I'm surprised this only has 3 reviews, this was outstanding!! I read many recipes and was going to make Emerils but went with this instead. I questioned his which had no milk or egg or anything, and a couple people said the flour didn't stick. So with this one, I added emerils spice to the flour. In the remoulade, we can't get adobo sauce so we made as directed but added a couple chili peppers and a splash of red wine vinegar. Amazing! and I've never made cole slaw with onions, but this too was Great!! All in all, this is a keeper!!
