Best of the Best from Louisiana Cookbook II: Selected Recipes from Louisiana's Favorite Cookbooks (Best of the Best from Louisiana II)

This book of recipes is awesome. I love Louisiana food and am so glad to have the recipes now.

I have had this book for years and also the Best of the Best from Louisiana II. This is a great book (and set) to own. I have many friends out of state and out of the country and I always use this book for personal gifts. Everyone is always thrilled to receive it. I live outside of New Orleans proper and the recipes are authentic and delicious, a great combination of most of the best recipes of the state. This book is truly the Best of the Best!

I've had this cookbook for 2 years now and have tried many of its recipies...They are SO GOOD! This cookbook gives a wonderful variety from many southern references of traditional and some contemporary creations. This is the most used cookbook I own. Really great!!

All the recipes I've tried from this cookbook have been great.

I grew up just outside of Baton Rouge, so I know what "authentic Cajun food" is supposed to be. The recipes in here are a compilation of recipe books my mother used: River Road Recipes (I & II), Tiger Bait, Jambalaya, Talk About Good, and a bunch of others (hence the name...Best of the Best). Most of the recipes are pretty straight-forward and easy (though occasionally time-consuming). My wife and I both love to cook, and when she lets me cook, this is the first book I pull down. Be sure to try the "Jambalaya Bread Pudding" recipe (from the cookbook titled "Jambalaya"). Every time I bake it, I get asked for the recipe.

The best compilation of Louisianna cuisine. Everything from appetizers to desserts!
