Posted: Sep 03, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

Soul food recipes have grown into the one of the fastest growing cuisines today.  Perhaps because of the comfort food feeling it gives. For example, the robust flavors,  the in your face seasonings or the decadent desserts. Whatever the reason, traditional soul food recipes continue to stand the test of time, despite the criticisms for its high  calorie, sodium and fat content  recipes.

Like all classic cuisines, soul food continues to adapt to the changing needs of the consumer. Now with more consumers demanding healthier recipes and ingredients,  the recipes have started to adapt to this growing consumer need.  As a result more soul food restaurants, books and websites are seeing and acknowledging this fast growing trend.

Now you can find tasty soul food recipes that contain no artery clogging fat back, ham hocks or bacon as a seasoning for vegetables. Now you'll see recipes calling for smoked turkey, which contain up to 95% less fat than ham hocks, fat back or bacon.  You can even find recipes that call for less or even  no table salt to flavor recipes. Instead you'll find recipes calling for kosher or sea salt, which contain less sodium content.


These new changes have won applause from medical experts, health officials as well as consumers.  The biggest hurdle the soul food recipes movement have had to overcome is winning hard boiled traditional soul food lovers over.  Many were concerned changing from traditional seasoning to healthier seasonings would change the taste of the soul food recipes. But taste continues to convince more traditional soul food lovers they can eat healthier without sacrificing the taste they've grown accustomed to.

Soul food recipes continue to change for the better - and the healthier, as the industry continues to raise the bar on tastier recipes without the health risks of the past.  The healthier changes come from reduced fat content,  lower sodium and less cholesterol content.

Many health experts find these new changes excellent choices.  More consumers are coming back to this popular southern cuisine who previously left it for health concerns.  The biggest challenge was making sure the  taste and satisfaction soul food is known for remained. One of the assumptions when thinking healthier is less taste.  But thanks to creative cooks,  healthier and tastier is the result of the new changes taking place with today's soul food recipes.

Lighter and more natural seasonings is the order of the day that has made soul food recipes more health friendly. We'll continue to keep you informed of more healthier changes that take place in the future. Stay tuned.
