Publishers Text

With Kelis's diverse background - her mother is half Chinese, half Puerto Rican and her father is African-American - her foodis a melting pot of Southern soul food, Caribbean and Asian cuisine. She also experiments with spices and exotic seasonings, influenced by her travels while supporting her albums. My Life on a Plate features a range of recipes and flavours, from American comfort food classics such as Jerk Ribs with Spicy Brown Sugar Rub and Peach Blackberry Buckle to the more inspiring Jumbo Shrimp with Tomato Fricassee & Strawberries and Goat's Cheese Ice Cream, plus her signature sauces such as Mango Mustard Sauce and Ginger Sesame Glaze (with Shrimp). Kelis says, 'As much as my music is who I am, so is my cooking. Food has become such a way of life, sort of like what you listen to, who you're with, what you're wearing. My character comes through in my cooking.'
