- Summary:
- Concerned about her own health, Randall turned to her daughter for help. Together they overhauled the way they cook and eat, translating recipes and traditions handed down by generations of black women into easy, affordable, and healthful-- yet still indulgent-- dishes. In exploring their family history, they also explore the often fraught relationship African-American women have had with food, and forge a powerful new way forward that honors their cultural and culinary heritage.
