Everyone who knows Norma Jean McQueen Haydel knows that shes a supreme cook, that shes the steward of the McQueen family recipes. But she didnt measure when she cooked. Or write things down. Norma Jeans brother Horace got to worrying about this. He cooks, too, but his repertoire isnt as vast as Norma Jeans. So he began bothering her about writing down how she makes her many dishes. I didnt want Norma Jeans recipes, or our Mamas recipes, to be lost. We have kids coming. And other folks love to eat at my sisters table, too. So the two got busy recording their treasured family recipes from the South. This collection of more than 250 dishes are their best ones. This is food you will absolutely enjoy, says Horace. Traditional, full of marvelous flavor, enhanced old-timeys! Norma Jean and Horace have put together the full line-up: Crawfish Bisque, Poblano Cream Soup, Wilted Spinach Salad, Smothered Pork Ribs, Zesty Broasted Chicken, Baked Catfish, Cajun Rice Jambalaya, Stuffed Cornbread, Five-Flavor Pound Cake, Margarita Pie, and on and on. "This is food to pass on to your loved ones!" says Horace. "Youll want to try it again and again!"
