| Stacy writes, "I made this for people at work to show them what real Cajun food taste is. It was gone before I ate any. I live now in Oklahoma but originally from Louisiana." Stacy is true Cajun as her recipe reflects, a lil bit of dis and a lil bit of dat.

| Many Cajuns refer to corn as macque choux (mach shoo). Originally however this was an Indian word meaning corn. |

| Need an idea for brunch, lunch, party or holiday - this works. Goes great with chili too. |
| "De chou" (day shoo) is the Cajun word for cabbage. Beats MawMaw's childhood nick name of "cabbage head", don't you think? No I am not sure why MawMaw was nicknamed that. |
| There are two varieties of sweet potatoes; the pale yellow with a dry flesh and the dark orange with a moist flesh. The dark orange variety is plumper in shape and somewhat sweeter than the yellow variety. What are frequently called yams, especially in the Southern U.S., are in fact sweet potatoes. The two are not related, even though they look similar and are used in pretty much the same way. Not yet rated |
| I had often wondered what "maque choux" meant in French. My friend, Howard, was smart enough to inform me that macque choux was the native American Indian word for corn.
Cajuns took these words to the limit. They prepare a great variety of many corn dishes. |
| These hearty, delicious eggplant morsels can be used as a replacement for meatballs, or they can be fried into patties and eaten like burgers. Great for vegetarians!
The most common type of eggplant(aubergine or braham) eaten in the U.S. is the large, dark-purple Italian eggplant. Less common are the slender lavender and small white
types of eggplants. Eggplant is one of the least-frequently eaten vegetables in the U.S. Not yet rated |
| Here is what the author said about non-okra lovers: "I made this twice already, first time I made like this, second time I made it for a big group (26 people), I changed things a little. I browned bacon & used it in the dish, I also added a little tobaso, salt n pepper & I topped it with shredded Pepper Jack Cheese. I had great raves about it, even people who didn't like okra ate it." Kinda like Mikey - Try it you'll like it! Not yet rated |
