Froggy Bottom |
With over twenty years in the writing and over 400 recipes contained within, Froggy Bottom is an unequaled compilation of Louisiana cuisine. Two former Woodlawn High School (Baton Rouge, Louisiana) Home Economics teachers, Mrs. Faye Brydels and Mrs. Donna Jenkins, have authored Froggy Bottom from their many years of teaching together. The authors say they often talked of writing a cookbook when they worked together at Woodlawn from 1974-1983. However, it was another 11 years before they actually found the time to do so. The hundreds of recipes span the tastes of Louisiana from the hills to the southern bayous. Froggy Bottom is divided into 14 chapters ranging from appetizers to desserts. Special sections include party menus and ideas, table settings, facts from the chef, and a very special Children's Corner. And, of course, a wide variety of the increasingly popular Cajun cuisine is contained in the 269-page book. The name? Froggy Bottom is an area in a small town in north Louisiana and it brings to mind the night sounds of a south Louisiana swamp. This name seems fitting and proper for a diverse collection of recipes. According to the Cookbook Collector Magazine, "Savor the flavors of Louisiana - from north to south. (The authors) packed it with useful information - and a Party section that alone is worth the small price of the book. Don't miss this one! I love it." |
