Hey Jim! Glad to be here and seeing your channel grow as a long time subscriber. Like the new music. Nice to see your family involved. Good food and family go together. That’s the Italian way. I get both of my boys to rate my dishes with the same rating system. Great videos! Keep ‘em coming! Best wishes from an ex-Long Islander (Italian) friend in Colorado!
So appreciate you making so easy to print ur recipes. I have printed about 30 on ur site. I can’t stop myself they all look so dang good. Tomorrow I’m hitting the store for ingredients to make several recipes. Tanks Jim, hugs 🤗 to all ur family.
Oh yeah, if the Cajun spice doesn’t take your breath away, it’s not really Cajun! This looks delicious, it is definitely going on the list of things to try!
Still laughing at your getting slapped by Slap Ya Mama! It is great that it had so few ingredients in that seasoning. I generally switch out kielbasa for the andouille - I love andouille but it is a bit too spicy for me sometimes, and I am partial to either fettucine or angel hair. As soon as I saw your beautifully cooked shrimps I had to start lunch! Mouth-watering.
I decided to try Slap Ya Mama on your recommendation. I bought a 3 pack on Amazon. Original flavor, Hot Blend & White Pepper Blend. I found all of them to be way too salty. I much prefer using my own cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes for heat.
I live on Long Island... can you come cook dinner for me so I don't have to? lol but for real, your recipes always look so good, and this is one that I'm definitely going to try!
Thanks! I almost always use 1 pound of pasta for my recipes. I hate breaking up the box. It will be 4-6 servings for big eaters or a lot more for others.
Funny, it doesn't seem like the "andouille" we have here in Brittany, France (perhaps I didn't see right); ours is an inners sausage which is delicious (not for the faint of heart though), but smells like.... well like shit, almost literally.
I really really really love the kid. He seems to be such a healthy self confident person. Kudos to dad for engaging him and empowering him. The food is just a vehicle for love and bonding.
I'm sure he has a very nurturing and awesome Mom as well! What more could a young man ask than to have two loving parents who want nothing but the very best for him.❤
Both Jim and Tara treat James with great respect for his opinions, preferences, what he thinks, and they give him freedom to just be who he is. That’s how you raise a healthy, happy, confident kid. Tara and Jim show each other exactly the same respect and model it for their children. Sometimes I think people comment more about the family dynamics than about Jim’s cooking! Jim does a top notch cooking channel and clearly works his tail off! We should show Jim some appreciation for that too!
I love your kid, you can tell how open he is to trying new things and wants to support his father. You've taught me so much. I appreciate your channel and all the time you put into it.
Looks fantastic! The taste tester not into spicy food eh? Maybe he'll grow to like it, I was the same way as a kid, couldn't handle spice at all, but in my 20's started loving spicy food.
I am very impressed with your presentation, easy to follow, regular cooks can easily do it. Your son is a great addition, Your wife as camera person, A real Family affair, I like that. I subbed, look forward to lots more
As a 23 year old who loves cooking, I fell in love with the channel over the past few days. I always loved cooking but never stepped up my recipes and this might be time!
Thank you for showing that one does not have to be the perfect chef. Your taste tester is the highlight of every video. What a handsome, adorable young man! Giving him the opportunity and freedom to voice his opinions/preferences will build his confidence in the future. Good job, Dad!
I have taught some cooking series classes to teens and I'd have them taste Slap Ya Mama and Tony Chachere's just to get them to evaluate flavors and seasonings (we made jambalaya to make a one pot rice dish for that class) and they usually picked SYM. I always thought it was mostly because they like to say it hahaha
Total agreement with James leaving the andouille sausage out of the shrimp dish becuase nice big shrimp like that have such a delicate flavor. Maybe you could use mild italian with it instead
I wonder if the reason James would like a creamier sauce is to balance the spiciness of the sausage? I suspect I would feel the same, typically I eat Andouille in dishes like shrimp and grits where the heat is mellowed by the creaminess of the grits.
Looks delicious as always! Your son's honesty is refreshing, and his twirling skills are improving. I share his preference for a creamier sauce -- partly for the taste, but more for the mouth feel.
I love this idea! I use Andouille sausage in jambalaya. It wasn't until I subscribed to your channel and went through a lot of the recipes that I realized I eat a LOT of rice. My mother always cooked pasta till it was practically mush so I've never been a fan of pasta. Your recipes have given me the courage to try pasta and so far have cooked two of your recipes that I absolutely love! I can't wait to try this one because I love Cajun food and I grew up on it.
Love these videos and it's wonderful to see this young man come on here and do the "taste test" --- so sweet and very honest!!! Not to mention refreshing!!!!!! :)
I'm going to have to give this recipe a try cuz it looks simple and easy to do and I like all the ingredients that are in it and by the way tell James I know that it was good because he kept eating it LOL
Looks delicious. Always enjoy the start of the videos where you give us a quick intro and then some gentle music and the sound of food preparation. Culinary ASMR. Thank you for sharing!
Looks terrific! I'll give this a test-drive, then likely use it as my potluck contribution for a group camping trip I organize every year. By the way, it's great to see your list of patrons is climbing the charts. Very well deserved! Those of us who are always looking to add more recipes to our toolbox (particularly those of us who didn't have an Italian grandma to show us the ropes) appreciate what you do. Cheers!
I tried the shrimp and lemon pasta...It was very good....this looks so good I think I will try this one next..I also used 2 pounds of shrimp...the more the better
Awesome. When it comes to shrimp, pasta and veggies, I'd always fall on the undercooked side. One can always let it sit for a little while if it's really undercooked.
Love this recipe, because I'm a huge fan of shellfish and pasta together. I bet it would be even more amazing with some freshly grated cheese before you plate it. But it does remind me of a MONUMENTAL pet peeve of mine. Why leave the tail on shrimp???!! I'm sitting at a nice restaurant, get a nice plate of food, then I have to get my hands all sticky and smelly prying the tail shells off all the shrimp. WHY????? I don't want to eat shells, and I don't want to muck up my fingers at a nice restaurant to get them off, but I don't want to waste food (the meat inside that last part before the end of the tail). Why dammit!? Love our channel, tho! :)
I’m so glad to see more people using the slap yo mamma seasoning. I’ve used it for a few years and it’s great! Thanks for sharing another great dish! Thanks to you and your son. 😃
Looks good my friend !! Any viewers from South Louisiana will catch the "trinity" reference. You'll find most real Cajun seasonings are not that complicated, just different ratios of the ingredients.
I gotta say… I really love how you involve your family in these videos… I believe that the joy of cooking is seeing those you love enjoy what you’ve prepared. Bravo! PS. I agree with your son… it needs more heavy cream, and maybe some lemon zest. Yumm!
I'll have to tone down the spice factor, my wife doesn't do well with spicy food. But damn, does this look delicious! Gonna give this a go soon. Quality recipes, and easy to replicate at home. Loving your channel so far, happy to be subscribed :)
This looks so good!! My family was just wondering the today what to do with some shrimp we have on hand. I'm definitely cooking this for dinner tomorrow. Personally I prefer the idea of a little less cream, but the rest of my family will probably like the idea of using more like James. We'll see how it goes! 😁
First....🎥..shout out to Mrs. Sip/Feast for excellent videography!! Always find your content & camera work tops!!...didn't realize it is her good work!... Another great dish....Why do I mess up 🦐 shrimp so much?!?..😐...I usually overcook!! Can I poach in water/lemon & Cajun seasoning and add at end?
Thanks! She actually doesn't do any video, but she helps a ton with writing for our site. She is currently learning how to take photos for the website, hence the Skillshare course. Shrimp only need a few minutes of cooking and then can be removed from the pan. You can poach them for sure. Enjoy!
@@SipandFeast Well...if she's responsible for any part of the thumbnail upload....give her a raise!!..😊..Thx for advise on that...quick under heat so not rubbery!
Love this channel! Several questions, 1. Why keep the tails on the shrimp? 2. At 76 YO I cook for one, how do you downsize ? Keep up the great work and a special thanks to James as the master tester!
Thank you! I keep the tails on becuase they give extra flavor but you can definitely remove them. If you go to the recipe on my site you can adjust the serving size as needed to help you downsize.
DEFINITELY pinned this to my Pinterest! Can't wait to try it! Thankfully I can find much less spicy Andouille...I can't handle a lot of spice but I do love me so SLAP YO MAMA Cajun spice!
If your sausage is too spicy for some guests, I've found that you can slice it or cube it and soak it in plain water in the fridge overnight (kind of like de-salinating a package corned beef that you want to grill out or smoke for an easy patrami). I've done this method with Red Hot Links and it does help some - enough to where nobody complained afterwards ;-)
This looks great! I’ll make it this weekend. I’ve made 3 recipes so far & they’ve all been a hit! That Slap Your Momma is pretty spicy 🌶. I’ll be sure to build the spice…thanks for all of your effort & delivery. I actually like that you leave your bloopers/mistakes in your video. It makes them even better to me 💁🏽. Blessings from Texas. Thanks again James for another honest & well thought out taste test.
Great cuisine..., How beloved this your Mexican or others American cuisine is succulent that I looked as home cook cuisine and even in expert level like Chef Gordon Ramsay, I feel thinking that u can made Asian foods, etc anytime, let appreciate this for cooking lessons to be a chef. 😍😎👌🏻💖 Greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩
Omg!! This looks so delicious. I'm definitely gonna make this on the weekend. Love the honesty of your son but I wouldn't add or subtract anything. Well done
Thx for readin spice mix ingredients. Those are my staple seasonings but we can’t get that brand here in U.K. ( Cotswolds not London). Recipe sounds very New Orleans! Thx for this meal. Looks yummy. Love shrimp anyway.
being from south louisiana I can personally tell you that "slap yo mama" is a Horrible seasoning. It's for people down here who DON'T know how to cook true cajun food. If you can order it, try "Cajunland" seasoning. It's basically the cajun equivalent of Mccormicks seasonall. A lot better than that other crap.
I’m from Monterrey Mexico spend few summers with family in Stamford ct and these recepies remaind me a lot those good times. Really enjoy your videos. Congrats!! Luckily I find here almost everything you use in your receipies but make’em spacier!! I like spicy hot!!
Exactly! Slap Yo Mama if she ever told you to buy most seasoning blends. The first ingredient is always Salt. Garlic Salt, Onion Salt, Celery Salt, et al. Why do people buy this crap?
I'm the cook in my family. My husband loves my cooking. He said he's never eaten anything he didn't like. Which is a very sweet thing to say. However, I've been looking for something different to make for us to enjoy. This is right up our alley. We both love shrimp and sausage, so this will be a perfect meal to make. He likes spicy foods. I think that this will be perfect. Thank you. I just subscribed to your channel keep those recpicees coming.
YUM! I’m more like James tho… creamy but not too spicy. I’m thinking smoked sausage and a tad more cream would be great! Excellent video and very easy to follow. Thank you. Now if I could only get my 92 year old dad to eat some shrimp! Maybe I can cut the recipe down a bit. I think I might be able to eat this two or three days.
One of my favorite chef’s from New Orleans (not the BAM! Guy) taught me they use andouille as seasoning. It isn’t that hot. It is smoked sausage. Heavily smoked. My sisters don’t like hot food. But I do! They like my cooking anyway. My best friend sister passed away recently from her MS. My eldest sister asked me to move in with her. She thinks her boiled hotdogs are great cooking. Yet she still wants me to cook every night. Talk about mixed messages…. I do the shopping for food. Probably you cannot share markets. Where she lives the grocery stores are disappointing. I used to get the best meats and foods, meats, produce in a small town in the Pacific Nortwest. They made their own Italian sausage. Local ranch meats tgat they aged…. I have to drive 60 miles just to get to Whole Foods. Twice the price but the local chain market prepackaged meat department rates a zero. I just moved to Florida to help my older sister. I won’t state the names of the chain stores/markets here in this region…..
When freedom of expression (for your son) can be both precious & delicious. In short, he prefers more cream & ground sausage. Next time, if you want to get a 10, you know what to do 😉👍😋
I am glad I came across your channel. Planning on cooking several of them, yet I have the problem of living in as big town/small city in west central Georgia. still looking. the other problem I have is I am single, an introvert and a border line recluse. If I cook your recipes I'll be eating it for a week. Could you do a show on quick meals for one or two? I am very please with the interaction you have with your family, especially your son. Just wondering if his friends call him "Double T" for "Taste Tester"
