Kosher Cajun Cookbook

By Sylvia Gibson and Mildred L. Covert

Book Overview

From "a pioneering scholar of Southern and Jewish food traditions," Cajun cooking recipes that adhere completely to the laws of Kashruth (The Jewish News).

Cajun cuisine and the kosher kitchen--an incompatible combination? Not with this exciting collection of kashruth-approved delicacies.

From the heart of Louisiana, Mildred Covert and Sylvia Gerson adapt the rich traditions of Acadiana to the kosher kitchen. Just as they successfully fuse Jewish and Creole cooking in Kosher Creole Cookbook, they again innovate with a Cajun flair.

Tour Acadiana and visit the soul of Cajun territory: Lafayette, St. Martinville, New Iberia, Bayou Lafourche, and other bayou country locales. The authors highlight important cultural notes about each stop and provide kosher recipes that authentically duplicate the celebrated flavors of each area of south Louisiana.

quintessential New Orleans recipes

If you only bought this book for two recipes, it would be worth the price. If you want K.Paul's recipe for blackened Red Fish, you've got it here: Shvarzadik RedfFish. The real New Orleans bread pudding: Bayou Lafourche Bread Pudding. We've got an autographed 1987 edition and the cover is as ragged as 21 years of use would indicate.
