Anne Byrn was born and raised in Nashville and, though she calls Tennessee home, her career has taken her all across the South as she’s written about the people who define this region’s extraordinary cuisine. For 15 years, she was the food editor at the Atlanta Journal Constitution, where she interviewed legends like Julia Child and Nathalie Dupree, and you may also know her as the Cake Mix Doctor, a name she coined as the author of a series of bestselling cookbooks that demystify baking. Now she has a new cookbook called Baking in the American South: 200 Recipes and Their Untold Stories, which is undoubtedly her most ambitious to date.
Sid talks to Anne about some of her favorite recipes from the book, why there’s so much debate around the right way to make cornbread, what she learned about cooking from her Mom,  and how President Lyndon Johnson’s cook helped change the course of history.
