Step into the soulful heart of the South with Echoes of the Gullah Table, a stunning 72-page full-color cookbook that preserves the rich, flavorful traditions of the Gullah Geechee people-one recipe, one story, and one generation at a time. Written by native author Marcy Anderson Johannes, raised Creekside on historic Sol Legare Road on James Island, this book is a heartfelt tribute to her family's enduring roots, faith, and food.

At the center of this culinary journey is the matriarch who inspired it all-Grandmother Mattie Walker-whose hands and heart nourished her family and community. Through her recipes, stories, and wisdom, the echoes of the Gullah table still speak to us today.

Inside this book, you'll find:

¿¿¿¿ Authentic Gullah recipes passed down through generations-flavored with love and lived experience

¿¿¿¿ Bonus full-color photo pages featuring Grandmother Mattie, the author, and cherished family memories

¿¿¿¿ Creekside stories of life, tradition, and survival on James Island

¿ Cultural and historical reflections on Gullah life, Charleston roots, and the strength of Black Southern families

And introducing a powerful new voice in the Gullah culinary legacy-Chef Marquise, author's cousin, native of James Island with African American and Spanish heritage. He learned to cook soulful dishes in his mother's kitchen and traditional Spanish recipes in his Abuela's Cocina.
