The Lee Bros. Simple Fresh Southern: Knockout Dishes with Down-Home Flavor Description
Product DescriptionFrom two South Carolina-bred brothers comes the ground-breaking cookbook for new Southern cooking: The Lee Bros. Simple, Fresh, Southern. Matt and Ted Lee were raised on long-simmered greens, slow-smoked meats, and deep-fried everything. But after years of traveling as journalists and with farm fresh foods more available than ever, Matt and Ted have combined the old with the new, infusing family recipes with bright flavors. Using crisp produce, lighter cooking methods, and surprising combinations, these are recipes to make any night of the week. From The Lee Bros. Simple Fresh Southern: Ginger Lemonade If we were musicians, we’d write a torch song about ginger and lemon, a match made in heaven. And though we’ve been drinking fresh lemonade as long as we can remember (Coca-Cola was taboo at 83 East Bay Street), we never thought to make a cold fresh-ginger lemonade until recently. Now we’re making up for lost time. This drink is easy to make, super-refreshing, and happens to be a kick-ass mixer with bourbon and tequila, so those of you who are of age should mix up the Lemon Gingerita variation that follows.--Matt Lee and Ted Lee 3. Fill each highball or pint glass two-thirds of the way to the rim with ice, and pour the ginger lemonade over it. Garnish with a slice of the steeped ginger.
Directions (Serves 8) 2. Strain the concentrate into a large pitcher (it will keep for 5 days, covered, in the refrigerator), reserving the ginger slices. Add 3 cups cold water and the lemon juice to the pitcher, and sweeten to taste with honey. Set the pitcher in the refrigerator to cool further; store the ginger slices in the refrigerator as well. (The lemonade and ginger slices will keep in the refrigerator for 5 days.Costumer Reviews

Reviews for The Lee Bros. Simple Fresh Southern: Knockout Dishes with Down-Home Flavor (Hardcover) I got this cookbook for my birthday in January (I had it in my Amazon wish list) but I didn't cook out of it until I went to visit family in Naples, FL. Made the Shrimp Creole with fresh Gulf shrimp over corn grits and the green beans with orange segments. Dynamite. Very fresh, very "healthy" style with B I G flavor, and especially good with Southeast ingredients. While here I got a chance to read the cookbook section on vegetables and side dishes and I found lots of things that will work for me on the South Beach Diet. I'm going to search out their first cookbook as well.
This is "Southern Cooking" with all the GOOD parts - the fresh seafood and vegetables in particular - without the overhead of huge amounts of fat and sugar. Don't let the "Southern" let you evoke Paula Deen's definition of Southern cooking and put you off...
Reviews for The Lee Bros. Simple Fresh Southern: Knockout Dishes with Down-Home Flavor (Hardcover) I made the pork tenderloin with maderia and fig gravy for dinner and discovered a new masterpiece for my receipe repretoire! This is a fabulously flavorful dish that is easy to prepare and cooks to perfection.
Reviews for The Lee Bros. Simple Fresh Southern: Knockout Dishes with Down-Home Flavor (Hardcover) I bought this book for my boyfriend's dad for Christmas, and had the pleasure of sampling two of the recipes: Oyster soup and collards with poblanos and chorizo. The recipes were simple, fast and absolutely delicious. He also had rave reviews about the simple roasted chicken.
The thing that caught my eye about this book were the beautiful pictures and the simplicity of the recipes. I like the lifestyle that the book promotes---it's that easy, laid-back, southern attitude that brings simple ingredients together to create something that explodes with flavor in your mouth and makes you say: "Why didn't I think of doing it that way?"
I hope to sample many more of the recipes, and look forward to seeing future cookbooks by the Lee brothers.
