Fish Courtbouillon
It’s spicy and soul-warming yet light with fish and bright with lemon juice. Fish courtbouillon is a Cajun dish that is often not found in restaurants and mostly unknown to people outside of South Louisiana.
Beef and Beet Stew
It’s deep and decadent like the best of beef stews but also has a subtle sweetness and lightness, thanks to the beets. The combination creates the perfect bridge food between wanting the depth and comfort of winter food, but the air is a bit too warm.
Creole-Spiced Poached Fish
With warming spices of allspice, coriander, and cloves, it creates a comforting dish full of flavor that is perfect for an early spring cold snap. The flavors are reminiscent of grits and grillades.
Chickpeas and Spinach with Sweet Potato and Yogurt Sauce
The chickpea stew creates the perfect base to compliment the sweetness and richness of buttered sweet potatoes. The tanginess of yogurt keeps things exciting and fresh.
Curried Lentils
Curried lentils should mean warmth and heartiness because that’s what it does to the soul. Curl up on the couch with a giant bowl of stew with roti on the side to shake that first fall chill right off.
