Though proud to have personally ushered in the nationwide acceptance of blacked fish specifically and Cajun cuisine generally, Prudomme became discouraged by the former’s eclipsing the latter. It turned out that so many customers were ordering blackened redfish – which became synonymous with Cajun food in some circles – that they were bypassing all of the other great dishes that define the cuisine.

I tried making blackened fish at home. Never again. Too much smoke. The hood vent couldn't handle it.

Most people blacken outside in cast iron on the grill unless you have a very strong vent hood.

Good read. I thought I saw a young Frank Brigtsen in one of those pics.

I do find it mind boggling that people now would rather redfish over trout.

You did. He posted the article on his Facebook page last week. Enjoyed it.

I didn't know he got to 500, that's insane.

I grew up going to Enola's restaurant in Carencro. Good read, thanks. I didn't think Paul ever claimed actually being from Opelousas.

Did he say he was from somewhere else? I always read he was born near or in Opelousas.

I've just always heard that he would say he was from Lafayette or something other than Opelousas. Rumor was because he was run out of Opelousas for not paying his creditors.
Might have just been a tall tale around St Landry Parish though.Posted on 3/21/16 at 11:35 am to ProjectP2294
Interesting. First I've heard of that.

My late wife graduated with Prudhomme from Opelousas High School. As the article points out he went by the name Gene back then.
