Cover of the Taste the State cookbook

Part food history, part cookbook, and part compendium of somewhat-bizarre bygone recipes, Taste the State is a deep dive into South Carolina’s foodways, complete with dozens of recipes from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and a few contemporary versions sprinkled throughout. While some may not inspire you to revive centuries-old traditions, they provide an unparalleled understanding of the state’s food history and how some of the dishes we enjoy today have evolved with the times.
