Today, we are thrilled to welcome the talented chef and author, Food Network Star Kardea Brown Smith. Host Kathryn, had the privilege of speaking with Chef Kardea about her new cookbook Make Do with What You Have. Set to launch later this year, Kardea shares 100 delicious new and accessible recipes rooted in the legacy of her family and hometown of the Gullah Geechee Sea Islands off South Carolina’s coast. We dive into rich topics such as gaining strength from “struggle” meals, the historical impact of race on the culinary industry, and how to manifest your dreams through writing.
