Cajun Popcorn

Ingredients

1 lb Crawfish Tail Meat

2 cups Flour

1 /3 cup Creole Seasoning

Remoulade Sauce for dipping

Instructions

Pour peanut oil 2 inches deep into a skillet. Bring oil to 365 degrees.

Place crawfish in a bowl, separating the tails (Do not squeeze the fat out of the crawfish). Sprinkle two Tablespoons of Creole Seasoning over crawfish. Combine the remaining Creole Seasoning with the flour and stir to combine.

Use a slotted spoon to remove crawfish from the bowl. Toss the drained crawfish tail meat in the flour thoroughly. Shake off any excess flour and fry for approximately two minutes until golden. Be careful not to over fry the crawfish. Serve with remoulade sauce (recipe page XX) for dipping.

Apple French Toast

French toast has been a favorite since childhood—probably one of the first things I could make on my own. Pancakes were my grandmother Muz’s domain, but French toast was all mine. King’s Hawaiian Bread is always a solid choice, but if you can find a bakery that makes fresh brioche or sweet sourdough, grab it. Never been shy about my love for apples, especially Honey Crisp and Fuji. Apple pie’s always been my go-to, but this recipe takes the best part of apple pie and turns it into breakfast.

Pie Dough

This crust has been the base for countless savory pies over the years. The key is keeping the butter ice-cold and giving the dough enough time to rest in the refrigerator. For a little twist, add 1 tablespoon of freshly cracked black pepper or 2 tablespoons of finely chopped chives to the flour mixture.

Denver Omelet Quiche

I love quiche. To me, it’s great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. In the morning, it’s perfect with fresh fruit. At lunch or dinner, it pairs well with a light salad. Never use the pre-shredded cheese in plastic bags from the dairy case. It's dusted with cellulose, which messes with the texture and flavor. Always grate cheese from a block. It’s an extra step but it will save money and taste so much better.
