A Classic French Recipe: Coq au Vin
SUMMARY: Classic recipes often stem from necessity, such as the staple diet of rice and beans found in many poor countries. Dishes like gumbo and jambalaya utilize local, affordable ingredients. A prime example is coq au vin, made from an old rooster and slowly braised in red wine with bacon, mushrooms, and pearl onions. Key to this dish are herbs like bay leaf and thyme, while quality ingredients and technique greatly enhance flavor. It’s essential to take your time during cooking, perhaps enjoying a glass of wine in the process. Serving with ample sauce is crucial for a delightful dining experience.

SUMMARY: Five years after its restoration began, a grass-covered lot in Moss Point is evolving into a diverse Bayhead Swamp. Initially dominated by invasive grasses, the area has transitioned through ecological succession, where shorter plants gave way to shrubs and young trees. This transformation is often misinterpreted as a mess, but it is a natural process crucial for creating stable habitats. As shrubs and young trees expand, the view will eventually open up, revealing a mature swamp. Understanding this progression underscores the beauty and importance of restoring natural ecosystems, moving away from the human tendency to impose neatness on nature.
