Shortcake
Stewed apples
Chantilly cream
Note: In their book, Dam Good Sweet, David and Racquel recommend serving the shortbread with macerated strawberries. Here I recommend Stewed Apples, which are seasonal for autumn and appropriate for Thanksgiving. The photo on the right is close to what yours will look like. |

Chefs note: The chayote squash, or vegetable pear, is called a mirliton in South Louisiana. The Los Isleños, or Canary Islanders, brought mirliton to the area in the 1700s. Today, it is the premier vegetable of the Cajuns and Creoles and is found in many entrées and side dishes. |
