Nowadays, soul food is often associated with Southern cuisine. Even with its long history, there are unfortunately not as many soul food cookbooks as we would like. As a byproduct of slavery, soul food recipes were often passed on orally, as it was illegal in many states for slaves to learn to read or write.
Hailing from Katy, Texas, Chef Jeffrey's passion and dedication to old school comfort cooking extend to his cooking channel: Old School Soul Food. He hopes to inspire others to cook food that will bring back memories of their childhood. While not all of us grew up on old school cooking, with Chef Jeffrey's channel, it will be easy to catch up.
