Remember the victims of Katrina and the recent tornados. Give generously to those organizations still helping in the Gulf region.
February 20th, It’s Fat Tuesday and my thoughts turn to Zydeco music and gumbo, etouffe, and everything Cajun or Low Country. Both cuisines are based on fresh seafood and local ingredients being combined into delicious one pot wonders that came as a result of the blending of French, African and to lesser extent in Low Country cooking Spanish influences. A Frogmore Stew is as good as any Cajun seafood boil. If you interested in Low Country cuisine may I suggest http://www.chefrick.com/. I have tried a number of recipes from this site and all have been excellent. My team at my “real job” is celebrating Fat Tuesday, so I’ll be making Gumbo Ya-Ya from a recipe I found at http://southernfood.about.com/od/gumborecipes/r/bl00109d.htm. If you would like to get more southern recipes this site has a whole section dedicated to it and the fine art of BBQ. If I remember and I rarely do I’ll try to take pictures.
