I love to cook and enjoy trying out different kinds of food. The author has made it easy for a beginner to prepare very authentic dishes. I'd never known that a roux used flour and oil, instead of butter. Also the Brown Shrimp Jambalaya preparation explains that the onions need to be cooked so dark that they are almost burned. Those are the kinds of tips I need.The Jambalaya turned out delicious, and so did the Red Beans and Rice. I've never tried making either of them. I'm looking forward to making some of the seafood au gratin dishes.I appreciate the information on nutrition in each recipe and the interactive table of contents. I do wish there were more pictures, but the detailed instructions made up for that.
