This is truly a regional cookbook filled with Southern Louisiana home cooking at its best. I actually have my mother-in-law’s copy of this cookbook that was gifted to her in 1987. When I married a man from New Orleans I discovered that his family had very different regional dishes than I had grown up with in south Texas. This cookbook gave me an intimate glimpse into the home cooking of southern Louisianians. I often refer to this cookbook for simple starters, seafood and sweets.
