Making Cucumber Pickles
We have had a bumper crop from our cucumber plants this year. I have canned bread and butter pickles, dill pickles, sweet pickles, and sweet pickle relish.
Canning a Few Tomatoes
I had a few leftover tomatoes from my garden that I did not cook. We only grew a few tomatoes this year, mostly grape tomatoes. Only one plant grew larger tomatoes, but with the early heat, they haven’t grown very big.
Crawfish Etouffee
Crawfish Etouffee is a Cajun recipe that literally means crawfish and gravy. It is a gravy with crawfish that is spooned over rice and stirred in.
Making Beignets is Easy
A beignet is a small French donut, coated in powdered sugar and is usually eaten in the morning. This recipe is a yeast risen dough rather than a baking powder dough like a biscuit. This recipe is much slower but more traditional than the quick rise method of making beignets.
Chicken and Sausage Gumbo
An easy to cook gumbo recipe. This is a classic Cajun recipe, meaning this recipe has no tomatoes in it. It also does not use okra.
