Nicole Denee Fontenot

This book is by one of the experts on Cajun culture. The book is filled with tasty recipes submitted by Cajun women, and reflects both traditional and new techniques. You know the book is "not in Kansas anymore" when you read the names of the women who submitted the recipes. As a sidebar to each recipe is an "I remember" section written by another Cajun woman describing her early life in South Louisiana. The names signed to these memories are also very Cajun.
