Cajun French: la patate douce (la pa-tat doos) – sweet potato
Abita Jockamo IPA (India Pale Ale) is an excellent beer, reminding us of the many European beers we enjoyed while living in Germany. Although we enjoy beer, it is not something we drink every day. Yet somehow we always seem to have various types in the refrigerator mainly due to friends bringing over beer and leaving what’s left in our fridge. Finding Jockamo IPA, we decided to give it a try with Bruce’s Sweet Potato Pancake Mix and it was a great marriage.
“Jockamo is named for the tribes of dancing, singing, chanting “Mardi Gras Indians” who have marched in New Orleans for over 250 years.” When you taste this dish you will hear the drums and start singing “Iko! Iko!…Jockamo feena nay”.
Mais C’est Bon!
Enjoy!!
