Title: Somewhat dissappointed...
Product review: The best recipes to cook at home? I found them a bit complicated for 'home' recipes. And I had hoped for more of NOLA traditional fare knowing the authors roots & connections to the NOLA scene.I grew up in NOLA as did my mother and her family going back generations, but my mom's home recipes were more in the american chop suey vain...she would have told you her best meals were eating out ;-)Although more 'authentic' than my mom's recipes I just wasn't overwhelmed. Reading through the book, I didn't say - wow, I want to make this...Books by Leah Chase or the Commander's Palace cookbooks inspired me more. Sorry, I went in with high expectations...Flip through it at a book store before purchasing it online to ensure you really want to purchase it.
