Dewey Decimal Number: 641.59763 EAN: 9781584795247 ISBN: 1584795247 Label: Stewart, Tabori and Chang Manufacturer: Stewart, Tabori and Chang Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 336 Publication Date: February 01, 2006 Publisher: Stewart, Tabori and Chang Sales Rank: 39978 Studio: Stewart, Tabori and Chang Editorial Review: Prior to the disaster, Tom was just putting the finishing touches on his magnum opus: a collection of recipes for the best of New Orleans food gathered and developed over more than 30 years spent reporting eating in the Big Easy. In addition to his weekly restaurant review column, which has been published continuously for 33 years, Tom is best known for his daily 3-hour radio show, 'The Food Show,' broadcast every afternoon on WSMB. With New Orleans Food, Tom presents more than 250 great New Orleans recipes designed for the home cook, all steeped in the Creole and Cajun traditions, yet updated to reflect contemporary tastes and ingredients. From small plates (Shrimp Remoulade with Two Sauces) to main courses (Redfish Herbsaint, Root Beer-Glazed Ham) to desserts and drinks (Bananas Foster, Beignets, and Cafe au Lait), these are dishes both elegant and casual, traditional and evolved. Whether you are nostalgic for the taste of New Orleans or simply love good food, New Orleans Food should find a place on your cookbook shelf. Now every Monday, everywhere, can be red-beans-and-rice day. A portion of the profits from the sale of this book will benefit New Orleans recovery efforts. Related Items:

![]() Rating: - Somewhat dissappointed...The best recipes to cook at home? I found them a bit complicated for 'home' recipes. And I had hoped for more of NOLA traditional fare knowing the authors roots & connections to the NOLA scene. I grew up in NOLA as did my mother and her family going back generations, but my mom's home recipes were more in the american chop suey vain...she would have told you her best meals were eating out ;-) Although more 'authentic' than my mom's recipes I just wasn't overwhelmed. Reading through the book, I didn't say - wow, I want to make this... Books by Leah Chase or the Commander's Palace cookbooks inspired me more. Sorry, I went in with high expectations... Flip through it at a book store before purchasing it online to ensure you really want to purchase it. Rating: - Great Book!This is a great cookbook! New Orleans is one of my favorite places, and I have been greatly impressed by the recipes included in this book. Rating: - Great Book for New Orleans' RecipesI am a native New Orleanian and find this cookbook very, very good. I have tried many of the recipes thus far and have been please with each. Quite a few of these recipe's have resulted in reminding me of my grandmother, mother, and aunt's cooking during the time I was growing up in the New Orleans area (this was an unexpected but pleasant surprise). Mr. Fitzmorris begins each recipe with historical background and/or recollections of his mother preparing the dish. I have found that the recipes are easy to follow, have sufficient detail, and list the ingredients in the appropriate/logical order (not found in many cook books). I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in preparing authentic New Orleans meals. Rating: - One of the best!I'm a transplanted Louisianan living in the Northeast (though everyone keeps insisting Maryland is the south)! I recently made a couple of recipes from the book for a New Orleans brunch I hosted for some picky eaters (me being one of them). The food was outstanding and the recipes were fairly easy to understand and prepare. Along with my River Road Recipes cookbooks, this one is quickly becoming a favorite.
