Publishers Text

New Orleanians have elevated the pleasures of cooking and consuming to a highly skilled, sophisticated art form. In this edition, the authors offer 119 recipes they consider most representative of New Orleans home cuisine. The trio have drawn extensively from the three primary cultures-English, French and Spanish-that have contributed most to refining the city's culinary specialties, in many cases unlocking nineteenth century cooking secrets discovered in old handwritten notes. The carefully compiled recipes include metric measures, and may be prepared perfectly, even by the beginning cook. Balanced categories make the volume simple but complete, so that everyone, from gourmet chef to neophyte cook, may enjoy the pleasures a wide range of food many regard the best in the world. Suzanne Ormond, a native Orleanian, and Mary E. Irvine, a long-time resident of New Orleans, are also the authors of Louisiana's Art Noveau, which documents and illustrates the celebrated crafts of the Newcomb Style. Denyse Cantin, a native of Quebec City, Canada, lived in New Orleans while her husband served as the Consul General of Canada in the city. Also available in French and Spanish versions.
