Beans and rice are nice (lemmy.world)

I had some free brown rice to use. I knew there had to be a beans and rice recipe out there for that. The last three ingredients of the first recipe I saw included dry sherry, soy sauce and balsamic vinegar. That was a combination I needed to try.

I was going to scale the recipe up and some of the numbers just didn't look right. For example it wanted so much onion that it would overload the recipe. I took the picture of the mise en place after cutting the onion in half and knowing that the three ingredients are the end were definitely going to need adjustments. I ended up doubling all but the soy sauce just before serving.

It's getting harder to trust recipes.

But was I able to get it to work? Yes.

Cost per person: $2.45, a little more than the bread and butter.

I always support a boudin recommendation. My dream is to one day be able to buy it anywhere, since I'm only in Louisiana half a year or less recently. Although, I can generally find decent boudin in store all the way west to Houston (but not too far east from new Orleans), it is mostly in specialty meat stores otherwise. I'm just south of Canada right now, out west, and the local grocery has legit store made andouille so I take that as a sign my hoped for future is coming to pass.
