Some of you know, I’m writing my first cookbook From the Roota to the Toota! And it’s time to take my work on the road, so i need yall to RT and share this:

I’m looking to interview and learn from (aka I WANT TO COME TO YO HOOD) Black folk in the Deep South (GA, SC, NC, LA, MS, AL, TN, and some of FL) who are keeping culinary traditions alive in their area. Do you or your family hunt? Do you know someone who hunts, forages, and/or fishes and cooks their dishes using allll parts of the catch? Ya auntie make fire chitlins? Unc makes his own sausage? Granny makes rutabagas like her granny taught her? Your community have a juju/medicine man? You eat souse, hogshead cheese, and pudding? My book is a celebration of Black southern food ways and i need y’all’s help to get this information down before we literally lose recipes- the more country, the better! If this is you or someone you know, feel free to respond here, or dm me and I’ll give you my email address! 💪🏽💜

As a Black woman talking about Black foodways, this means more than I can say. To have the NUMBER ONE FOOD PODCAST IN THE COUNTRY ON APPLE is beyond exciting. And we’re just getting started @whetstoneradio . I can’t wait for y’all to hear more.

The latest Finding Edna Lewis drops tomorrow on @myVPM with guest @thizzg843 - this was the most difficult one to film, but it’s the one I’m proudest of.

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

I’m so happy to share that I’ve written the forward for the 200th anniversary edition of The Virginia House-wife. It was humbling to write about the contributions of enslaved people to American food, and I can’t wait for folks to get their hands on it! https://t.co/bDFFf9Nzld

The newest episode of Finding Edna Lewis is now out-hope you’ll check it out!

A new episode of Finding Edna Lewis drops tomorrow on @myVPM and I can’t tell you how excited I was to watch Mashama Bailey cook in the kitchen of @thegreysavannah. There were several moments while filming this documentary that felt unreal, and this was definitely one of them.

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

So excited for this Friday’s episode of Finding Edna Lewis on @myVPM-I traveled to The Grey to talk to Mashama Bailey about Miss Lewis’s influence on her food and menu, and it really was a dream. I’ve always admired Chef Bailey, and being able to taste her food was incredible.

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

I was thrilled to get my hands on Ashleigh Shanti’s new cookbook, Our South, and even more thrilled to see recipes for fried crab and yock. Chef Shanti is from VA Beach, and growing up only 15 minutes away, and these are the foods of my youth. So moved to see them included.

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

This weekend I had the absolute joy to film our final scenes of Finding Edna Lewis with the incomparable Leni Sorensen. It was a day filled with cooking historic recipes, talking about how Miss Lewis was an inspiration, and having an incredible meal where we celebrated her life.

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

I just received my advance copy of When Southern Women Cook and I’m over the moon to have contributed to this book alongside women that I admire so much. Very grateful to @morganmbolling and @tonitiptonmartin for including my writing on Fannie Lou Hamer in this incredible work!

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

So happy to finally share episode three on @myVPM! This was the first episode where I really begun to dive beneath the top layer of things I knew about Edna Lewis, and completely changed how I approached this journey (as you’ll see in upcoming episodes).

Tomorrow’s episode of Finding Edna Lewis is special-I interviewed author Sara Franklin on what it was like for Edna Lewis to be professional chef in the 1950s. Hope you’ll tune in tomorrow afternoon!

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

Two more days until the full episode of Finding Edna Lewis premieres on VPM-loved talking to chef Adrienne Cheatham about the similarities between French and Southern cooking while making lunch in her kitchen.

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

Thrilled to share a trailer from the newest episode of Finding Edna Lewis, out this Friday on @myVPM. Chef Adrienne Cheatham and I got to go to the same farmer’s market in Brooklyn that Edna Lewis went to on possibly the hottest day of the year.

[Deb Freeman @audiophilegirl]

Day 2 of filming with @thizzg843 at Middleton Place was challenging. Walking the same footsteps as Edna Lewis did while she lived and worked on a plantation was sobering.

Amethyst-I wouldn’t have gotten through that shoot without you being there. I’m so grateful you were there.
