The New Southern Garden Cookbook

The Southern Foodways Alliance Community Cookbook

Edited by Sara Roahen and John T. Edge

As a coauthor of the book, I tested and edited all of the recipes. The book has gotten some great reviews, including this article from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

The SFA Web site has more information about the book. It's available at your favorite bookseller.

The SFA Community Cookbook won a Gourmand award as one of the world's best cookbooks for 2010. See the Gourmand International Web site for the complete list of winners. The book was also a finalist for the IACP 2011 Cookbook Awards.
