NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Paul Prudhomme, the Cajun who popularized spicy Louisiana cuisine and became one of the first American restaurant chefs to achieve worldwide fame, died Thursday. He was 75. Tiffanie Roppolo, the CFO of Prudhomme's businesses, told The Associated Press that he died early Thursday after a brief illness. Prudhomme became prominent in the early 1980s, soon after opening K-Paul's Louisiana Kitchen, a French Quarter diner that served the meals of his childhood. He had no formal training, but sparked a nationwide interest in Cajun food by serving dishes - gumbo, etouffee and jambalaya - that were virtually unknown outside Louisiana. The distinctly American chef became a sensation at a time when the country's top restaurants served virtually nothing but European food. Copyright © 2015 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

My deepest sympathy to the family of Mr. Prudhomme. Never had the pleasure to meet him, but loved to watch him on TV. He would say "Onn yoon" for onion, and IT STUCK ON ME! I eat Onn Yoons! Not onions. May God Bless and Keep you. May he RIP.

What a kind, gentle man he was. I had the opportunity to meet him several times when he visited the company I worked for and enjoyed his stories about his mother who would cook with fresh herbs from their garden.
Several years ago, as a thank you for assisting on one of his visits, he sent a large peace lily to me at work. It is still thriving and reminds me him every day.
My condolences to his family and those close to him.
