Assistant Cook
And you are citing my source (that I quoted from above) to refute me. That usually doesn't work ..
This is getting really silly, but fine. Here's what it says in that article:
"The gumbo I did at Commander's was a roux gumbo," Prudhomme told Brett Anderson of the Times-Picayune in 2005. "To my knowledge, it had never been done before. It was chicken and andouille, down-and-dirty Cajun. It was what Mama used to do."
...emphasis mine. My point was that he popularized what is considered the modern form of Cajun cooking. Is it that much of a leap to say that, in popularizing something, he created a trend??
Seriously, is this a grammar checking forum or a cooking forum? And, CraigC, does ridiculing someone's (verifiable) statement make for a productive forum??
