It’s summer time in the South. And, let me tell you, a southern summer is hot. Hot and humid. The kind of hot that you almost can’t get away from and the kind of humidity that clings to your skin and wilts your hair as soon as you set foot outside the air conditioned comfort [...]

Shrimp Creole

June 10, 2009

Another old favorite, Shrimp Creole. This recipe for Shrimp Creole has, naturally, been tweaked somewhat by me, but it originally came from Craig Claiborne’s “Southern Cooking.” Craig Claiborne was a food writer for the New York Times, but he was born and raised in Mississippi.
