Beans, Greens, & Sweet Georgia
Peaches by Damon Lee Fowler
Although everyone recognizes the importance of fruits in the South's
cooking, especially as reflected in the region's rich, sweet desserts, the role of vegetables in
southern cooking is less appreciated. Fowler has rectified that oversight with a substantive
contribution to the record of American cooking. Fowler's southern vegetables are not just messes of
greens stewed in "pot likker." He prefers gussied-up grits baked with lots of pungent pecorino romano
cheese. His custard pie tilts to the exotic when perfumed with fresh mangoes. Sweet-potato pie evolves
into rich sweet-potato ice cream studded with bits of pecan pralines. Most unusual is Fowler's
mayonnaise-enriched tomato sorbet served in avocado halves. This inventive updating of traditional
southern cooking may strike some as surrender to alien Yankee tastes, but Fowler succeeds in breathing
new life into America's best regional cuisine. |
