Since it opened in 1990, Magnolias has been called "perhaps the city's most celebrated restaurant," by Southern Living and "the place to dine" by Charleston's Post & Courier. Known for his trend-setting contemporary Southern cooking, Donald Barickman has made the restaurant a favorite for locals and tourists alike. In this long-awaited cookbook, he shares his acclaimed recipes. The recipes in this book reflect Chef Barickman's interpretation of traditional Charleston and Lowcountry dishes, combined with other Southern regional favorites. Says Barickman: "Here you'll find a sampling of the many culinary creations which over the years have become most popular with our patrons. When in Charleston, I invite you to visit Magnolias to enjoy our ever-changing menu and the wonderful fresh local products which come with each season."
This review is from: Magnolias Southern Cuisine [Hardcover]Great book! The first real cookbook to come from any of the Charleston area Restaurants. Beautiful photographs and makes a great gift, especially for those who have eaten or have been to the famous Magnolias....
This review is from: Magnolias Southern Cuisine [Hardcover]This prominent Charleston chef provides us with some of his recipes which have made his restaurant a landmark.For most of us who have not cooked with grits and greens and blackened this and that, this book teaches us to use these ingredients with style and flash.Particularly enjoyed seeing him prepare Magnolias' Spicy Shrimp, Sausage and Tasso Gravy over Creamy White Grits on TV. This attracted me to the book. Getting the grits from his recommended source along with the tasso made the dish hopefully turn out close to the restaurant. This is good, comfort food!Also have enjoyed an unusual dessert dish which is elegant, delicious and relatively easy to prepare: Magnolias' Baked Creams with Orange Custard Sauce.This is delightful source to turn to when the event calls for some downhome, good basic Southern food with style and flair. Attractively done with good color photos and excellent writing guiding one through the recipes with sources, etc....
This review is from: Magnolias Southern Cuisine [Hardcover]I purchased two copies of this book (one for myself and one for a friend) while dining at Magnolia's in Charleston. We were so impressed with the food that we had to have the recipe for the grits with shrimp dish that enthralled my husband (who is not a Southerner). While there we ran into others who are equally impressed. One famous journalist detours frequently just for the food at Magnolia's. Recipes are well presented, easy to follow and delicious. When calling for special ingredients, e.g., tasso, the author provides sources. For anyone who loves to cook and wants to evoke Southern style in a new and fresh way, this book will serve all your needs....
