- Best Soul Food Dishes. What to eat in Southern United States?
Soul food - a cuisine that fuses West Africa, Western Europe and the Americas - is no stranger to controversy. Though the label floated around black culture at least a decade earlier, "soul food" had its breakout moment in the 1960s when Black Power advocates declared their independence from the narrative forced upon African Americans by white hegemony. Food was included in that ambitious project. Soul food was presented to the world as a cuisine wholly distinct from southern food, even though they shared common ingredients, culinary techniques, and history. Today we're going to tell you about the most iconic soul food dishes.

Awesome Channel thanks for sharing
I miss Louisiana. I moved to North Dakota a few weeks ago, this list made me feel very nostalgic.
Oh, my fried green tomatoes, fried okra, greens, yum, yum, .
A funny story. Growing up I was raised by my mom who was full blood Cherokee. My dad was a Caucasian and lived out in Los Angeles California and was a truck driver. When I was 18 I went out to spend time with my dad and travel the countryside. One time we stopped in Salt Lake City and had a one night layover. We were parked nearby the agency and dad said lets walk down the block a little ways there's a nice cafeteria we can eat supper at. So we walked down to it and dad opened the door and stepped inside and then he hollered "oh sh!+" and turned around right fast and shoved me back out the door and said we don't want Soul Food. I looked at the wording on the door and seen the wording "Soul Food" on the door and then I noticed several black people sitting at tables inside. And I asked "What's soul food?" My dad replied "that's black people food".
Well I had never heard the term soul food before and for years, probably a decade or more, I always wondered what soul food was. Then one day I was in this big buffet type of restaurant that had all kinds of food. There was American food over in this section, chinese food over in that section, Mexican in that section, Italian over here, and at the very end was a sign that said "SOUL FOOD".
I thought finally I'm going to get to see what soul food is. So i walked over and my bottom jaw dropped down with disbelief. I looked it all over and I told myself "what! This is the same stuff my momma cooked while I was growing up". I couldn't believe it, my momma cooked soul food. Then I got to thinking "Is there something my momma never told me".
Ain’t it good luv it 😊👍🏼🥬SOULFood
Love it all.
I’m from the south I can think about 20 more but you did good. But I love green bean and potatoes with neck bones or beef sausage.
Ribs, Mac n cheese, green beans cook with smoked turkey, hot water cornbread!
That is just food that a lot of us, grew up on!
🎯🎯🎯
thanks for sharing
Mmmmmmmmgood
Yummy
No bread 🍞 crumbs on Mac and cheese please
Glad to see this
Very nice video
Sugar or honey cornbread is cake. Stop the madness. Further pumpkin pie and stuffing has never been southern, we do cornbread dressing.
I'm cooking some now. Smothered steak, candied sweets,cornbread,turnip greens,Mac and cheese. Its delicious.
I just cooked my first pot of collard greens. I tell you it took me a minute to get them right with the seasonings and tenderness. I see they taste better on the 2nd or 3rd day too. Seems like I cooked them greens almost 3 hours to get them where I wanted them. At some point I over seasoned them. Had to pour the salty pot likka off and add some plain water to regulate the seasoning. Then they were just right. I will get them right the first time next time.
Mac and cheese has to be number 1 for me ngl
#5 ❤️
Wow, I didn't know my grandma was southern or black. This is a revelation!
Yts wouldn't know souls or good food if it smacked you upside the head don't kill me 💀😂
That's because you ain't from the south. This is how every southern white grandma would cook . But y'all like to think we're all super different. This is all southern culture not black culture or white culture. We have similar values, beliefs, and cusine. Just too many dumb mfers around that think someone is inherently different because of their skin@@sublimnl1
Good for you and yo old ass grandma
O lawd 😂
I love cornbread but being a diabetic I have to watch my carb count. However, there is a recipe where almond flour is used, and the taste is pretty close to traditional cornbread. But without the carbs.
Alrite-now 😺
You blacks are the best. Not just your food but your entire culture, it's no wonder people around the world emulate you. 😎
The bes video about food recipe
I love black people food
Very sketchy comment
Yeah it’s called Southern cuisine but because black people cook it, it gets a different name. 🙄
Black people created these dishes and the whites copied & claimed it, typical of colonizers
@@atlantissurvivor1689Cajun and Creole cooking are also Southern but they get they're own name too. 🤷♂️
The best fried okra that I enjoyed, was at Churches Chicken🥳
I didn't know that there is a difference between Southern Food and Soul Food.
Ummmm! I'm looking so forward to Soul cooking on a regular specifically for my Soul-mate's health & enjoyment. Also, to teach him about the importance of healthy foods for good health throughout his entire life. 😁
My mom never made banana pudding with whip cream everything from scratch
Mmmmm.... Frie Chimkin 🐔 🍗
Edit: I liked my own comment
I will send this to my friend to see if this is true👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Fried 🐥 is king
Mustard Greens taste better than Collards in my opinion ❤❤❤
I grew up on Soul Food but mines from Hillbilly and some White Trash relatives living in the Ozarks of Missouri & Arkansas.
😂😂😂😂
👱🏻♂️s don't have souls so therefore whatever food your 👹 hillbilly family cooked for you WASN'T "SOUL" food. Thanks
God bless you and yours 🙏🏼🙏🏼
😂😂😂😂
Red .beans,rice, fried chicken.
ASE 👑
How u forget sweet potato’s like bro
These ai chat gpt UA-cam videos are gonna usher in the apocalypse
What is the difference between soul food and southern food?
Soul food is bad for you I’m sure but it’s my favorite food
The soul food was around during american slavery, long before the 1960's.
I Would Like to Believe the Commentator is Not Being Rude & Disrespectful On Purpose but it is Very Insensitive to say African Slaves, it is African Enslaved People or African Unpaid Workers;
Also take note that Europeans & Asians have been enslaved to.
👊🏽❤🖤💚
Fried green tomatoes?!?? Been black 44 years, that's a first for me.....and wtf is hopping john!?!??
He forgot one bruh
African American Food**
If you're going to make political statements regarding food, then don't "culturally appropriate" food that was part of an entire culture's experience and not just a segment of it. Several of your "most iconic soul food dishes" are just straight up Southern cooking.
@hortondlfn1994 this is NOT a political statement--the Southern cooking you're speaking of was initially cooked by BLACK slaves. And over time, it was incorporated into the greater SOUTHERN cuisine, primarily because Southern Blacks cooked it. The food of the South was so well LIKED, Southern whites were taught to cook it !. Up until the 1980s, Southern Blacks cooked in MOST of the white restaurants in the South, as well as most middle-class and well-to-do Southern homes of the South.
@@MrNikoncameraman Nope. The greater percentage of Southerners did not own slaves - especially those who would cook for them. There were more than enough poverty-stricken whites who knew how to make do with what was available, such as corn meal, ground hominy, etc.
@@hortondlfn1994 I DID NOT state that MOST white families had slaves--but I do KNOW that MOST Southern white restaurants, along with middle and elite white families HAD black cooks until the 80s !
@@MrNikoncameramanThe good restaurants still do!
Foods created by enslaved Africans. I don’t know why others have a problem understanding & acknowledging that fact. Do your own research. Just because white southerners took on & copies dishes from others doesn’t make it theirs.
So fried chicken came from Ireland? GTFOH.
That's his story......
Anyone noticed this is AI generated? 😅
Soul food is AMERICAN food 🤔.... all ingredients are indigenous to AMERICA 🤷🏿♂️
Not true! Okra, cowpeas, watermelon, rice, peanuts, millet, Lima/kidney beans are just a few items brought over with enslaved Africans.
@@destinyforever Good point. I agree! With the exception of peanuts, lima beans, and kidney beans though, since they are thought to have originated in the Americas thousands of years before 1492.
*black american*
@@namelssssnake9466 AMERICAN, no need for black 🙄..... because we are the only AMERICANS 😳.... everybody else in this country is a UNITED STATES citizen.
@@derrickcobb5360 there is absolutely a need, cause it aint your culture, how about giving credit where due, last time i checked white americans didnt invent anything of culture value, you can leave ours out, the southern aspect is only an umbrella so it doesn’t apply here either, cause not all southern food is soul food
Macaroni and cheese is Italian, fried chicken is Scottish
We make it better so step aside...
@@kofibabone725 1st off that’s irrelevant, the subject was if it was soul food or not, but now that you mention it Italian macaroni in Napoli Italy is hands down the best in the world, not even close, and personally chinese fried chicken is way better
It irritates me when folks don't know what they're talking about. The ONLY thing on that list that is actually soul food is "hoppin' John". All the rest are basic Southern food. Real soul food is things like ox tails, chitterlings and okra and tomato stew. Fried chicken is NOT soul food. Macaroni and cheese is NOT soul food. Greens are NOT soul food. We ALL eat that down here. To be genuine soul food, it must be a dish that was INVENTED by Southern black folks. Only that is REAL soul food.
honestly. Its strange how most soul food people mention is just normal southern food, except it's cooked by black people. the more distinct dishes should be considered first.
Amen@@m_2tb
@@m_2tbblack people were the ones cooking ALL THE FOOD DURING SLAVERY YOU COMPLETE NUMBSKULLS these recipes are OURS. get over it.
Then you don’t know the history of soul food which is as coped by white Southerners. I’d suggest you read Michael W. Twitty’s books. He’s a culinary historian that has researched Black American food contributions to the world. Most of soul food was brought up ver during slavery.
In the last few years I've noticed white shoppers in the grocery stores with pigs feet in their cart 😂😂😂
