| When you are a displaced Cajun and do not have access to fresh sausage, here is an easy alternative - Make them yourself.
On a typical boucherie day when the hog is slaughtered and the sausage is prepared, the sausage links which are soft are hung outside on a clothes line until dry at which time the sausage will firm up. The day has to be a sunny cool day as the sun is needed to melt the fat in the meat.
When away from home, securing the meat needed for the sausage is as close as your local meat vendor or supermarket.

| Salmon Croquettes with a seafood surprise! |
| The crawfish boil is one the most popular Cajun meals. It is very popular at school graduation and Easter time......just about the time crawfish are running low for the end of the season. Cajun crawfish boil seasonings do the trick to perfectly season these little tiny lobsters. This is for the times you can't buy it or do not have it.
A neat addition to boiled crawfish is adding smoked sausage cut in 4 inch pieces and boil along with the crawfish. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Not yet rated |
| Louisiana known as Sportsman Paradise is popular for wild duck, goose and wild game hunting. If you get lucky enough to have wild game for dinner use this marinade; it works great for rabbits and squirrels too.
If you find yourself without anything on hand, fill a container with ice and water. Submerge the meat below the water surface. The ice cold water will help to draw out the blood along with the wild game taste that many have an adversion to. Not yet rated |
