Publisher's Synopsis
For over 60 decades, Cindy Jordan has been creating magic in her kitchen, transforming simple ingredients into memorable meals that bring people together around her table.
"What's Cindy Cooking?" captures the heart and soul of home cooking-where every recipe tells a story and every dish is made with love. The vivid details of her childhood: Her memories of New England boiled dinners under the grapevine trellis and her granddaddy's outdoor barbecues bring the scenes to life. I could almost taste the seafood and smell the biscuits in the pie pan with bacon grease. The cross-cultural connection: The blend of Portuguese and Texan culinary traditions creates a fascinating and unique perspective. It's wonderful how she honors both her parents' heritage and their influence on her passion for cooking. The warmth of family gatherings: Her kitchen is the heart of Cindys home and the joy she takes in sharing meals with her loved ones truly radiates throughout her story. That image of her as a "food detective," tracking down recipes, adds a delightful touch! "Cindy's cooking reminds us what sharing food is all about-bringing joy, creating memories, and feeding both body and soul." For over 65 years Cindy has been feeding five generations of her family. Her passion for cooking has never wavered. She believes good food brings people together and hopes these recipes will create as many happy memories in your home as they have in hers.
