Bourbon Pecan Pie

November 21, 2022 by George Graham 16 Comments

Bourbon Pecan Pie

With its deep dark syrup set in a custard base, the smoky bourbon and molasses bring flavor to the scent of toasted pecans in this iconic Bourbon Pecan Pie. I was recently asked what the most popular sweet dessert in Louisiana is, and as usual, I began to complicate the answer with questions of my…

Cane-Brined Roast Turkey

November 14, 2022 by George Graham 15 Comments

Cane-Brined Roast Turkey

I love turkey. It is dependable, versatile, affordable, and delicious cooked in so many great Cajun and Creole interpretations. But for many cooks, a turkey sandwich is about as close as they get to the bird all year long. And anxiety sets in as the calendar rolls around to September, October, November, and finally the…

Catfish Courtbouillon

October 17, 2022 by George Graham 87 Comments

Catfish Courtbouillon

My Cajun recipe for Catfish Courtbouillon uses a pungent seafood stock (I make mine from dried shrimp) and the addition of a couple of spoonfuls of dark roux. Rather than the red gravy Creole version, in this Cajun recipe for courtbouillon I use a light hand on the tomatoes favoring canned diced tomatoes rather than…

Smoked Green Onion Sausage and Creole Red Onions featuring Savoie’s Sausage

Smoked Green Onion Sausage and Creole Red Onions featuring Savoie’s Sausage

There is an area just west of Lafayette, Louisiana that is known for its German heritage. Roberts Cove is at the center of it, and it is home to a long lineage of German immigrants who settled the Acadiana prairie in 1880.  This was a little over a century after the French Acadians found their…

Herbed Potato Salad

August 22, 2022 by George Graham 1 Comment

Herbed Potato Salad

Fresh herbs from my garden shine in this creative take on a popular summertime side dish–my Herbed Potato Salad. And from my trial-and-error experience, marinating overnight is essential for deep flavors to penetrate the potatoes. Granted, I love a traditional Southern potato salad with its creamy mayonnaise base. Everyone has a favorite recipe that’s a…

Peach Muscadine Sangria

August 15, 2022 by George Graham 3 Comments

Peach Muscadine Sangria

Poolside afternoons in the heat of summer are just begging for a fresh, fruity cocktail–ice-cold with just a hint of fragrant sweetness.  I usually revert to a pitcher of margaritas or mojitos, but lately I’ve been thinking a lot about sangria; a recipe for Peach Muscadine Sangria to be exact. I’ll admit it: Sangria is…

Cajun-Fried Catfish Bánh Mì

August 8, 2022 by George Graham 3 Comments

Cajun-Fried Catfish Bánh Mì

For obvious reason, here in South Louisiana a bánh mì sandwich is referred to as a Vietnamese po’boy. Built upon a similar French bread loaf, it doesn’t take a great stretch of imagination to see the similarities in the two sandwiches. But delving deeper, the two have even more in common than just bread.  And…

Kale Salad with Sweet Dijon Vinaigrette

July 25, 2022 by George Graham Leave a Comment

Kale Salad with Sweet Dijon Vinaigrette

Beautifully bitter kale takes on a bright sweetness with an overnight marination in my flavor-infused vinaigrette. And when dressed with fruit, cheese, and nuts, this Kale Salad with Sweet Dijon Vinaigrette could be the perfect summertime salad. “Too tough, too bitter, overbearing,” these are the complaints I often hear about this sometimes maligned green. But…

Poached Eggs over Fried Green Tomatoes with Crabmeat Hollandaise and Gouda Grits

Rise and shine: It’s perfectly poached eggs oozing liquid sunshine all over two crispy cornmeal-battered fried green tomatoes topped off with a glorious crabmeat-infused hollandaise, and all served up with a bowl of creamy Gouda grits. It’s weekend brunch in Acadiana. Once I decided to create this spectacular dish in my kitchen,  I set out…
