Food for thought, Scotian-style
From The Coast:
“Scotian” food is hearty, delicious and made with soul. As the earliest
black settlers to Nova Scotia, our ancestors overcame unmeasurable
hardships to survive and thrive. Along with our resourcefulness we also
brought our knack for southern cooking, or what is commonly known as
“soul food,” and meshed it with what the land and water had to offer.
Root vegetables, fresh and dried/cured meats and fish, legumes, greens
and cabbage were familiar foods shared in African Nova Scotian families.
