Taste of southern comfort: Blackened salmon and greens recipe Chef Kevin Mitchell joins Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager on TODAY to share some southern comfort. Chef Mitchell prepares black-eyed peas and greens alongside blackened salmon for a delicious meal that brings back memories of cooking with his grandma in the kitchen as a child.
Did you catch Chef Kevin Mitchell's early segment on the Today Show? Fried catfish and grits! @southernstaples #ttcalumni #educateaccelerateinspire
Don’t forgot to watch the Today Show tomorrow morning! Kevin Mitchell
The Culinary Institute of Charleston Chef Kevin Mitchell will share a taste of the Lowcountry with the rest of the country during live “Today” show cooking demonstrations on Thursday, Feb. 24.
Chef Mitchell will cook in the “Today” show’s kitchen in New York City during both “Today” and “Today with Hoda & Jenna.” During the 8 a.m. hour on “Today,” Mitchell will cook fish and grits with tomato gravy. During the 10 a.m. hour on “Today with Hoda & Jenna,” he’ll cook blackened salmon with curried black-eyed peas and collards.
The NBC show’s crew recently visited the Charleston area and filmed Chef Mitchell at Joseph Fields Farm on Johns Island and in one of his classes in the Culinary Institute’s kitchens. “Today” show producers are interested in Mitchell’s work as both a culinarian and a historian, and how he connects South Carolina cuisine to the people who helped create it.
Chef Mitchell and co-author David Shields recently released a story-driven cookbook, “Taste the State - South Carolina’s Signature Foods, Recipes, and Their Stories,” that provides the rich history behind South Carolina’s signature dishes and their distinctive ingredients.
