Bring the food and music of New Orleans to your table with Rhythm & Roux: The Simmer and Swing of New Orleans. This hardcover cookbook pairs 100 recipes with jazz stories, interviews, and photography, offering plenty to cook, read, and savor.

Chef Brian Landry and bassist Peter Harris, longtime friends and native New Orleanians, share the flavors and sounds of their hometown. Inspired by the meeting of food and live jazz at the Bayou Bar in the Pontchartrain Hotel, their collaboration celebrates the people who make the city unforgettable.

• 100 recipes: Explore cocktails, starters, soups, salads, entrées, and desserts.
• Stories from the jazz community: Hear from musicians including Branford Marsalis, Dee Dee Bridgewater, John Boutté, Nicholas Payton, Herlin Riley, and Stanton Moore.
• A musical approach to cooking: Chapters move from improvisations and side notes to main acts and a dessert finale.
• Photography worth lingering over: Images by Randy Krause Schmidt and Steve Rapport bring the people and places into view.
• Hardcover format: A thoughtful gift for home cooks, jazz fans, hosts, and anyone who loves New Orleans.

Keep it close for inspiration for your next meal, or give it as a New Orleans gift that brings recipes and local stories together.
