Sixth-generation Mississippian Hugh Hollowell offers a collection of essays reminding us of how memory, food, and love are all intertwined.
He takes us with him to The Church of the Diner, teaches us how to properly season a cast-iron skillet, and gives us the recipe for the cornbread of his childhood. We get invited to watch Aunt Monty make biscuits, get to see the ways his community cared for their struggling family, and we are introduced to Aunt Louise, who served her dogs coffee every morning. But through it all, we are reminded that food is an expression of love, and sometimes the only way people who loved us were capable of showing it.
More than just a collection of stories and recipes, Food Is Love is an invitation to reflect on the ways food can be a physical manifestation of love for the special people in our lives, and a reminder to hold onto the practices that make it possible.
