SO glad that those of us who are gluten challenged donāt have to give up fave foods like spaghettiā¦.
a packet of Luigi Vitelli spaghetti made from corn flour my fab food influencer friend Jackie Gordon gave me to try once upon a time, i recall really enjoying it!ā¦
Below is a slide show of delicious pics of āGDHā Grandma Dendyās Homemade (as in Spaghetti Sauce). ā¦

When i was Hosting āSavory & Sweet Food History & Cultureā I had a wonderful conversation with entrepreneur Lindsey Dendy, Principal of the LinDen Group on how she harnessed her African American Grandmotherās culinary legacy āand legendary spaghetti sauce ā and was able to bring it all to market in modern America (no small feat). As a food historian focused on the myriad and undeniable Black influences on American foodways I couldnāt help but connect the dots from the bigger picture cultural context (i.e. how Black people, women in particular, were the āCooks of the Nationā for centuries for every type of food imaginable) to the Dendy familyās personal story. Itās a wonderful convo that seamlessly weaves facts from the past with the present ā highlights of which will be part of the Black History Month video series Iām compiling for yaāll. So please show some love and support on my PATREON so i actually have the resources to get it done and thanks in advance!
