Special Writer for The star


Louisiana cookery, often
referred to as Creole cook
ing, is q combination of
French, Spanish, Negro and
Indian skills at their best.
Soon after the French set
tied in New Orleans, back in
1872. under Bienville, there
was what was called a petit
coat rebellion" The house
wives were up in arms over
the scarcity of all the piquant
herbs and spices they had
been accustomed to using in
France. Nine. Langlois Gov.
Bienville's housekeeper) was
put in charge Of this prob
lem. . Over a period Of
months she organized "hen
parties" to teach the irate
ladies the secrets Of using
gimbo file "a mixture Of In
dian sassafras leaves and
thyme), how to make corn
into honainy grits and many
other Southern delicacies.
Famous Recipes
Out of these meetings came
many of the famous South
ern recipes such as corn
pone," creole rice and jam
balaya. The latter is a won
derful recipe to serve at your
Friday night informal get
togethers. Their time-hon-
ored recipes are outstand-
ingly characteristic because
of the subtle use of herbs.
After the French, the Span
ish came bringing with them
ideas for using spices and
hot peppers. IT'S said they
added spices of life to Creole
cooking"
Many of the old world
traditions are still charm
ingly preserved in New Or
leans. One of the greatest
of these is the heritage of
fine cooking and the leisurely
manner in which people en-
Joy gourmet dishes served in
the Crescent City's world
famous restaurants.
We had a delightful meal
at Nine. Tujague's renowned
restaurant on Decatur street
in the heart of the market
district. Tujague's is a FAM
lily restaurant operated in the
best traditions of similar es-
adjustments in the famous
lies Halles" section of Paris.
Only Nine. Tujague knows
how to make the economical
cuts of beef into something
fit for a king. She told me
the secret is in having a
good vegetable bunch"

with the beef until tender.
The beef stock is used for the

Food and Atmosphere
Another delightful spot Is
Brennan's on Royal Street
which has a lovely courtyard
in back with an old world
fountain and the beautiful
semi-tropical flowers and
shrubs that are natural to

Shrimp Creole
Make a good rich roux;
one large tablespoon of bacon
drippings and one tablespoon
of -four; into this put two
onions finely minced, two
crushed cloves of garlic, one
bell pepper and two table,
spoons of parsley chopped
fine; stir till onions brown
slightly. then add one large
can of tomatoes.
Season with one eighth
teaspoon Of red pepper, salt,
two bay leaves and two sprigs
Of thyme. Allow to simmer for
As minutes.
Now add two pounds of
raw. shelled shrimp and COW
er. Let all simmer together
for another 80 minutes. We
prefer an old fashioned iron
pot; but a heavy new pot will
serve the purpose If cover fits
well.
This is a fine dish served
with rice. cooked dry. and in
a separate dish.

Bid on City Bank Stock
Rises to S135 a Share

The bid for City Bank capt.
tai stock was advanced to sl35
share on the over-the-counter
market this week end. a gain of
SIS from a week ago and an in
crease Of SIS since the first OF
the year.
With very little of this stock
available. the bid remains a
very nominal figure. but its
steady advance in recent years
reflects steady improvement in
earnings plus efforts to attract
small and scattered holdings.
The bid ranged from sos a
share to $l10 during 1856 and
was at the latter figure for the
FIRST nine months of 1857, but
in the final months of that
year 1t edged forward to Sis
and then to $3.50.
