Did y'all say Gullah?

Growing up, Bridgette Frazier knew that if her grandmother was cooking a pot of gumbo, she’d be stuck in the kitchen all day with her, regrettably not playing with her cousins outside. Frazier chopped onions and peppers from the garden and tasted the gumbo over the course of several hours as okra, ham hocks and pigtails transformed it to proper stew. “Don’t rush no pot,” Frazier recalls her grandmother, affectionately known as Ma Daisy, telling her. “Good food takes time to come together.” In 2015, with that immersive, elder-enforced Gullah culinary training, Frazier opened a food truck and catering company, @chefbseatz, selling dishes like fried shrimp, whiting and okra, plus hamburgers and wings. And next fall, in downtown Bluffton, the chef, activist and town councilwoman will christen Ma Daisy’s Porch, a complex with a brick-and-mortar @chefbseatz, bakery, retail space for Black businesses and a Gullah heritage center.
