Deep South Dining

The James Beard Foundation's mission is to celebrate, support and elevate the people behind America's food culture. And once again, Mississippi is being recognized as a leader in that culture. Today Malcolm White & Carol Palmer talk with James Beard Foundation Award semi-finalists, Chef Hunter Evans from the restaurant Elvie's and Sofia Mohammed from Sambou's African Kitchen.

Now the new year is upon us and just like the changing of the calendar, the latest food trends of the year are here to tease your tastebuds in 2023. But unlike changing fads, tried and true flavors like Stamps Super Burgers, who have been serving some of the best burgers in Jackson for decades, seem to just be getting better with time. Third-generation owner, Phil Stamps II, joins the show to talk about the restaurant's delicious history with hosts Java Chatman, Carol Palmer and Joe Sherman. Email the show: food@mpbonline.org.

With each change of the calendar there is a chance for a fresh start, and new chapters in your life, in and out of your kitchen. To start the year off right, Malcolm White & Carol Palmer talk about creating new, good kitchen habits, how to make meal prep easier, and what food trends they'll be giving a try in 2023.
