Best Cajun Creole cookbook to buy

[Anonymoose]

Some of my favorite cookbooks are the ones put together by local organizations, clubs, charities, and ladies' auxiliaries and such. You never know what treasure you'll find buried in one of them.

Ha! My Better Homes and Gardens cookbook was printed in 1965. My Mom gave it to me when I moved off campus and got my first kitchen. It's like the cooking bible, and since it's a hard cover 3 ring binder, I've typed up and added a lot of recipes of my own that I've collected over the years.

Tony's seafood is one of the things I miss most about living in BR. River Road is definitely one of the best. Both sets of my grandparents loved the River Road, both sets lived in Broadmore. I now possess both of the River Road's that belonged to my maternal and paternal grandmothers.
Great informative video.

I bought the River Road back in the 70s when I was first learning how to cook. Many of my friends used it also. Another good one was from the Time-Life series American Cooking: Creole and Acadian that came with a separate spiral recipe book. A lot of these older cookbooks can be found on sites like ebay.

I like the Louisiana Seafood Bible Series and John Folse's Encyclopedia of Creole and Cajun Cuisine . I have a cookbook addiction. I have almost all of the Americas Test Kitchen series as well.

OMG. River Road Recipes is my FAVE. I've cooked from it for years. I think there are 3 total and I own all 3. Well worth the $!! Totally agree with you on this!

Loved the festival pictures. JB how about a Louisiana Cajun Recipes "On the Road" edition take take us along to some of those festivals? It would be foodie paradise for those of us who can't make it to your neck of the woods that often.

I have several LA Jr League cookbooks and family Cajun recipes handed down...I wondered if You ever come across a sausage recipe from a butcher in Thibodaux ( he had a meat shop there in the 1950's- 1960 era) and it is a lost recipe since he passed away. We asked around and no one knows how or what went into it.( it was a" Cumberland" style sausage link w a Cajun twist) Maybe someone would know something Mr JB?....Love Your cookbooks and cooking!
