Fried chicken and sweet potato pie

A couple of weeks ago, I featured a cookbook called A Taste of Country Cooking in our Cookbook of the Day column. Written by Edna Lewis, it is one of the definitive works on classic Southern cooking out there. That post spurred filmmaker Bailey Barash to comment in order to let us know that she produced a 21 minute documentary about Miss Lewis.

I've taken the time to watch the documentary and I'm posting about it now because it's far too good to let it just hang out in the comments. You can watch it on Gourmet Magazine's website or on Georgia Public Broadcasting's website. Thanks Bailey, for letting us know about your wonderful film!

The history of war, as told through food

When I first spotted this over at the Epi-Log, I thought, "Oh fun, a little video clip with food playing out a battle." But then I started watching and was instantly transfixed. Directed by Stefan Nadelman, this is a thoroughly planned and cleverly conceived film short film about the history of war on this planet over the last 60+ years. The foods are carefully chosen to represent countries and ethnicities (the United States is played by a cast of hamburgers and fries). It runs a little over five minutes long, but it is definitely worth watching.

Tip of the Day

The turkey turned out perfectly, but the gravy's a different story. Avoid botching the one recipe that guests pour over their entire Thanksgiving plates with these quick fixes.
