What is Soul Food?
Although this style of cooking has taken on many different identities, its roots are grounded in the good ol’ south! Soul food is a style of cooking that was born from the enslaved people having to get creative and cook what they had available to them. This’s part of the reason it’s called soul food—soul food dishes are always made with an abundance of flavor and a lot of love.
