She crab soup, a delicious comfort food

She crab soup is a rich and creamy soup similar to a bisque that made with milk of heavy cream and fresh crabmeat and a small amount of dry sherry. But how did this soup get its name? She crab soup was named as such because it is made with fish roe (eggs) therefore named after the female crab.

Cajun Jambalaya, a Louisiana original

I previously did a piece about Creole jambalaya and what the differences are between the Creole and Cajun versions. While both originated in my home state of Louisiana, Creole (red) jambalaya differs from Cajun (brown) jambalaya because it is made with tomatoes but both versions are made with smoked sausage or chicken and shrimp. Many people asked me about the Cajun version so here is a delicious recipe for Cajun jambalaya but if you prefer the Creole version, you can find it here. https://original.newsbreak.com/@tina-howell-1598289/2919366351310-creole-shrimp-and-sausage-jambalaya-a-louisiana-original.
