Seafood - Husbands Grandmothers Shrimp Gumbo

Here's an old-school gumbo with shrimp, sausage, bacon, okra, the holy trinity, and a roux that is painstakingly stirred and cooked into a warm chocolate color, to deepen and enrich the flavor. Serve this over hot cooked rice.

Herbs And Spices - Clams Italiano

These clams are steamed in wine, butter, and spices. When the clams are gone, dip Italian bread in the broth.

Breakfast And Brunch - Apple Raisin French Toast Casserole

This is a delicious breakfast dish that my mother likes to prepare for Christmas breakfast. It is easy to prepare, and sets overnight, so in the morning you just put it in the oven and enjoy.

Bacon, shallots, onion and garlic, cooked in a thick creamy sauce, and tossed with fettuccini.
