Before Deen’s sparkly blues, pearly whites, and colorful ways with butter brought her national fame on the Food Network, she was known to Georgians as the proprietress of Savannah’s fiercely popular home-cooking restaurant, The Lady & Sons.
This is her first cookbook, a snapshot of the heart and ambition she put into opening her venture. Ritz crackers, canned fruit, and packaged mixes appear copiously in these recipes, but, let’s face it, they’ve found a permanent and prominent place in the Southern culinary lexicon. Pass the pineapple casserole, please?
