Originally published in 1929, this splendid collection of authentic Creole recipes continues to prove its popularity. From Crab Okra Gumbo to Fried Oysters and Yams Louisiane to Beignets de Pommes, more than three hundred recipes fill the pages of this culinary classic. The savory dishes you create will tantalize your taste buds while the homespun homilies will have your vocal chords humming. Simple and practical, Mandy's Favorite Louisiana Recipes brings Creole cookin' straight from the kitchens of Louisiana to your table. Born in 1890, Natalie V. Scott became an advocate for New Orleans cuisine and culture. She was a renowned journalist who served as a Red Cross nurse and translator during World Wars I and II. Scott was awarded the Croix de Guerre, France's highest medal for bravery, for her efforts to rescue patients from the bombed medical building where she worked. She is the author of Gourmet's Guide to New Orleans: Creole Cookbook and 200 Years of New Orleans Cooking. These invaluable resources for authentic New Orleans cuisine are both available from Firebird Press. Her biography Natalie Scott: A Magnificent Life, by John W. Scott, is published by Pelican.
Autorenporträt
Natalie Vivian Scott (1890-1957) was a unique woman who is remembered for her contributions to literature and various causes. She served as a Red Cross nurse during World Wars I and II and received the Croix de Guerre, France's highest medal for bravery, for rescuing patients from a bombed medical building where she worked. She continued to pursue a career in journalism after the war and received recognition for her literary efforts. Scott was even described by author Sherwood Anderson as "the best newspaperwoman in America." She eventually opened the Kitigawa House in Taxco, Mexico, a pension for artists and writers, while assisting William Spratling in developing the silver industry for tourists. Her affection for New Orleans and theatre led to her role in the founding of Le Petit Théâtre du Vieux Carré, one of the oldest community playhouses in the United States. Scott's interest in the city's culture is apparent in her books Gourmet's Guide to New Orleans: Creole Cookbook and 200 Years of New Orleans Cooking, both published by Pelican.
