Emily Meggett, born in 1932 on Edisto Island, South Carolina, was a renowned cook who never used recipes. Her best-selling cookbook, "Gullah Geechee Home Cooking: Recipes from the Matriarch of Edisto Island," explores the unique food of the coastal South. It offers insight into the true story of the region's development and the significance of Southern cuisine. In the book's introduction, Emily expressed her desire for future generations to understand the cultural and historical importance of cooking.
