Cooking with Liz
Author Visit and Food Demonstration
Saturday, July 13
11:00am - 12:00pm
Soulful, mouthwatering flavor. Uncover the stories behind Southern cooking. Registration required.
Join Elizabeth Williams, president and founder of the Southern Food and Beverage Museum, for a book talk on her recent cookbook, The Southern Food and Beverage Museum Cookbook, coauthored with Maddie Hayes. She will share stories and recipes particular to each southern state, created by chefs who feel the connection of home, and demonstrate how to make the summer version of broccoli soup (tasting samples will be provided). She’ll also share how to make the recipe into a hearty winter soup.
Elizabeth has a weekly podcast, Tip of the Tongue, about the food, drink, and culture of New Orleans and is the author of several books and articles about foodways in New Orleans and the South.
Book signings will follow. Click the button to register or call (225) 647-3955.
