    This appears to be much like a dish I had 30 years ago at Corinne Dunbar's, an excellent New Orleans restaurant which I believe is no longer in business. It's the only dish I still remember from that meal. Based only on perusing the recipe, I'm adding it to my cookbook and giving it 5 stars. I have confidence that this is good. Jim
