Classic Creole: A Celebration of Food and Family

Ann Cuiellette grew up in a large New Orleans family whose mother prepared fresh Creole foods each and every day. Actually, to say that Ann grew in a “large” family is something of an understatement; she is the twelfth of thirteen children.

Ann Cuiellette has authored a new book that combines her family’s Creole recipes and stories from her childhood in New Orleans, entitled Classic Creole: A Celebration of Food and Family. The book is published by the Southeast Missouri State University Press.

Ann Cuiellette spoke with KRCU's culinary correspondent, Tom Harte.
