Episode 110: Zatarain’s New Orleans Style Red Beans & Rice with Sausage

07 Jun, 2009

Posted by: Gregory Ng: The Frozen Food Master

It’s “Flavor Fast” with this New Orleans dish. Or at least that’s what they advertise on the box. But will this Zatarain’s New Orleans Style Red Beans & Rice with Sausage “jazz up my dinner tonight” or will the flavor tones sound off-key?

Wow, Zatarains in the freezer aisle, who knew! This looked great...well sounds like it tastes great. I know exactly what you mean about the Feb/Mach slush look. Favorite bean...maybe black beans, but its a tough one.

I love freshly snapped green beans cooked in a pressure cooker with a hunk of fatty bacon and some new potatoes. When we grow a garden, we have this for dinner most nights. Can't resist it. If you want the ultimate add a THICK slice of homegrown tomato on the side.

I love beans! Black, pinto and garbanzo are probably my favorites, but I also like navy beans, great northern beans, black eyed peas, lentils, split peas... The only bean I really don't care for much is your fave: kidney beans.

I never buy a frozen food product that contains rice, because it is impossible for them to get the rice right.

What is red beans and rice without the rice? Okay the beans and sausage might be good but part of the package is the rice and you just know that rice is NOT going to be good because nobody has, to date, been able to create good microwave rice.

I also love Garbanzo beans... but black beans are great too! I'm from New Orleans, so I appreciate this review. :)

Great review....

My favorite bean would have to be the Garbanzo or chick pea as you can do so many things with it. Such as make Hummus, put it in salads and soups or bake them in the oven with olive oil, salt and pepper and have a nice crunchy snack.
