The Twisted Soul Cookbook: Modern Soul Food with Global Flavors

"Once a flight attendant, now an Atlanta-based chef, Deborah VanTrece takes a cosmopolitan approach to the soul food you thought you knew – for example smothered pork chops, but draped in a sage-infused tomato gravy. Or that old chicken standby Country Captain, but paired with scallion-peanut rice noodles. And is there any good reason you shouldn’t braise your short ribs in Manischewitz? There is not! Whether she’s crusting trout in pumpkin seeds or turning crab cakes into meat loaf, VanTrece’s mission is to redefine soul cuisine for the now. If she can go there, so can you."
