Stories I Only Tell My Friends - Rob Lowe - A Short Summary and Review

The Cooking Gene - Michael W. Twitty - A Short Summary and Review

 


A short summary of The Cooking Gene:

A chef explores his history and heritage through soul food.

My favorite Michael W. Twitty quote from the book:

"Food is often a necessary vehicle between one's ancestors or the spiritual forces that guide their destiny."


Questions to ponder while reading the book:

Do you know the history of your people?

Do you explore cuisine outside your standard fare?

My review of The Cooking Gene:

A great look into the evolution of soul food.

A great look into the evolution of ethnic relations.

A great look into the history of a person.
