This is the first cookbook that I remember my Mom cooking from. It is what I first learned to cook from. While our cookbook collection now spans to well over 100 cookbooks, some for cooking, some for reading for ideas, both my husband and I reach for this book frequently.
WOuld not recommend Talk About Good II, however.

I LOVE this cookbook. Out of all the cookbooks I have collected, many of them claiming to be cajun cookbooks- this is the one I turn to when I want to cook something uniquely Louisiana.
The recipes are easy to follow and the results are wonderful. I have not had one recipe I have tried fail.
I only wish I lived in Louisiana where I would be able to get fresh shrimp and crab and tasso and andouille and on and on.
However, barring that, these are wonderful recipes. I particularly like the recipe for benets. Yum.

Anyone, Cajun or not who attempts to cook Cajun food should own this book. Forget Emeril, Paul Prudhomme and Justin Wilson. This is a cookbook for Cajuns by real cajuns which has been a standard in the kitchens of Acadiana for decades.

Some good recipes
It's an old cookbook that has been popular for a long time, but the recipes need to be modified for today's healthier lifestyle.

Old Standby
Only issue was with Jambalaya recipe. It didn't give measurements for spices.
But this book has everything a basic Cajun needs to cook
