| A very popular and easy to make treat for all your parties and family gatherings. |
| The crawfish boil is one the most popular Cajun meals. It is very popular at school graduation and Easter time......just about the time crawfish are running low for the end of the season. Cajun crawfish boil seasonings do the trick to perfectly season these little tiny lobsters. This is for the times you can't buy it or do not have it.
A neat addition to boiled crawfish is adding smoked sausage cut in 4 inch pieces and boil along with the crawfish. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Not yet rated |

| When you are a displaced Cajun and do not have access to fresh sausage, here is an easy alternative - Make them yourself.
On a typical boucherie day when the hog is slaughtered and the sausage is prepared, the sausage links which are soft are hung outside on a clothes line until dry at which time the sausage will firm up. The day has to be a sunny cool day as the sun is needed to melt the fat in the meat.
When away from home, securing the meat needed for the sausage is as close as your local meat vendor or supermarket.

| Candied yams are a popular favorite at holiday time. Although the trend is to cook the yams casserole style in the oven, my children really prefer this method of cooking yams. |
| This is a must at our Christmas holiday table. It compliments the fried turkey, pork roast and rice dressing because of the slightly sweet taste and still leaves room for dessert. |
| A very popular Cajun classic side dish; add smoked sausage and make it a complete meal. This dish is also known as "La Sauce de Patat" or "the sauce of potato".
There are cooks who do add butter and cream to this dish. |
| What a novel twist....baking fudge. However, Baked Fudge will not look like or have the consistency of your candy fudge. I can see how the name is misleading, but it is NOT supposed to be like the fudge that you get at the candy store or make with other recipes. It's also not cake firm like brownies-- it's supposed to be a little runny and mushy. This is how it us suppose to turn out if it is baked fudge. If you want baked fudge, this is a fantastic recipe. If you want candy fudge or brownies, this is not the recipe for you. The taste is however just incredible. |
| Because it is hard to find, fried cow's brain is a treat for my family. |

| As a young child growing up, I remember on Friday's during Lent, my Dad would trade some of his farm goods for fresh shrimp. Mom would make us shrimp stew with fried shrimp balls. As with almost any shrimp dish, crawfish can be used instead. |
