December 28, 2020 by George Graham 6 Comments

Stuffed Collard Rolls with Red Gravy

Just in time for New Year’s Day, these Stuffed Collard Rolls combine all the flavors of the South into one tight little package. Ground pork sautéed down in smoky bacon grease spiked with Cajun spice, infused with rice and black-eyed peas, and all rolled up in a flavorful collard green leaf. Sauced with tomato gravy…

Lard of the Rings: Crazy-Crisp Cajun Onion Rings

Lard of the Rings: Crazy-Crisp Cajun Onion Rings

For me, onion rings are a weakness bordering on obsession; a perfectly fried o-ring is a thing of beauty.  When dining out, I order them constantly and will even pay a couple of bucks more to substitute onion rings for fries.  While some are good, and others just acceptable, I am mostly disappointed.  Even at…

Gumbo Z’herbes – A Religious Experience

March 9, 2020 by George Graham 4 Comments

Gumbo Z’herbes – A Religious Experience

As in most culinary cultures, religion has an impact on the dishes of South Louisiana with gumbo z’herbes being an example. In the predominantly Catholic region of Acadiana, meat is consumed sparingly during the Lenten season leading up to Easter and this “gumbo of herbs” has become an alternative usually served on Good Friday.  The…

Mushroom Soup

Rich, intense flavors explode in your mouth with my Mushroom Soup recipe. As a side dish or soup entrée, this one delivers a wallop of taste. It goes without saying that I’m a meat-lover, but from time to time, my wife requests an all-vegetable dinner. Okay, I’m in. But with bold and meaty flavors, my…

Potato and Brussels Soup

June 10, 2019 by George Graham 7 Comments

Potato and Brussels Soup

Potato soup is friendly and familiar—just like that old high-school BFF that visits once a year. The recipe has become a comfortable (and predictable) interpretation of a thick and creamy bowl of pulverized potatoes loaded up with cheese. And yes, I love it as much as you do. But with my Potato and Brussels Soup…

Asparagus Soup

Asparagus Soup

The delicate flavor of asparagus makes a bold statement when cooked down into a soul-satisfying bowl of Asparagus Soup. It’s a fresh taste of spring in a bowl. Asparagus is a mainstay in my kitchen, and I use it in so many creative ways. Roasted, grilled, and steamed are obvious, but when we stumbled upon…

Salmon and Shrimp Salad with Grapefruit Vinaigrette

June 11, 2018 by George Graham 4 Comments

Salmon and Shrimp Salad with Grapefruit Vinaigrette

For a born and fed bayou boy like me, eating light in the summer makes up for the countless pounds of boiled crawfish I consumed this spring.  And it gives me pause for the endless bowls of gumbo to come this fall.  That’s why today’s fresh Salmon and Shrimp Salad featuring poached salmon and sautéed…
