Even a lot of charcutiers make sub par sausages/andouillettes. <br /><br />Chances are you don't like tripe. You're not alone, a lot of french people don't like it either. : j<br /><br />One thing I like to do with andouillette is to make tomato sauce from fresh tomatoes in one pan (basic pomodoro sauce) while in the other I sautee the gutted andouillette with garlic, hot peppers, and some petits lardons fumés (smoked bacon) til it browns... then I combine the pans, cook down a bit, and serve on japanese rice. It's kind of like tripes à la mode de caen, kinda like hayashi rice, kinda like a bunch of things really... But quite tasty. <br />And if you're in a hurry, just get a jar of store bought tomato sauce (eg barilla's arabiati is ok, or Panzani's sauce napolitaine) and use that. 15 minutes prep and cooking time.<br />Since you don't like tripe you can replace the andouillette with pretty much any meat... I'd go with lamb of beef. But lower the amount of hot peppers with the lamb so as not to kill the taste.Avohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15808959359850145003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5691193709206281737.post-90226955984631756392010-05-07T07:16:02.083-07:002010-05-07T07:16:02.083-07:00jaydee - lol.

Maroilles melted and cooked in puff pastry! Delicious and really not that strong... <br />Have you ever had and/or smelled durian? Now there's a stinky fruit! Some people say it smells of cheese, other say it smells of rotting corpses... It's tasty though. : j<br /><br />Inner odor detector? lol. It's just a matter of cultural conditioning... <br /><br />I wish I could invite you over and cook for you. That way I'd be sure you had gotten a fair chance of appreciating this things. Often the smell and the taste of things are surprisingly different.<br />Then again, maybe you simply don't like them...Avohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15808959359850145003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5691193709206281737.post-575984926123275332010-05-07T06:10:07.778-07:002010-05-07T06:10:07.778-07:00Jen- I'm sorry i'm going to be cringing y...Jen- I'm sorry i'm going to be cringing you out on fridays.
