A very delicious side. It was very spicy which is nice with some nice mild, creamy or lemony dishes. read more >

The Encyclopedia of Cajun & Creole Cuisine

By John D. Folse
Chef John Folse & Company Publishing - 2004

Excellent! It is the definitive cookbook for Cajun and Creole cuisine from basics to culinary treats. The history of the food culture and glossary of Louisiana products are wonderful to read and reference. The recipes have perfect harmony of all ingredients and it does not fall into the trap of over-spicing commonly found in Louisiana cookbooks. John Folse is a genius in the kitchen and it comes through beautifully on the page.
