Enola's Low-cal Cajun Cookbook has a Chicken & Sausage Jambalaya recipe containing tomatoes. (pg 113)

You're cracking me up, too, CC.

I even posted on the OT, yesterday, and you missed it. May never happen again.

Well there is a good example then of adding pages to a cookbook and not serving it in the restaurant as she didnt serve a jambalaya with tomato in it at Enola's RIP.

The Prudhomme Family Cookbook has two jambalaya recipes with tomatoes in them.

When I order jambalaya I always ask if there is tomato in it first. Simple as that.

Doubt they would lie about it since they dont know if I have a food allergy.

Exactly. I think it's a marketing tool. I think cookbooks are written to market to other demographics. The Cajuns already know how to cook, so they cookbooks are written for the other folks who would normally use tomato in jambalaya.

I just went and looked. If you were to ever post on the OT, that was a mighty interesting post to make. Creepy hauntings!

You like to dwell on this cookbook thing as dont you??

They have to fill pages in cookbooks. If there was only 1 recipe there wouldnt be a need to buy more cookbooks

Y'all thought I was doing some risque posting over there, didn't ya?

Yes, that story was so darn bizarre and my employee was this very prim and proper, totally grounded, staunch Catholic in her mid 50's. I don't think she committed a sin her entire life. Hearing that from her raised a question in my mind. She was freaking out because she was sure people would think both she and her husband had completely lost their minds. There was terror in her eyes.

You do realize there are two VERY BIG parts to this little equation. The first is that jambalaya is a SPANISH dish (see Paella, tomatoes are from the New World of Spain) and Louiiana history, but NOLA has no rice it is a SWLA product ths Cajun/French influence The juxtaposition is kind of interesting to consider.

I don't have 20 posts on the OT. I think you counted posts on the Help Board and the Rant.

Tomatoes are from South America. Domesticated by the Aztecs in Central America. Brought to Europe after Cortez conquered said Aztecs.

Your history lesson for the day...
