“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Cajun Meat Loaf

 

Ingredients


SEASONING MIX

2 each whole bay leaves
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cayenne pepper
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

MAIN INGREDIENTS

4 tbsp unsalted butter
3/4 cup finely chopped onions
1/2 cup green bell peppers, chopped
1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp tabasco sauce
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup catsup
1 1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground pork
2 each eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup very fine bread crumbs



 

Preparation

Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
Melt the butter in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the
onions, celery, bell peppers, green onions, garlic, tabasco,
Worcestershire and seasoning mix. Saute until mixture starts sticking
excessively, about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally and scraping the
pan bottom well. Stir in the milk and catsup. Continue cooking for
about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and allow
mixture to cool to room temperature.
Place the ground beef and pork in an ungreased 13x9-inch baking pan.
Add the eggs, the cooked vegetable mixture and the bread crumbs,
remove the bay leaves. Mix by hand until thoroughly combined. In the
center of the pan, shape the mixture into a loaf that is about 1-1/2
inches high, 6 inches wide and 12 inches long. Bake uncovered at 350F
for 25 minutes, then raise heat to 400F and continue cooking until
done, about 35 minutes longer. Serve immediately as is or with Very
Hot Cajun Sauce for Beef.
This is best using both ground pork and ground beef, as the pork
gives more flavor diversity. However, you can make it with ground
beef only. From Paul Prudhomme's "Louisiana Kitchen"
