Regional American Cuisine: Southeastern Farmlands *In-Person* *NEW*

When colonists originally settled in our nation’s southeast, their goal was to farm. Originally, in the 15th century the word, plantation, was a verb meaning “to plant.” Over time, our nation’s first settlers created an early capitalist venture that would dominate the culture of the South; a way of life that was rife with inequality from the time it was established. These early settlers may have brought their Old World crops to the region, but it was the skills and sensibilities of their enslaved labor that makes this region’s defining dishes distinctive. Tonight, we will make several recipes that celebrate a special kind of Southern cooking.Instructor: Sheri Boyden
