About this ebook
In this, his fourth big cookbook, the award-winning chef John Besh takes another deep dive into the charm and authenticity of creole cooking inspired by his hometown, New Orleans.
Besh Big Easy: 101 Home-Cooked New Orleans Recipes, is a fresh and delightful new look at his signature food. Besh Big Easy will feature all new recipes and easy dishes, published in a refreshing new flexibound format and accessible to cooks everywhere. Much has changed since Besh wrote his bestselling My New Orleans in 2009. His restaurant empire has grown from two to twelve acclaimed eateries, from the highly praised Restaurant August to the just opened farm-to-table taqueria, Johnny Sanchez. John's television career has blossomed as well. He’s become known to millions as host of two national public television cooking shows based on his books and of Hungry Investors on Spike TV. Besh Big Easy is dedicated to accessibility in home cooking and Orleans cuisine. "There's no reason a good jambalaya needs two dozen ingredients," John says. In this book, jambalaya has less than ten, but sacrifices nothing in the way of flavor and even offers exciting yet simple substitutions. With 101 original, personal recipes such as Mr. Sam’s Stuffed Crabs, Duck Camp Shrimp & Grits, and Silver Queen Corn Pudding, Besh Big Easy is chock-full of the vivid personality and Louisiana flavor that has made John Besh such a popular American culinary icon. Happy eating!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Besh Big Easy (101 Hone Cooked New Orleans Recipes) by John Besh.
Great cookbook on New Orleans cooking. I love the beautiful pictures and they looked great on my Kindle Fire. The format of the recipes makes it easy to read and follow. This would be a great addition to anyone’s cookbook collection.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This cookbook truly represents the heart of New Orleans cuisine. It is filled with uncomplicated recipes for Cajun and Creole fair such as jambalayas, gumbos, stews, grits, and lots of seafood dishes. Also included are recipes for the "fixins" like cornbread, red beans and rice, and salads, as well as many rustic desserts. There is a convenient list of recommended ingredients in the front of the book and interesting reading to go along with each recipe. There is also a small section in the back where the author credits many New Orleans eateries and establishments. But my favorite part of the book is the awesome photography. Wow, I am starving and my mouth is watering after finishing this book! I recommend this book highly to anyone interested in Big Easy food. I now want to go on vacation to New Orleans or at the very least, dive in to these dishes in my own kitchen. I was provided a free digital copy of this book courtesy of NetGalley
