Soul Food, Recipes, Cooking Tips & Tutorials and more...
 When you think of soul food, it invokes memories of a table piled high with good home cooking on Sunday afternoons and holidays with your family gathered around a table - talking, laughing, arguing, and just having a plain old fashioned good time being together. Soul food goes hand in hand with that warm feeling of comfort you get when you think about those times. Slaves families would gather after long hard days in the fields or at the house for meals that nourished the body and soul. And it was during these times that family history was told and the slaves socialized. And so this is how soul food got its origins - with the slaves gathering aound and fellowshipping over their "make do" meals. So soul food got its origins in the Southern slave states, which is why it is often also called southern cooking. But for African Americans, it is more than just the food, it is the sense of belonging and the comfort of fellowship shared over a good meal, and not just the traditional southern cuisine. This is why you will find traditional soul food as well as many other no so traditional dishes here. Because soul food is more than just food, it is the feeling that goes along with the food.
