Directions

• Boudin is a Louisiana staple that is prepared with pork and rice and spices, and is quite easy to make. It may be made into patties, balls or stuffed into sausage casings. In a large bowl add the cooked rice and fluff with a fork. In a large stock pot, combine the pork liver, 2 quarts of water, onion, bell pepper, celery, salt, cayenne and black pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered until pork and liver are tender. About 1 and 1/2 hours. Remove from heat, drain and reserve 1 and 1/2 cups of broth. In a meat grinder or food processor, grind or if using a food processor pulse and liver with 1/4 cup parsley and 1/2 cup green onion. You should process in batches. In a large bowl, combine the pork mixture and rice, salt, cayenne, black pepper, remaining green onion and parsley and mix well. Add reserved broth, about 1/2 cup at a time, combining until mixture is moist but holds together when squeezed. Form into balls, patties or stuff into casings. If you are making balls, form into walnut size, dip into an egg wash and then into bread crumbs and fry in batches until golden brown. Sausage may be frozen for up to 3 months.   Related
