Sounds good!

We eat appetizer-ish type things on new years eve...we do the same thing
christmas eve. Occasionally for NYE I'll grill steaks up as well...I
have newborn twins, so I doubt I'll be feeling that motivated.

Congratulations! I cannot even imagine. I'd send you some of this if I
could, but I am helping a friend with a party instead. I am making tortiere
from Graham's recipe for it.

Emeril Lagasse's recipe for tortier is excellent.

I'm sure it's great, but I am from the frozen north so I think of the
recipes of Arcadians rather than Cajuns for New Year's. Graham lives in
Canada, so it looks like what I remember.

You don't mind if I laugh, do you?

Emeril was born and raised in 1959 in Fall River, Massachusetts, of a
French-Canadian father and Portugese mother. He went to culinary school
in the NE and worked in restaurants there until he went to New Orleans
in 1982.

The Cajuns (French for "Acadians") migrated to the US from French Canada.

As half Arcadian I know all that, but believe me, the cuisine is very
different. Emeril weas born in Mass but has established and led his kitchen
life as an adopted Cajun chef. So pardon me if I point out to you there is
very likely no resemblance between what I ate for New Year as a kid and what
Emeril makes.

Why do people here pull out Wikipedia all the time as if they can't say what
they mean on their own? You wish to teach this pig to sing, so do it
yourself. Fortunately, I already know the hallelujah chorus on being French
Arcadian. Which should be clear from the disctinction I made when I said I
wanted to make Arcadian tortiere rather than Cajun tortiere. Little girls
from Maine are read Longfellow in their cradles.

I'm sure the Italians will enjoy it, wherever it's from!

I think I am making them as an excuse to go off my diet. What do the
Italians know? They couldn't care a whit.

Would you post the recipe, please?

Most of my cousins, all older than I, married French-Canadian women
and every one made tourtiere, all different. I liked them all,
but in those days I was too young to think of asking for recipes.

I'd like to try making it this year.

TIA,

glortia p
