Critics Review
Cornflakes make a cameo, crushed into applesauce meatballs, in Floridian Bobby Hicks’s Retro Recipes. A food influencer and erstwhile cooking show competitor, Hicks casts his eye to the oft-maligned fare of mid-century America: ‘the good, the bad, and the gelatin, ’ as he writes. Our entree, then, is chicken à la Maryland, and if the marriages of bourbon and coconut, gin and collards, and crab and cereal haven’t whetted your appetite, how about fried chicken topped with sliced fried bananas and bacon batons? (Add peanut butter, and Elvis rises from the grave.) Quash that side-eye; the dish once charmed Auguste Escoffier and made Titanic’s first-class menu.–Jonathan Miles “Garden&Gun”
