Boudin...Did you know


Last nite Husband was feeling generous, so he offered to take care of dinner. This means that he picked something up, bless his heart. And he went to Tony's seafood in Baton Rouge and got us some fried catfish, boiled shimp, boiled corn and my favorite the Boudin Balls!! Yum!
Did you know that Boudin is a french dish? This does not surprise me as most New Orleans cuisine has had it start in either France or Spain. For French boudin blanc is a highly perishable sausage made with pork, chicken, and/or veal mixed with milk, cognac, and spices.
In Louisiana we usually make ours with pork and always, always with lots of rice and a delectable mixture of cajun seasonings :)
