Subject: Louie Armstrong's red beans and rice
A long time ago the National Observer had a recipe from Louie Armstrong for
Red Beans and Rice. The National Observer was put out by the Wall Street
Journal once a week. it was a wonderful recipe. Somehow it got away from
us. It is a treasure because it was written by Louie in his vernacular.
"Let the ham hock bob around in the…" It would be beyond amazing if you
could unearth this recipe. Thanks for your effort.
Hi Gail,
I had no success finding a recipe from the National Observer. There do not
appear to be any archives of their material available. I did find an actual
scan or photo of Louis Armstrong's Red Beans and Rice recipe, but it does
not have the vernacular that you describe. See:
Red Beans and Ricely Yours
His recipe is also on these sites:
Food and Wine
Recipe Goldmine
Riverwalk Jazz
I don't know what was in the National Observer. Perhaps it was from another
version of the recipe that Louis Armstrong had written down and given to someone.

Thank you so much for finding this for us. We will be eating this in a couple of days! Gail

Good Morning
In the December, 2009 issue of Women's Day, there was a cake recipe that used olive oil and dry cranberries.
I've lost the recipe. Can you help?
Thanks
