Since 1899, Vaucresson's Sausage Company has produced its beloved brand in the Seventh Ward of New Orleans. Julie Frederick Vaucresson is the granddaughter of pioneering surgeon and businessman Dr. Rivers Frederick. She currently operates Vaucresson's with her husband, Vance, and here she tells both families' stories and shares scores of recipes using both the sausages and a new line of mustards. Also included are classic dishes from the fabled Bourbon Street Vaucresson Cafe Creole (circa 1963-72) along with other homestyle recipes from the Frederick family, with color photographs of many of the recipes.
