About this product

Product Information

"From the time I was a little girl, I knew there were two things in this world I was born to do: sing and cook. I've spent my life developing my voice and my recipes, and to tell you the truth, I'm hard pressed to say where I'm happiest--in concert or in the kitchen, making music or making meals." For Patti, cooking is about love. Taught by the great Southern cooks in her family--her mother, father, and aunts Hattie Mae and Joshia Mae--Patti LaBelle has kept these family heirlooms close to her heart. But now, she invites you into her kitchen and serves up more than 100 of her favorite recipes, from treasured down-home favorites--Say-My-Name Smothered Chicken and Gravy, Fierce Fried Corn, and Aunt Hattie's Scrumptious Sweet Tater Bread--to good-enough-for-dinner-parties dishes--Shrimp Etouffee, Roast Leg of Lamb with Rosemary-Lemon Rub, and Aunt Mary's Philadelphia Buttercake. Wherever Patti goes, so do her electric frying pans and bottles of hot sauce. After her raise-the-roof shows, she often goes back to her hotel room and whips up a meal for her band or celebrity visitors. When she's home--at holiday time and at family gatherings--or just after one of her sold-out concert tours, Patti likes nothing more than to head for her kitchen and cook her Geechee Geechee Ya Ya Gumbo, Pass-It-On Pot Roast, or Burnin' Babyback Ribs. And like her bestselling memoir, Don't Block the Blessings, her accompanying personal reminiscences will fill your heart just as her recipes will fill your stomach. Patti LaBelle's LaBelle Cuisine has the recipes you'll want to cook, eat, and share with friends. Filled with the legendary diva's favorite dishes and step-by-step instructions on how to prepare them, LaBelle Cuisine makes you feel like Patti's in the kitchen with you, demonstrating the recipes and techniques that can turn anybody into a fabulous cook."

Praise for LaBelle Cuisine : "She can cook!" --Bill Cosby "Voulez-vous mangez avec moi ce soir? Oui! Oui!" --Cyndi Lauper "Patti is one of those great women: warm, accessible, and talented. This book is filled with wonderful anecdotes, making you feel like you're part of the family. The food is so good it makes you want to say, 'Hey, Patti, how about inviting me over for dinner?' Maybe Geechee Geechee Ya Ya Gumbo! YUM!" --Suzanne Somers

LaBelle Cookbook Certainly NOT as Soulful as her Voice
I picked this book because I absolutely LOVE cooking. I was looking for some new ideas or any traditional "derty souf" basics I've been missing. I long for the recipes of my relatives from Missippi who have passed on (RIP). However, I consider this more of a Southern "Inspired" Cookbook.... I think Patti puts a little too much "Diva" into some of the Southern Favorites. That is NOT what I was seeking when I picked this book. Even knowing the TRUE Diva she IS, this is not at all what I expected. Foolish me. LOL Some examples of what I mean: Her Salmon Croquette recipe calls for Salmon "fillet" (oh MY) Old Fashion Chicken & DumplinGs require a "Stewing Hen" (whuuuut?) The baked Macaroni & Cheese calls for Muenster Cheese (hmmmm?) The Carrot Cake recipe calls for cans of carrot BABYFOOD but NO shredded carrots (????) Potatoe Salad uses Red Potatoes (wow?) But by ALL means, if you want to add a classy touch to your Southern Inspired dinners this book is for you. (I plan to re-sell mine) *IF U know any "durty souf" style cookbooks, please message me here :-) ****I write these reviews & guides for you, so if you found this guide helpful in ANY way, please let me know by clicking/indicating below. Upon your responses, I will continue to write these guides & help out as time permits. No responses, I will consider it a waste of my precious time....Read full review

This is THE book!
This soulful cookbook is great for those just starting out or the more seasoned cook, looking alternative tweaks to the recipes already in their arsenal. Last but certainly not least, it has THE recipe for Patti's/ Norma's infamous Sweet Potato Pie!
