<<Not to be confused with andouille, made from ham, which we love.>> I have Kerried about buying some andouille over the web. Is it good by itself or have to go into a gumbo like shown on TV? I was thinking in an omelette or spaghetti.

<<Or maybe boudin rouge or another blood sausage. Ick.>> When I was stationed in Germany the grandmother of the family we rented from walked into our apartment when my wife and I were getting friendly. She zipped out and came back with a bottle of wine and a blood sausage. Wine was nice but I couldn't eat that 90% fat, 10% blood sausage.

OT: You are exactly right! Fabrice the truly Wonderful Chef in All Other Areas brought it out personally and served it as an appetizer with champagne. He said it was a specialty of his hometown and stood there beaming proudly as we each took a slice. I have a very strong stomach but a sensitive nose and my nose told my stomach right away that it was in trouble. I tried not to breathe, and just swallow fast. You could look around the group and see this OH SHIT look on everyone's face, and then Fabrice has to go and tell us what's in it. A couple of people grimly swallowed, but weaker stomachs slid casually backwards to the side of the barge and then pretended to spy an exotic fish in the canal, lean over and get rid of the offending bite. I saw a commercial the other night for some show with the scary Paris Hilton and friend and they were stuffing sausage. Badly. The French will never forgive us such a travesty. Notice how cleverly I wove politics into this post so I won't be banned. Now I take my leave.... to have a nice salad for dinner.
