What I didn’t realize as a child that I do now is how deeply complex soul food is to the cultural and social heritage of Black Americans, but that changed once I was introduced to Juneteenth through a community-led parade.
I created this dream Juneteenth menu with signature dishes from some of my favorite Black chefs to inspire you to learn more about their lives, and add some new cookbooks to your collection.
This year things are a bit different because of social distancing, but this group of foodies is determined to carry on the holiday’s legacy at any cost.
