About this item

Cross Creek Cookery is the classic cookbook that blends Southern cooking, authentic old Florida recipes, and the culinary heritage of the rural South into one deliciously warm celebration of down-home cooking and Southern hospitality. First published in 1942, Cross Creek Cookery was compiled by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings at the request of readers who wanted to recreate the authentic traditional Florida recipes from Cross Creek—her famous memoir that captured the story of rural Southern living. Lovers of old-fashioned, down-home cooking will treasure the recipes for Grits, Hush-Puppies, Florida Fried Fish, Orange Fluff, and the iconic Utterly Deadly Southern Pecan Pie. For the more adventuresome palate, there are such regional delights as Minorcan Gopher Stew, Coot Surprise, Alligator-Tail Steak, Mayhaw Jelly, and Chef Huston's Cream of Peanut Soup. Spiced with delightful anecdotes and stories, Cross Creek Cookery guides the reader through the rich culinary heritage of the deep South with a deep appreciation for cooking rituals, Southern hospitality, and the joy of eating. This classic cookbook is more than a collection of Southern cuisine—it’s a vivid window into a world not so long ago, filled with Old Florida charm, warmth, and unforgettable meals.
