Cooking Louisiana - Serving Louisiana Cookbook
|
The Louisiana State
University Agricultural Center helps
our land and sea farmers harvest
their highest yields. Now,
the LSU AgCenter has delivered the end product to the table, all
in Louisiana style and class!
Within its 228 page hardcover, Serving Louisiana has over 240 old and new, well written recipes. A few favorites include: Picante Chicken, Corn and Crab Soup, The Kids Will Never Know Poorboys, Oysters a la LuLa, Crawfish Cornbread Casserole, Sweet Potato Biscuits and King Cake. Additional sections of Serving Louisiana are dedicated to Table Etiquette, a Cajun Glossary, Quantity Cooking and Essential Nutrients. It does not get any more Louisiana than this! Okay, why would you not own one? Look, this book is not only a deal for $21.95 but also an investment! The cost comes out to less than 10 cents per recipe and I like to consider all the other great information and exquisite pictures by Donn Young as lagniappe. You won't just show it off, you'll use it! Again and again..... Okay, how do you get it? Right now you have three choices, you can call (225) 578-4161, you can visit the AgCenter website at www.lsuagcenter.com/cookbook. and Barnes and Noble.
Alright, here's your freebee... If you are looking for
a recipe that tiger fans will love during cooler weather, former LSU
football coach Nick Saban has one that is a champ.
The LSU AgCenter cookbook, Serving Louisiana, includes
“Nick’s Baked Beans,” a hearty dish that is easy to prepare. Nick’s Baked Beans 1 pound ground chuck Brown the ground chuck with the onion and bell
pepper in a skillet, stirring until the ground chuck is crumbly;
drain. Stir in the baked beans, ketchup, brown sugar, salt and
pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

The Serving Louisiana cookbook is what I
consider the "final product" of the hard work of both the
farmer and the LSU AgCenter. Th
