Cheryl Day's Treasury of Southern Baking

Shop Notes: If you're looking for a solid cookbook with some serious Southern comfort food, then this is your ticket to happiness.  The recipes are well written and she reveals many of the secrets to modern baking in a simple and straightforward manner. But, where this book really excels is how Ms. Day celebrates the talents and influence of the generations of smart southern black women that preceded her, the gifts inherent in handwritten family recipe cards, and the ability of flavors and textures to anchor a person to their cultural past while simultaneously providing sustenance for the future.  There is a warm confidence and gratitude infused throughout her writing and recipes that make this book feel a bit different from her previous work and I am all for it.  It's just a wonderful read. From the Publisher: "The definitive book on Southern baking . . . a master class in making memorable baked goods."Bon AppetitNamed a Best Cookbook of Fall 2021 by EaterNamed a Top 10 Most Anticipat
