About the Author

Kathy Starr was born in the Mississippi Delta where her family has lived since the mid-1800s. After seventeen years in nursing, she decided it was time to utilize her talent for cooking, a talent cultivated by her grandmother. She has, since 1981, owned and operated her own catering business. She culled this book of "dash" recipes from her grandmother and her own memories of Mississippi Delta cooking.
