Mothers Day Gift Idea! A copy of my cookbook makes a great gift for Mothers Day. Order here. I have a family reunion tomorrow and, for the first time, I'm not cooking anything to take for the pot-luck. My kitchen is all but packed up, plus, I just don't have the time. My sister flies in this afternoon and I'm making a quick meal for her; baked sweet potatoes, smothered green beans, butterbeans, a ham steak, and will use the last of my cornmeal for some cornbread. Then the cornbread skillet gets packed away. For the recipes this week, I'm starting with a brunch idea for Mother's Day: A crawfish hash served with eggs benedict. one of my favorites: Creole-Italian Barbecue Shrimp. And finally, good old fashioned Southern cooking: Smothered Steak and Greens. Enjoy the recipes, stay safe and healthy, and, as always, let me know what's on your mind. Best regards, Susan Ford, Publisher and Editorial Director P.S. You can easily share this newsletter with family and friends, just use the link at the bottom of the page. Previous week's recipes: • Shrimp and Orzo Salad • Lemon-Garlic Broiled Shrimp • Pasta with Mini Meatballs

Creole-Italian Barbecue Shrimp This is Creole Italian cooking at its finest. Get the largest shrimp you can find. You have to cook them with the heads on because they add a lot of essential flavor to the sauce. Cut them off before serving if you'd like. Serve with plenty of hot buttered French bread for sopping up the sauce, and lots of napkins. It's a hands-on dish. |

Smothered Steak and Greens This is old fashioned Southern cooking. The steak is cooked in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Water is added a bit at a time, evaporating and developing fond and flavor with each addition. Cook until fork-tender. Add the greens and smother to desired texture. |
