Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Creole chickpea stew

    • Laura on April 26, 2011

      This was the first recipe I've made from this book and it was not an auspicious beginning. I thought it was quite boring and lacking in any real flavor. In its favor, it was quite simple and fairly quick to assemble. Still, I won't be making it again.

  • Twice-cooked plantains

    • TrishaCP on April 01, 2017

      This is our standard recipe for cooking plantains when we don't want to fry them. It is quite a good "cheat" recipe, though not as good as the fried version. You first boil them in chicken stock, and then bake until crisp in the oven.
