This episode is a continuation of the book reviews from episode 4, season1.  In this episode I give Edna Lewis’s formula for Making Baking Powder (without Aluminum).    I review Jennifer McLagan’s book, FAT.   We talk about cooking with fat.  We Discuss making homemade butter, which is covered in McLagans book.   I mention two more books by McLagan, Bitter, and Bones.  We discuss Chicory, and more specifically Radicchio which I explain how I cook it to make it less bitter.  I review an illustrated children’s Book titled, Mr. Okra.  Buttermilk thinks it’s a great  book to prepare children for a field trip to the Farmers Market, and I agree.  Olivia covers her review of, The Southern Foodways Alliance, Community Cookbook, and The Pat Conroy’s Cookbook, Recipes of My Life.  Buttermilk mentions that we are working on the Cornbread & Buttermilk, Valentine episode, so stay tuned in.  We thank Edward Phillips for the very southern slide guitar intro music performed on his resonator guitar.  You can find Edward Phillips on YouTube, @edwardphillipsroots.
