Praise for La Cuisine Cajun: " His recipes are clearly thought out and remain loyal to their unwritten origins. Of all recent Cajun cookbooks, this one, I think, pretty much stays the closest to authentic Cajun cuisine." - -Simple CookingFrom the introduction to The 100 Greatest Cajun Recipes: "What this book has, in my opinion, are the recipes that every Cajun must know to go through life." --Chef Jude W. TheriotChef Jude W. Theriot shares his list of core recipes that define the soul of Cajun cooking. Along the way he shares secrets, hints, and personal asides in his lagniappe, or"something extra," sections. These helpful sections include freezer suggestions and, as in the case of Pain Perdu, explain how the dish got its name. In recounting the history of the Cajuns from their Canadian beginnings through their migration south to Louisiana, Theriot conveys the spirit and resolve of a proud community. To know this spirit is to know what drives them to cook with such passion. From boiled crawfish, crabmeat au gratin, and shrimp gumbo to chicken i touffi e, Chef Theriot has distilled the essence of Cajun cooking with his signature easy-to-follow, hearty recipes.
