Calas, Belle, Calas Tout Chauds!

Almost lost in the rich food history of New Orleans are calas, a rice breakfast fritter. In the 19th century the calas women would call out, “calas, belle, calas tout chauds!” (“calas, calas nice and hot!”). Poppy Tooker, cooking instructor and food historian of the New Orleans culture prepares the calas for us. Click HERE for the recipe.
