Chef Emanuel from Dante's Kitchen in New Orleans shares his recipe for Spoon Bread. It's like cornbread but BETTER! Whatever you do, don't forget the honey butter topping. It's heavenly!
After graduation from Rutgers University, Emanuel "Eman" Loubier, owner of Dante's Kitchen, moved to New Orleans. Not finding an outlet for his botany degree, he saw two places where he could work: hospitals & restaurants. He decided he could handle the heat, so he got into the kitchen. His career includes a 10-year stint at Commander's Palace as chef de cuisine. While the self-proclaimed "Creolized East Coast boy" and his wife were making their house a home, he made a house his restaurant and opened Dante's Kitchen.

Sounds like a great recipe, but it would be better if he gave dimensions of the small skillet and an alternate size (larger) pan that could be used. (Jan 25, 2010 4:44:47 PM)
