"I invented this version of dirty rice to accompany my husbands fantastic ribs. It's easy to make, but it does want to simmer for a good long time."

I learned to cook at a very early age, and like my teacher (mother) I am famous for cooking without recipes. This habit makes for unique delicious *unrepeatable* meals. My plan is to use this site in a way that neither my mother or myself have ever learned to use paper and pen; to record my "concoctions" for posterity.
