Edna Regina Lewis (April 13, 1916 – February 13, 2006)[1] was a renowned American chef, teacher, and author who helped refine the American view of Southern cooking.[2][3] She championed the use of fresh, in season ingredients and characterized Southern food as fried chicken (pan-, not deep-fried), pork, and fresh vegetables – most especially greens. She wrote and co-wrote four books which covered Southern cooking and life in a small community of freed slaves and their descendants.[4]
