Cajun Cooking

I’d like to cook something special for my anniversary dinner. Each year I pick recipes from the world and I thought this year we could try Cajun Cooking. The one who gives me something like “family recipes” (I mean a recipe that is not taken from the internet) gets 10 pts.

Thank you and hugs from Italy

Cajun Cooking

Traditional Cajun Cooking would include Turduckins (duck breast stuffed in a chicken stuffed in a turkey) & stuffed chickens. (Both are traditional French recipes long forgotten but rediscovered here in creole & cajun country)

With either, you would first de-bone the bird or ask your local butcher to do it for you(except for the wings), season the interior, then stuff with your choice of dressing. I like to stuff my birds with crayfish etoufee, Jambalaya(my favorite), dirty rice, Boudin, or something more “american” say Broccoli & Cheese rice casserole. Then I like to cook my bird in a clay pot.(I know that you can get your hands on a clay pot for sure in Italy!) Take root vegetables (potatoes, onions, shallots, carrots’ parsnips) & some mushrooms & place them on the bottom of the clay pot. Add a good full bodied red wine like Cabernet, merlot, sangiovese, granache or pinot noir (not chianti!) to the bottom to give a good flavor & add moisture. Place chicken on top of vegetables. Add fresh rosemary, garlic, sage & thyme then season appropriately with sea salt & fresh ground pepper. Cook at 375 for about 1 hour (get a meat thermometer)

DON’T FORGET TO SEASON THE INSIDE OF THE BIRD BEFORE STUFFING!!!!

Remove the bird onto a large cutting board & let cool for 10 minutes. Then with an extremely sharp knife slice the bird from side to side. This should create “Roulades” which should look like a meat circle filled with the stuffing. Season to taste & enjoy a true masterpiece!

For dessert make a white chocolate bread pudding complemented with a whiskey sauce.(recipe on the internet for bread pudding. Just add white chocolate!)
Or go for Bananas Foster
I am a manager at a Cajun Specialty Meat market & we sell about 1000 stuffed chickens every month. For more cooking instructions & ideas go to stuffedfoodstores.com

Because I think that you are in italy here are some leads on some prepackaged products that you can order; Zatatrains Jambalaya(the best), Tony Chaches creole seasonings. Paul Prudhommes seasonings (incredible)

Good Luck & happy anniversary.

mortgage refinance There are two types of cookers nowadays. One is the type of people who have a very modern kitchen, probably with only 2 walls communicating with the living room. They use the microwave oven to cook. This way they don’t make smells in the entire house.

juegos   Compared to traditional ovens and stoves, especially older, less energy-efficient models, the crockpot uses much less energy. You can load an entire meal into a crockpot and not turn on the oven, stove, or microwave.

You’ll need raw ingredients for the crockpot, which means you’ll save money buying fresh items opposed to boxed and processed goods. Frozen or boxed side items, as well as processed entrees, can cost up to two times as much as their fresh, raw counterparts.

Next time you’re at the grocery store, equip a calculator and add up your purchases, separating your produce and raw meats to your frozen, canned, and boxed goods. You’ll probably be surprised.

By avoiding boxed and processed foods, you’ll also be doing your health a favor. Compare the ingredient list of frozen mashed potatoes to the ingredient list on a bag of raw Russet potatoes. Compare the wall of preservatives and chemicals in a large frozen family meal to the ingredients of fresh onions, squash, mushrooms, and a chuck roast from the meat aisle.

homes for sale  They allowed for unattended cooking of standard home food such as stew, rice and other dishes. People loved these because they just had to put in the ingredients, leave the cooker as it is, go to work and come back to a freshly prepared dish. With the advent of fast food joints and with the introduction of microwaves, slow cookers had lost their charm.

The best thing about the crock pot recipes is that even though they take 8 hours to get cooked, in that 8 hours you don’t care at all what happens to the food. Because it can’t get burned. The recipes are also very delicious. This is because the seasoning has enough time to fully combine with the meat.
These recipes haven’t been that popular in the past. Maybe this is because the crock pots used to be expensive. But now it’s not the case. These recipes are the new wave in cooking.

This recipe comes from my mother-in-law Flo.  It is the most requested dish at our family get-togethers.  She is the queen of this dish.  It is rich and delicious. With the Holidays coming up and wanting to use some Louisiana products, I thought this as an appropriate beginning. The seasoning is locally made and available worldwide. The shrimp were bought locally.

1 can Cream of Shrimp Soup
2 pkg. Unflavored Gelatin
¼ c. Cold Water
2 – 8 oz. Cream Cheese (room temperature)
½ c. Celery (finely chopped)
½ c. Onion (finely chopped)
½ c. Green Onion (finely chopped)
½ c. Parsley (finely chopped)
1 c. REAL Mayonnaise
2 lbs. Shrimp or Crawfish (coarsely chopped)
1 tsp. Southern B-B-Q Seasoning Mix
½ tsp. Sugar

Heat soup in a 3 qt. Sauce pan (DO NOT let it boil, just simmer slowly).  Dissolve gelatin in water.

Add gelatin and the next 6 ingredients to soup.

When the cream cheese has melted add the shrimp or crawfish, the Southern  Seasoning and sugar.

Pour into a well greased mold (use mayonnaise to grease) and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight is better.

Serve on platter with Ritz Crackers or some other really rich cracker.
