Best Cookbook on the Planet November 7, 2009
Mom from Louisiana (LA United States)
I have an earlier edition of this cookbook that is torn, tattered, and full of food stains (I know that sounds yucky). I decided to look at Amazon to find another copy of the earlier edition, when I found this edition. Basically this edition has the same recipes, but I was a bit disappointed that it doesn't have the beautiful pictures to go with Ms. Thompson-Anderson's amazing recipes. So I will keep the old one, put it in plastic sleeves, and use it to cook with, so I can pass the new one along to one of my daugher's on their wedding day....I know the price is steep, but this cookbook is worth every penny! If you like Cajun-Creole cooking this cookbook is a MUST HAVE for your cookbook collection.

Terry Thompson-Anderson's newest edition of Cajun-Creole Cooking was a
pleasant surprise. It is the fourth time I have purchased her book (because friends didn't return them) and this update is even better. Terry was a consultant when we opened the original Cajun-Creole restaurant
Cafe Nola in Philadelphia. Her recipes won us a following that kept us in
business for 16 years. I used her latest book for the Mardi Gras celebration at our even longer-running Copabanana which has been doing Tex-Mex for 30 years. I look forward to her newest "Texas on a Plate" for refining my Texas recipes at Copa. My kitchen staff was wowed by the depth of flavors her recipes produce.

I not only recommend this book, I have bought it-- TWICE!
I owned an earlier version of this book and used the recipes in it as the basis for my parties while in the Navy. I have a few of my mother's recipes but this book is the basis for all of my friends thinking that I am an outstanding cook. Instead, I was a thirty-something bachelor who can read and follow directions. This book is that good.
The recipes are absolutely delicious and after Hurricane Katrina hit I ordered a new copy of this- PRONTO!
My only complaint about the book is that occasionally the recipes assume you know the basics. Maybe most people know that you have to soak dried beans before cooking them but I didn't and so my first attempt at Red Beans and Rice was a disaster. But most of you aren't going to be such amateurs in the kitchen as I was when I did that. I look forward to reading the latest version just to see if those oversights were eliminated.
Aside from that, I wholeheartedly recommend this book. I read the reviewer who said he had a separate copy in a safe deposit box. Good Idea!
Simply: The Best Book on Cajun-Creole, period. July 12, 2001

My girlfriend gave me this book when we started dating. It was the first cookbook I ever owned, I had no idea what a gem it was. Since then my mother gave me all her Cajun-Creole books (about 25 in all), books signed by Emeril and Paul Prudhomme, none compare, this is without a doubt my favorite. Everyone lays claim to 'authentic' Cajun-Creole recipes, recipes need to have this ingredient or that or else they're not Cajun-Creole. If there were such a standard (there isn't), then this book would have to serve as the measure. My wife often suggests that giving me this book helped convince me to marry her ;-)
