State Plate

South Carolina

Entertainer Taylor Hicks tastes his way across South Carolina, in search of the state’s most iconic foods. First, he sings for his supper, simmering up some she-crab soup. Next, Taylor heads to the coast, for the locally loved, Low Country boil. Then, he learns how to harvest and bundle some hearty collard greens. Later, Taylor tastes tea with an expert and gets a history lesson on the southern staple. Finally, for dessert, he bakes up a crunchy sesame cookie, called a Benne wafer. It’s a heaping helping of community and comfort, as we taste the Palmetto State’s most celebrated foods. South Carolina Get ready to chow down southern-style in The Palmetto State.
