It's been said by some folks, here, beans all taste the same after
cooking. That one cannot tell which bean was used once the dish is
finished. I think I even agreed. Well, I was wrong, too.

I'm here to tell you is jes ain't so. I jes made up a mess of Cajun
Red Beans, like Red Beans & Rice. Only, I used great northern dried
beans. Know what it tastes like? It tastes like great northern beans
with a whole buncha cajun flavoring. Yep. All the best ingredients.
Fresh trinity, whole garlic, new bay leaves, Tony Chachere's Creole
spice, ham, sausage, Louisiana Hot Sauce, etc. Actually, it tastes
great!! But, it tastes like a great pot of Cajun great northern
beans, not classic Cajun red beans. So, if ya' want the real deal,
use red beans.

We've been down this road before. Find someone else to play this
game.

I don't know about pinto beans as I didn't use pinto beans. I used
great northern beans, so it's great northern beans I commented on.
Why don't you use whatever bean floats yer boat and get back to us
with your conclusions instead of attemping to engage me about beans I
did NOT use or even mention.

My mistake. I got yours and Marty's post confused. I mean I
responded to part of your... wait... Marty said... no, I meant....

Nevermind. I'm having creole/cajun northern's w/ elk sausage fer
breakfast. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!!

I discovered something else. Not any hot sauce will do. I have a
half doz hot sauces, but hadda go out and buy a new bottle of Louisiana
Hot Sauce(TM). Nothing else works.

I'd never eaten red beans and rice before I made it, but I used "small
red beans" as prescribed. What an utter and complete disappointment!

I don't mind plain beans and rice. But with the Cajun seasonings? No. Not
for me.

There are no "Cajun seasonings" in the red beans. The only "Cajun"
seasonings are in the andouille sausage that is a part of the meal.
Tobasco adds any heat and that is adjusted to your taste.

AFAIK there was no meat of any kind in there. I certainly would not like
sausage! I didn't make them from scratch. First was from Popeyes. They
for sure put a lot of seasoning that I did not like. Next was Zatarains
because my mom said it was good. I didn't think so! No doubt it was the
soy sauce and smoke flavoring in there that I disliked.

Ingredients in Zatarains:


Ingredients:
ENRICHED LONG GRAIN PARBOILED RICE (IRON PHOSPHATE, NIACIN, THIAMINE
MONONITRATE, AND FOLIC ACID), COOKED AND DEHYDRATED RED BEANS, ENRICHED
WHEAT FLOUR (NIACIN, REDUCED IRON, THIAMINE MONONITRATE, RIBOFLAVIN, FOLIC
ACID), MALTED BARLEY FLOUR, SALT, DEHYDRATED VEGETABLES (ONION, BELL
PEPPER), SOY SAUCE (100% SOYBEAN), YEAST EXTRACT, DEXTROSE, SOYBEAN OIL,
THIAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, MODIFIED CORN
STARCH, TORULA YEAST, NATURAL SMOKE FLAVOR, GARLIC, CARAMEL COLOR, SPICES.

I like it better with kidney beans than either "small red beans" or
the small, red, adzuki beans that I used the first time.

I'll bet that has a lot to do with the fact that for the first 40
years of my life 'beans' meant canned red kidney beans.

I was actively discouraged from using adzuki beans when I was trying
to figure out which bean to use. Maybe I'll give them a try sometime,
I think I have some on hand.

Your mother sounds like mine. Canned kidney beans only which went
straight into hamburger based chili. The other bean that we ate was
black eyed peas... method: open the can, heat (no added seasoning),
put it on the plate. I liked them anyway. Still do, but I can't
remember the last time I made them - I should remedy that.

When I was a kid it was mostly kidney, garbanzo, chili beans, Shellie beans,
lima beans or navy beans. Took me a few years to realize that refried beans
were not made with kidney!

What about it disappointed you? Did you use andouille?
To me, the biggest part of the flavor of red beans and rice is the
sausage. That is what adds the
personality to the dish.

Yes, I'm sure I used andouille.... but it may have been after Bruce
Aidells changed it. Not sure if he sold his company or what, but
AFAIC quality plummeted when he went national. I used to like his
andouille - not anymore.

Yes, Aidells sucks big ones. You need better sausage. Even a
keilbasa is better than Aidells.

There is no shame in *having been* wrong. You are now correct, and deserve

You know, I've lost a friend or two in the past. I never whined like a little bitch to them to try to get them to take me back. I also didn't try to imply that there was something wrong with them because they didn't enjoy my company. And I certainly wouldn't do it online using my real name. Why don't you just move on with life? Seriously. This fixation you have with Bryan is really disturbing. If I were him, I'd beat the living shit out of your faggot ass.

I didn't threaten you. And your fantasy about me ****ing you up the ass is duly noted, but I'm not interested. Thanks, but no thanks. Could you maybe look at the content of my post and reflect a little bit? Maybe be just a little less of a Bryan parasite?

I have it on good authority that Zitty is actually a butt-licker. The last
time he tried ****ing somebody, the guy kept laughing and saying "stop

John is not, to my knowledge, homosexual. He's just abandoned being actively heterosexual. His "fixation" with me is silly, but I don't respond to verbal
attacks with violence. I wish he'd get romantically involved with a nice woman, and put his interest in me in the past--and quit posting to Usenet.

Why don't you just move on with life? Seriously. This fixation you have with Bryan is really disturbing. If I were him, I'd beat the living shit out of your faggot ass.

As I've said before, I don't think he's a homosexual and if he were I wouldn't care. But he is a little faggot. You and I and he are the same age, and I know you know what I mean by the term "faggot" or "homo". Obviously you can handle the situation with him the way you want. If it were me and I knew where he lived, I would beat him senseless. *I* don't feel any need to beat him down - I'm not the friend he has betrayed online. He means nothing to me. But if I knew him in real life and he said the personal things he's said about you - beat down time.

A more difficult question is the difference between different types of
potatoes. There is a flavor and texture variation. However, more-so
than for beans, there is an incredible variation of quality when
bought from the store.

I'm not crazy about kidney beans, he-who-is-not-Bob.

Sometimes I buy a can of chili beans and whip up a quickie chili when
nobody's looking.

If I get beans in a burrito I have a choice between bland pinto beans and
overpowering black beans. I'll take the overpowering black beans.
