Louisiana Cookin’ March/April 2026

The March/April issue of Louisiana Cookin’ is a love letter to the small-world moments that make Louisiana feel like home. Take a look at the people and places shaping our food culture, from Lafayette plate lunch legend Madonna Broussard of Laura’s Cafe Two to Lake Charles home cook Katie Shirkey Leithead, who feeds her community one hand-delivered meal at a time. You’ll also meet Baton Rouge jewelry maker Madeline Ellis, alongside a lineup of seasonal crawfish recipes and spring dishes made for lingering at the table. Here’s to a delicious Louisiana spring!
