AUTHENTIC NEW ORLEANS RED BEANS AND RICE
Just like mom makes. I recommend cooking the day before you want to eat it. It is a time-consuming recipe and the taste gets even better after 24 hours in the refrigerator. For extra spice, add a splash of hot sauce.

NEW ORLEANS RED BEANS AND RICE WITH SAUSAGE FULCHER
With Valentine's Day looming, there is still plenty of time to plan Mardi Gras dinners and this is one of our favorite dishes! I found it several years ago in Gourmet Magazine, where credit was given to Rebecca Fulcher of Newnan, Georgia. The only changes I make is to cut the bay leaves down to 1 instead of the 4 called for. I do this because it seems to us that 4 bay leaves overpowers the other flavors. Soaking the beans overnight is essential and not included in prep time.

Authentic Cajun flavor! I grew up in Louisiana and love red beans and rice; these are just like I remember. Serve with Tabasco sauce for a little kick. My family loved to splash a little cider vinegar in each bowl.
