Asparagus Soup

May 19, 2025 by George Graham 9 Comments

Asparagus Soup

The delicate flavor of asparagus makes a bold statement when cooked down into a soul-satisfying bowl of Asparagus Soup. It’s a fresh taste of spring in a bowl. Asparagus is a mainstay in my kitchen, and I use it in so many creative ways. Roasted, grilled, and steamed are obvious, but when we stumbled upon…

Creole Smothered Green Beans with Andouille Sausage

This Creole Smothered Green Beans is the one you’ll always see on our holiday table. It’s simply green beans straight out of a can, but it’s uncanny how these green beans–sautéed up in smoky bacon grease, smothered down in spicy andouille, and spiked with Cajun seasonings–will bring “thanks” to your Thanksgiving table. This Creole Smothered…

White Beans with Hambone: The Instant Pot Version

Smoky, meaty, warming, and filling with a depth of Cajun spice, my White Beans infused with a flavor-packed hambone is comfort in a bowl. There are times that my sole purpose for baking a whole bone-in ham is for the hambone. While I don’t profess that you go to that extreme, I do expect that…

Stuffed Bell Peppers

Stuffed Bell Peppers

Sunday dinner is for basic, comfort food, and my wife, Roxanne, brought out the bells this past weekend. There is something about the sweet flavor of bell peppers stuffed with a meaty medley of pork, beef, aromatics, herbs, and spices that rings true to the culture of Cajun cooking. This is a recipe that is…

Summer Squash Soup

August 12, 2024 by George Graham 10 Comments

Summer Squash Soup

Slow simmered and puréed into a smooth, bisque-like creaminess, my Summer Squash Soup explodes with the fresh flavors of the season. Spiced with a light hand, I love how the vegetables shine brightly with just a hint of mint and the gentle bite of sweet onion. While I confess to eating lighter in the heat…

Crabmeat-Stuffed Artichoke

Crabmeat-Stuffed Artichoke

When I saw the large artichokes stacked high at the produce stand, I knew in an instant that crabmeat-stuffed artichoke would be the perfect dish for a summertime appetizer.  It was time to get stuffing. Though hardly Cajun, globe artichokes are actually a cultivated variety of thistle.  But, in the hands of an adventurous cook, the…

Fried Green Tomato Shrimp Rémoulade

March 25, 2024 by George Graham 20 Comments

Fried Green Tomato Shrimp Rémoulade

When I glance at a menu and see anything featuring rémoulade sauce, I’m salivating. Usually, it’s a straightforward shrimp appetizer served on a bed of shredded iceberg that in the hands of a cook that has their rémoulade repertoire figured out is well worth ordering. But recently I was astounded to find a spin on shrimp rémoulade…

Stuffed Goo-Gootz

At the first hint of cool weather, cucuzza squash starts showing up at the farmer’s markets and produce stands around Acadiana. Some folks are unfamiliar with this elongated green squash variety, but those in the know look forward to it every autumn season.  Time for a Stuffed Goo-Gootz. For most of us, cucuzza is pronounced…
