Crunk is a Southern slang term that means to get excited. Keepin it real and makin it fun, vegan blogger Bianca Phillips adopted the Southern slang term to convey passion and pride for her heritage and the down-home food she was raised on.
By incorporating country staples (beans, corn, and fresh produce) that have been the basis of Southern cooking for generations, Bianca offers no-frills, no-nonsense soul food dishes with a wholesome twist. These family classics, minus the meat, eggs, and dairy products, help keep traditional Southern foodways alive while allowing vegans, vegetarians, and anyone who cares about healthful eating to enjoy this satisfying down-home fare.
From cheese-free Ro*Tel dip and country-fried tempeh steak to eggplant jambalaya and smoky stewed okra and tomatoes, Cookin Crunk offers plenty in the way of classic Southern comfort food. Theres also a bounty of sweet treats that includes cobblers, bread pudding, dark chocolate bourbon pecan pie, and peanut butter and banana Elvis cupcakes.

Contents Preface When I launched Vegan Crunk my vegan food blog in late - photo 4 Contents Preface When I launched Vegan Crunk my vegan food blog in late 2007 I wanted - photo 5Preface When I launched Vegan Crunk my vegan food blog in late 2007 I wanted - photo 6 Preface When I launched Vegan Crunk, my vegan food blog, in late 2007, I wanted a name that conveyed both my passion for veganism and my Southern roots. Crunk, a Southern slang term that means to get excited (and also describes a style of raw rap music from Memphis, Tennessee), immediately came to mind.

I must admit that I get pretty crunk about cooking simple recipes handed down by generations of great Southern cooks. Crunk is about passion. Its about having pride in where you come from. Its about creating no-frills, no-nonsense dishes that warm the soul and keep rich Southern traditions alive. Thats exactly what I aim to do in this book. I grew up in northeast Arkansas and transplanted myself about sixty miles south to Memphis only weeks after finishing college at Arkansas State University.

Ive never lived more than an hour from the banks of the muddy Mississippi Riverthe iconic waterway that defines the deep-down Dirty South. For the record, the South isnt really all that dirty. Its certainly no dirtier than any other place in the world. But the phrase Dirty South doesnt have much to do with dirt in the physical form. It has more to do with keepin it real. Southerners never stray far from tradition.

We tend to do what our mamas did and what our grandmamas did before them. To live in the Dirty South means drinking sweet tea on wraparound porches. It means getting lost in the beautiful song of cicadas on humid summer nights. It means crumblin homemade cornbread into a lovingly prepared bowl of soup beans, or drippin watermelon juice down your chin as you take the first bite of a ripe summer melon. First on my Vegan Crunk blog and now in this book, I aim to keep the rich and passionate cooking culture of the Dirty South alive by removing the meat, eggs, and dairy products from classic family recipes that have been handed down for generations. Being vegan shouldnt preclude anyone from enjoying soul food.

In fact, because the recipes in this book dont contain meat and other animal products, eating them will enrich your souland save animals lives in the process. Acknowledgments This book wouldnt have been possible without the support - photo 7Acknowledgments This book wouldnt have been possible without the support - photo 8 Acknowledgments This book wouldnt have been possible without the support, recipe contributions, and inspiration from two amazingly strong womenDelories Phillips (my mama) and Ruth Phillips (my granny). I began following my mama around in the kitchen when I was just a little girl, and I owe my culinary inclination to her influence. I used to tease her when she read cookbooks at night the way most people read novels. Now I do the same thing. When I went vegetarian at age fourteen and vegan at age twenty-four, my mama patiently tweaked her family recipes to be free of meat, eggs, and dairy.

Theres no kinder or gentler soul in the world than my mama. Then theres Granny (my daddys mama). Through her delicious, soul-warming country cookin, she taught me to appreciate the rich food culture of my Southern roots. When Granny heard I was working on a Southern vegan cookbook, she quickly learned how to create delicious dairy-free, egg-free desserts and entres from her repertoire of family recipes. Not only did she spend countless hours creating recipes for this book, she also suggested plenty of Southern dishes and meals for me to veganize. Special gratitude is owed to David Phillips (my daddy) for being a relentless supporter of my cookbook project and the Vegan Crunk blog that inspired this book; to my me-maw (my mamas mama), who, despite her disdain for cooking, was an appreciative taste tester at many family meals; and to my pa (my daddys father), who sampled most all of Grannys veganized creations (probably without even realizing the dishes were vegan).

Also, thanks to my partner, Paul Dillard, a relentless promoter, for pushing my blog and cookbook project to everyone who would listen; to my best friend, Sheridan Essman, who went vegetarian (and later vegan) after reading about animal suffering and subsequently tested numerous recipes on her friends and coworkers; to Stephanie Roy, the best vegan baker in the world, for testing recipes and offering baking advice when my experiments failed; and to my friend Wes, an old-school Southern cook, who introduced me to hominy and fried cucumbers. Finally, Id like to thank the talented testers and blogger friends whose advice was critical in perfecting the recipes contained in these pages: Alison, Breedale, Carol, Carrie, Chelsea, Colette, Courtney, Deborah, Happyface Jessy, Jennifer Molica, Jenn Lynskey, Karen Lucchesi, Laura from Peace By Pastries, Leslie Coleman, Lindsay In-galls, Megan Duke, Miss V, Nora Kuby, Paula, Pink-Haired Cyn, Radioactive Vegan, River Bounds, Ryan, Trinity, VeggieLow, and Wetland Susie. Introduction For generations meat and other animal products have characterized - photo 9 Introduction For generations, meat and other animal products have characterized the cuisine of the American South. Besides serving up main courses of fried chicken, pulled pork barbecue, and crawfish, old-time Southern cooks often flavor their veggies with bacon fat and lard. Ugh. But you wont find any ham hocks in these collard greens.
