Pap - Pudding or Pie Recipe
by: beryl

I haven't eaten this dessert in about 50 years. This is the same dessert recipe my grandma used to make either "pap" or a pie. It's delicious!

A Cajun Delicacy
by: Rebecca

I had my first piece of Tarte A La Bouille this Easter! I was with friends in the heart of Cajun country, Pierre Part, where your popularity ranking is based upon your cooking skills!

I had to look up the recipe; as a chef, this recipe was right on point as to the real thing! Thank you for keeping our Louisiana traditions alive.
