Soul food
en.wikipedia.org
// 23 May, 2007
Soul Food is an American cuisine, a selection of foods, typically associated with African Americans of the Southern United States. As a result, some African Americans use methods of cooking soul food different from those employed by their grandparents, including using more healthful alternatives for frying (liquid vegetable oil or canola oil) and cooking and stewing using smoked turkey instead of pork. Critics have argued that the attempt to make soul food healthier has the undesirable effect of not being as flavourful as the traditional recipes. More → Related EntriesHealthy Eating Diet
