Sure there will be. We annexed, or bought, or co-opted Louisiana and 
there is still Cajun and Creole grub ... some of it even edible. Bv)=

      Title: Potato And Watercress Soup W-Crisp Potato Pancakes
 Categories: Emeril, Soups, Potatoes
      Yield: 4 servings
 
      2 tb Unsalted butter
  1 1/2 c  Chopped yellow onions
      1 ts Minced garlic
      1 lb Yellow Finn potatoes, peeled
           - cut in 1/2" dice
      1 ts Chopped marjoram
      1 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Ground black pepper
      4 c  Chicken stock or vegetable
           - stock
    3/4 c  Heavy cream
      2 bn Fresh watercress, well
           - rinsed, tough stems
           - removed, rough chopped
    1/4 lb Smoked salmon
    1/4 c  Sour cream
      1 oz Salmon caviar

MMMMM----------------------POTATO PANCAKES---------------------------
      1 lb Baking potatoes; peeled
    1/4 c  Vegetable oil
           Salt
           Fresh ground black pepper
 
  Grate the potatoes and squeeze between towels to dry.
  
  Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high
  heat. Toss the potatoes lightly with salt and pepper and add in
  batches to the skillet, pressing down with a spatula to form a cake.
  As the potato cake starts to crust on the bottom, cover, and cook
  over medium-low heat until brown and crusty on the bottom, about 7 to
  10 minutes. Flip the potato cake and add the remaining oil to the
  pan. Cook until the cake is brown on the second side and cooked
  through, about 5 minutes.
  
  Remove from the pan and cut into 6 wedges.
  
  Yield: 6 servings
  
  In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the
  onions and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, and
  cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the potatoes, marjoram, salt, and
  pepper, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the stock and bring to
  a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring
  occasionally, for 15 minutes. Add the watercress and cook until the
  potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
  
  Remove from the heat and puree with a hand-held immersion blender, or
  in batches in a food processor or blender. Add the cream and return
  to medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through,
  adding more cream, if a thinner soup is desired. Adjust seasoning, to
  taste.
  
  Drape each potato pancake wedge with a slice of smoked salmon, topped
  with 2 teaspoons of sour cream, and 1/2 teaspoon of salmon caviar.
  Serve with soup.
  
  Yield: 6 servings
