Tried the Turducken this year. I was very disappointed. The bird doesn't stay together like the photos you see. After it's cooked, you don't know to slice or scoop out the bird. There was very little turkey meat on the outside and the inside had more rice than duck or sausage. Plus, it was dry. There were no juices when I cooked it. Luckily, we also cooked a traditional turkey which fed everyone. After all said and done, after $110, the Turducken was stuffing. I will never buy again.

There's nothing like walking into a restaurant, and feeling like your going to a friend's for dinner. Mara greets you as you walk in the first of two very small and cozy dinning areas. Sometimes you'll see her husband and daughter helping out and the waitresses are always super friendly and helpful. The menu includes Cajun Style Seafood, BBQ & Southern Comfort Food. For the more adventurous, the fried gator bites are marinated in Cajun spice, crunchy and tender, if you've never had them, i'll say give'em a try. It's sorta like a cross between fish and chicken. Like the gator bites, the green ... Read Full Story

Justin Wilson is a familiar name in the cookbook world. Avid collectors will know the name--it is synonomous with Louisiana Cajun cooking. Justin Wilson's Homegrown Louisiana Cookbook and Justin Wilson Gourmet and Gourmand are often available in used bookstores and sometimes can be found at a flea market. I have seen these books several times over during my cookbook hunting days. Twice before, I have had a signed Justin Wilson cookbook. They normally go for about double or a bit more than double the price of an unsigned used copy--$25 - $35. About Justin Wilson Justin Wilson was lived from 1914-2001. He was born ... Read Full Story

NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana - Cajun chef Paul Prudhomme was shot...but amazingly the bullet did no damage. All that extra padding (FAT) finally paid off! Prudhomme was cooking (DUH) at a golf course when he felt something hit his arm. That something was a .22 caliber bullet! It didn't even penetrate his skin! Police had originally classified the incident as a shooting, but then deemed it a simple complaint. They say a .22 caliber bullet can travel almost two miles, so they may never know who fired the shot. story is HERE Read Full Story

With Mardi Gras festivities officially underway in New Orleans on Feb. 24, it seems only fitting that we let the good times roll with a better understanding of Creole and Cajun food. The spicy delights of both cuisines are finding their way into my current cookbook project, which is creating a family cookbook collection of regional American foods. The last time I was in New Orleans (or Nawlins, Nola, N’orluns, if you prefer), I attended a wedding. It was some time ago, and I managed to sneak away from the pre-nuptial activities one morning to have breakfast at Brennan’s . It is still the ... Read Full Story

Gumbo History A peek into a pot of gumbo is a glance into the rich history of Louisiana. The ingredients and cooking techniques involved come from a remarkable array of cultures and traditions--all of which have combined over the centuries to create a uniquely American story. Cajun or Creole? Creoles descended from the wealthy French and Spanish colonists who settled in southern Louisiana. "Creole" also includes the African and Caribbean heritage of the region. Creole cuisine was born in upper-class households and still carries the reputation of being more refined and fancy, and of using more expensive ingredients, than Cajun cooking. Cajuns are the ...

More fun than Chef Clifton dumping slime-a-gookin’ eggs on Dinah Shore’s head! Emeril Lagasse: Well I think that stadium ballpark food has made a huge movement. Just like Las Vegas did 15 years ago. Fifteen years ago, guys at the MGM figured out, “You know what? We know how to do a U2 concert. We know how to do a bull fight. We can do room service for 5,000 rooms, but were not restaurateurs.” So, they were the first ones really on The Strip...

I put about 6 or 8 shrimp in the gumbo early along with the sausage to give it more of the shrimp flavor. If you're concerned about fat content, prepare the gumbo a little in advance and skim excess fat off the cooled soup.Image ©2009 Diana Rattray, licensed to About.com, Inc.Sausage and Shrimp Gumbo originally appeared on About.com Southern Food on Tuesday, October 27th, 2009 at 16:58:07.Permalink | Comment | Email this

It is hard to believe that the Cajun classic maque choux has taken so long to arrive in the Desperation Dinners test kitchen. After all, one of our favorite challenges is to take a traditional recipe and desperize it for busy cooks. But maque choux, a savory vegetable stew, stretches five minutes longer than our usual 20-minute limit, so we kept putting it off.
