James Beard Award-winning chef Nina Compton shares recipes that tell the story of her thrilling culinary journey from St. Lucia to Jamaica, Miami, and New Orleans, and celebrate the diverse African heritage that threads these cuisines together.

Growing up in St. Lucia, a small island in the Eastern Caribbean, chef Nina Compton developed a strong sense of community through cooking and food. As she traveled and worked in restaurants abroad, she was eager to learn, improvise, and innovate by doing what transplants like herself do best: Bring the best of home with them wherever they go. Kwéyòl / Creole explores the cuisines and pivotal locales that form the basis of Nina’s unique culinary perspective: from her birthplace in St. Lucia, to Jamaica where her view of Caribbean cuisines broadened, to Miami where she was immersed in Afro-Latin influences and continued to hone her cooking style, and finally New Orleans, her adopted city whose Creole cuisine brought her home in new ways.

In St. Lucia, when they say “Creole,” they don’t mean French-influenced. The St. Lucian Creole, or Kwéyol, celebrates a diverse African heritage, beautifully reflected in the 100 recipes presented here. The dishes are both transportive and irresistible, each telling a story of its multi-faceted history and influences: steamed snapper with a peppery ginger sauce, slow-cooked curried goat, green fig and saltfish, coconut-braised collard greens, Creole-stewed conch, the countless possibilities of the beloved plantain. In these pages, the weather is warm and tropical, and the vibe is easygoing, just like the places Nina’s lived. The dishes are full of flavor and the mood is chill.

Full of stunning travel photography and anchored by Nina’s singular culinary vision, Kwéyòl / Creole celebrates the rich history of where she comes from, while forging something that feels a little new, a little hers. And now, with this book, a little yours, too.

The best athletic socks you can buy!
Size: X-Large, Color: White/Graphite (6-pairs)
These are the very best athletic socks you can buy period. I have had several pairs that are over 10 years old and still in wearable condition. We are talking several hundred washes. They are super comfortable and no show. I can't overstate how great these socks are.

Repurchased many times. My husband's "everything" socks!
Size: X-Large, Color: White/Graphite (6-pairs)
My husband always asks for a new pack of these UA socks every birthday and Christmas. He wears them with all types of shoes and for everything he does: daily work, weekend casual, and athletics. They're thick, super soft, and durable, but yet still breathable--even in the heat of summer. It takes months and months of constant wear and washings before they develop holes in the heel. Great socks!

Great socks
Size: X-Large, Color: White/Graphite (6-pairs)
I really like these socks. Feel good, long lasting, high quality. Fortunately they are not as high at the ankle as they look in the picture.
