James Beard Award\u2013nominated chef\u00a0<\/span>Edward Lee is the author of Smoke & Pickles<\/strong><\/em>; chef\/owner of 610 Magnolia<\/strong>, MilkWood<\/strong>, and\u00a0Whiskey Dry<\/strong> in Louisville, Kentucky<\/strong>; and culinary director of Succotash<\/strong> in National Harbor,\u00a0Maryland, and Penn Quarter, Washington, DC. He appears frequently in print and on television,\u00a0including earning an Emmy nomination for his role in the Emmy Award-winning series The\u00a0Mind of a Chef<\/strong><\/em>. Most recently, he wrote and hosted the feature documentary Fermented<\/strong><\/em>. He lives\u00a0in Louisville and Washington, DC.\u00a0<\/span>His new book, Buttermilk Graffiti<\/strong><\/em>,<\/span>\u00a0tells the story of a new American culinary\u00a0landscape in 16 personal and thought-provoking narratives and 40 recipes.\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

American food is the story of mash-ups. Immigrants arrive, cultures\u00a0collide, and out of the push-pull come exciting new dishes and flavors.\u00a0But for Edward Lee, who, like Anthony Bourdain<\/strong> or Gabrielle Hamilton<\/strong>,\u00a0is as much a writer as he is a chef, that first surprising bite is just the\u00a0beginning. What about the people behind the food? What about the\u00a0traditions, the innovations, the memories?<\/span><\/p>\n

A natural-born storyteller, Lee decided to hit the road and spent two years uncovering fascinating\u00a0narratives from every corner of the country. There\u2019s a Cambodian<\/strong> couple in Lowell,\u00a0Massachusetts, and their efforts to recreate the flavors of their lost country. A Uyghur caf\u00e9<\/strong> in\u00a0New York\u2019s Brighton Beach serves a noodle soup that seems so very familiar and yet so very\u00a0exotic\u2014one unexpected ingredient opens a window onto an entirely unique culture. A beignet\u00a0from Caf\u00e9 du Monde<\/strong> in New Orleans, as potent as Proust\u2019s madeleine, inspires a narrative that\u00a0tunnels through time, back to the first Creole cooks, then forward to a Korean rice-flour\u00a0hoedduck and a beignet dusted with matcha.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sixteen adventures, sixteen vibrant new chapters in the great evolving story of American cuisine.\u00a0And 40 recipes, created by Lee, that bring these new dishes into our own kitchens.<\/span><\/p>\n
