Comments Off on Bryant Terry Black-Eyed Peas Dish For New Year’s Prosperity
Bryant Terry told NPR that there’s an African-American tradition of eating black-eyed peas around New Year’s meant to bring wealth and prosperity for the upcoming year.
‘The lore is that the black-eyed peas actually represent copper or pennies. And so along with that, one typically will have a green dish such as collards, mustards, turnips, chard, kale or cabbage, and the leafy green dish actually represents money. And then with that, one might have some cornbread, which represents gold. You eat it on New Year’s, and it’s supposed to usher in a very prosperous and abundant year.”
Terry has a dish featuring the symbols for both coins and dollars, his Black-Eyed Peas in Garlic-Ginger-Braised Mustard Greens.

Comments Off on Kathy Freston To “NPR” On Making Favorite Old Foods Vegan
Kathy Freston has a two-part interview series with NPR on veganism, farming and healthier eating.
In part one of her chat with host Renee Montagne, Freston explains how she easily makes vegan versions of the favorite foods she grew up eating.
‘I grew up in Doraville, Georgia and I ate barbecued ribs and chicken fried steak, and all kinds of cheesy grits, you know, and I never even thought twice about it,’ Freston said. ‘I think that food ties us to our community and our traditions, and it’s the thing that makes us feel good and connected.
