About this product

Product Information

Every year on March 19, Roman Catholic churches and households in and around New Orleans celebrate St. Joseph's Day. As centerpieces of these celebrations, the elaborate tiered displays of foods, prayers, and offerings known as St. Joseph Altars represent a centuries-old tradition established in south Louisiana by immigrants from Sicily. In Celebrating with St. Joseph Altars, Sandra Scalise Juneau expertly documents the stories, recipes, and religious symbolism of this rich tradition passed down through multiple generations. While the altars have adapted over time to local ingredients and tastes, most of the customary dishes still follow cooking and baking methods that remain relatively unchanged from over a century ago. Juneau traces the history and symbols associated with the St. Joseph Altar from its Sicilian origins to its establishment among Louisiana's celebrations, then its later embrace by multicultural communities across the United States. She also provides a guide for preparing an altar, complete with recommended timelines and suggestions for physical setup. She offers over sixty carefully selected recipes centered on delectable breads, fish, pasta, and spring vegetables. Pastries receive special attention, with detailed instructions for carving the intricate fig cake designs known as cuccidati. Celebrating with St. Joseph Altars chronicles a cultural tradition that continues to draw families and communities together in a generous spirit of hospitality.

Many years ago, I had the privilege of making cuccidati with Sandra Scalise Juneau in her kitchen. The melodic rhythm of her fingers moving across the dough lulled me into a quiet respect of the task at hand. Softly, she prayed, ' Gesù, Maria, Giuseppe . . . .' What a blessed moment I shared with Sandra. It was truly a religious experience., Many years ago, I had the privilege of making cuccidati with Sandra Scalise Juneau in her kitchen. The melodic rhythm of her fingers moving across the dough lulled me into a quiet respect of the task at hand. Softly, she prayed, ? Gesù, Maria, Giuseppe . . . .? What a blessed moment I shared with Sandra. It was truly a religious experience., No one knows more about St. Joseph Altars than Sandra Scalise Juneau--the history, the religious significance, the cultural importance, and, of course, the food., Generations of Sicilian heritage have enriched the culture of New Orleans, and Sandra Scalise Juneau's book explains the intricacies of these vital traditions, just as she has taught them in my home and at my restaurant.
