Description
It would be wonderful to know that your cookbook will become a classic when you are writing it. Unfortunately it is impossible to predict what the zeitgeist will demand. But Who’s Your Mama, Are You Catholic, and Can You Make a Roux? seems to have met the test of time. We talk with Marcelle Bienvenu, whose title is intriguing and so is her story.
