Procedure - Cajun Recipes Red Beans- Rice
First step in this Cajun Red Beans - Rice dish is to soak the dry beans in water overnight and drain.
Place smoked hams in stock pot, add enough water to just about cover the ham and simmer for about 2 hrs. Remove ham and add beans to the stock. Simmer beans for one hour uncovered.
While beans are simmering, slice ham off the bone and remove all fat. Dice about 1-2 lbs of lean ham. Freeze the remaining ham pieces for a future bean dish or refrigerate for fresh ham poboys.
After beans have simmered for one hour, add all vegetables, chopped ham, bay leaf and dried parsley. Simmer for an additional 1 ½ -2 hours. If the bean stock cooks out or thickens, add a little water to prevent sticking.
I personally like to “cream” the beans before serving. Take a big rigid spoon and mash the beans against the side of the pot a dozen or so times, stirring occasionally. The beans will thicken and the result should be a creamy gravy. Cajun beans are served on white rice. Try complimenting the dish with a freshly baked cornbread.
Smoked Aundoullie Sausage is alternative meat choice for making Cajun Red Beans - Rice. I feel the ham stock made from boiling the smoked hams is superior in flavor concentration.
