The South Carolina chef Kardea Brown grew up across the meals and flavors of residence cooking on the Sea Islands. “After I noticed my mom on the range, basting and tasting—particularly on Sundays—I may sense, whilst just a little woman, that she was in her ingredient,” she writes in her new cookbook, The Way Home: A Celebration of Sea Islands Food and Family with over 100 Recipes. “Pure-born meals lover that I’m, I knew Ma’s smothered turkey wings, fried hen, shrimp and grits, and different dishes—the divine and scrumptious outcomes of her hours-long meditations—have been properly well worth the wait. I liked to look at and study.” Right here, she shares the candy and savory Sea Island Wings, good for sport day or an extended weekend.
