Welcome, it feels like this has been a long time in the making.
Stargazer Catering is a one-woman show, who is occasionally assisted by her very patient husband and family. I have been living in Louisiana now for a little over a decade, and have found my home here in south Louisiana surrounded by a very large Cajun family (which many of you refer to as normal size).
One of my joys has been to collect recipes and master various cuisines as they have caught my fancy. I believe that you can gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for a people’s history, traditions, and values through their traditional foods. Mastering Cajun cuisine is just one avenue I have explored, as well as recipes from Mexican, Indian, and Mediterranean regions to name a few.
Somehow over the years my cooking has evolved from bringing potluck style dishes and hor d'oeuvres for get togethers and celebrations, to actively planning food preparation out by ounces, pounds, and portion sizes per person. My small Washingtonian family has probably questioned my sanity over the years when discussing current holiday menus. Casually mentioning that you will be preparing 16 quarts of gumbo, 20lbs of potato salad and enough rice to ensure our Louisiana farmers are employed for years to come has been met with disbelief. For me its become a typical Christmas in the South.
For all of you that know me and have recognized my passion for cooking throughout the years, I would like to thank you for all the feedback and support you have shown me.
And so we begin... welcome to Stargazer Catering, let's create something delicious together.
🩷 Made with Care, Seasoned with Love. 🩷
