Hearth Blackened Redfish with Cornbread Dressing

April 26th, 2023 · Comments Off on Hearth Blackened Redfish with Cornbread Dressing

Hearth Blackened Redfish with Cornbread Dressing is a large plate menu item served with crawfish cornbread dressing, hearth grilled asparagus, and blackened crab sauce at Restaurant 1796 on the grounds at Myrtles Plantation, St. Francisville, LA. We took a trip back in September, 2022 to celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary, visiting plantations in Louisiana and Mississippi. Our first stop was at the Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville, LA. I had secured dinner reservations in advance at Restaurant 1796 and had a grand time in their main dining room.

The blackened redfish was delightfully delicate and spicy, the cornbread dressing reminded me of a holiday meal, but it paired well with the redfish and asparagus. I highly recommend dinner at Restaurant 1796.

BAKED MUSHROOM & BRIE DIP on the small plates menu at restaurant 1796

This appetizer is amazing, and appears on the Restaurant 1796 menu most of the year. Located at the grounds of the Myrtle’s Plantation in St. Francisville, LA, Restaurant 1796 is a must visit and dining experience when touring the plantation. Rich flavors from the mushrooms folded with the brie and fontina cheese balanced with the hot honey and served with warmed pita triangles is a delight.

Eggplant and Ground Beef

Eggplant with Ground Beef – a recipe inspired by my mom and on page 152 in my 3rd cookbook, Complete Cajun Cookbook.

This is a classic recipe that mom made often, and found it’s way to our table over the years. The combination of stewed eggplant and ground beef with onions takes on an amazing flavor profile, an unexpected marriage of tastes.

Hoping to make some of this again soon with our homegrown eggplant, the new plants are starting to show some budding flowers, the future fruits of our labor, soil, and toil.
