Directions
New Orleans Red Beans and Rice, I found this recipe in “The New Orleans CookBook” by Rima & Richard Collin. It was an incredible hit the first night with family and friends, and it gets even better the next day. I was unable to find pickled pork and used salt pork instead. Delete the salt from the recipe if you make this substitution. I highly recommend pan-baked corn bread on the side with this one see recipe #87750., Born and raised in NOLA. I’m in my 70s well remember R&R on Mondays wash day at my grandmother’s table. Kinda miss meatless Fridays mostly all sea food, Used various meats including sausages typically hot sides includes chicken fried steak & pork chops. I’m a firm believer in the adage “All things come to he who orders gumbo”
