images of our dinners on social media both fulfills and feeds our hunger for human connection in an increasingly isolated world • The ways "diet tribes" and boutique fitness gyms substitute for organized religion • How access to round-the-clock news relates to the blowback against GMO foods • Wellness retreats, astrology, plant parenthood, and other methods of easing modern anxiety • Why "eating local" might be the key to solving not just climate change, but our current global sense of disconnection From gluten-free and Paleo diets to meal kit subscriptions, and from mukbang broadcast jockeys to craft beer, Hungry deepens our understanding of why we do what we do, and helps us find greater purpose and joy in today's technology-altered world.
