October 10, 2019
 

Just when we think summer might finally be relinquishing its hold on us, another heat wave rolls through. I'm on the verge of turning the thermostat down to 62 and pretending the weather is cool enough for a sweater. Maybe we'll get some rain and cooler weather this weekend.

We're deep in the throes of finalizing our 2019 Holiday Food Guide; up tomorrow for photography, a luxurious Seafood Lasagna with shrimp, crab, and scallops. I can't wait to get my fork into that one! We're also working on a Louisiana citrus pepper jelly vinaigrette that will be delicious on all kinds of salads over the whole holiday season.

We've also got a perfectly medium-rare chuck roast in the issue that's also meltingly tender, no easy feat for that very tasty but tending toward cut of meat. That holiday meal is rounded out with a delicious potato galette, green beans (NOT the condensed soup casserole one!), and a fool proof recipe for creating the perfect popover to go with that meal.

Spaghetti Antalina

Spaghetti Antalina

Back Pocket Pasta, by Colu Henry, never fails to inspire me when I have no idea what to cook for dinner, whether I follow one of her recipes faithfully or it simply kicks my imagination into gear. This one is from southern Italy. If, like me, you always have pecans on hand instead of walnuts, sub them in instead . Click to forward this email and recipes.

Alligator Chili

Alligator Chili (Geaux Tigers!)

This is from Chef John Folse's excellent cookbook The Evolution of Cajun and Creole Cuisine, and it's for all those LSU Tigers fans out there. The Big Game against the Florida Gators is this weekend, and, while I'm sure there will be plenty of whole gators on the grill, this one works for those of us who don't have access to a whole alligator. Feel free to substitute diced or ground chuck.  Click to forward email and recipes.

Colossal Gulf Shrimp with Crab Stuffing

Colossal BBQ Shrimp with Crab Stuffing

If you want, make the brine several days in advance and keep refrigerated; everything else comes together quickly. The recipe calls for smoking the stuffed shrimp, but they're equally good baked or cooked over indirect heat on a covered grill. Click to forward email and recipes.
