First time I messed up dis sequence, my cooking tutor, who was the late Louis d'Auberge Messarveaux (and Cajun down to his toenails) whacked my hand wit' de spoon. An excellent memory aid, trus' me on dat!
“... an excellent memory aid”
I consider my hand WACKED by de spoon! I bow to all the “Cajun” cooks out there! I have the feeling that if I ever visited Louisiana, I would have to grease my doors to get my hips through them when I got back! Tell me, have you ever had a Beignet (spelling off I am sure?) If so, I would love the recipe. My son is taking his second year of French and came home with beads the other day. His French teacher handed them out to all the French class kids. I asked him how he got them and he said, “I showed my $&&%#!” (he was joking, of course).
