Steps:
- In a large pot or a Dutch oven, heat the fat, lard or oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Cook, stirring, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the cumin and thyme and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the beans, salt, hot sauce, bay leaves, and enough water to cover the beans by 2 inches. Bring the mixture to a boil. Immediately reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 1 ½ hours. Uncover and simmer until the beans are tender and the sauce has thickened, 30 to 45 minutes, adding more water if necessary. Remove and discard the bay leaves. Serve over the rice, topped with the scallions. Garnish with the parsley.
AUTHENTIC LOUISIANA RED BEANS AND RICE
Authentic Cajun flavor! I grew up in Louisiana and love red beans and rice; these are just like I remember. Serve with Tabasco sauce for a little kick. My family loved to splash a little cider vinegar in each bowl.

RED BEANS AND RICE
Every Monday, you can find a pot of red beans and rice cooking in someone's kitchen in New Orleans. The food writer and New Orleans bon vivant Pableaux Johnson's house is no exception. The dish, an easy meal from when people used to reserve Monday to do the wash, was once made with the pork bone left over from Sunday supper. In this version, Mr. Johnson strongly encourages the use of hand-made Louisiana Andouille, but smoked sausage will do.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, cover beans in water and soak for at least 4 hours or overnight. (Water should cover beans by at least an inch.)
- In a large, heavy pot, brown sausage in 1 tablespoon of oil until slightly crisp. Add remaining oil, then the garlic and onions. Sauté over medium heat until onions become transparent and limp. Add celery and bell pepper and sauté for 5 minutes.
- Pour soaked beans and water into the pot and bring to a simmer. Add black pepper, cayenne, salt and all herbs except parsley.
- Cook until beans are softened, about 11/2 to 2 hours. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Fifteen minutes before serving, remove 1 cup of beans to a bowl and, using a fork, mash them and stir back into the pot to enhance the creamy texture of the dish. Add parsley and green onions. Simmer about 15 minutes, taste and adjust seasoning, and add up to 1 cup more water if beans seem too thick. Remove bay leaves. Serve over white long-grain rice.

RED BEANS AND RICE WITH ANDOUILLE
My take on the classic NOLA dish. Make sure to use fresh dried beans, or the cook time may increase (ranchogordo.com is a good source). I do a quick brine on the beans - soak rinsed and picked through beans with 1 TBSP kosher salt in 6 cups water for about an hour. Drain and rinse before adding to pot.

Steps:
- While the beans are brining, chop / slice the vegetable and meat ingredients.
- Saute the bacon in a large dutch oven over medium heat until it has rendered most of its fat, but only slightly started to brown.
- Add the onions and a pinch of salt and cook until translucent, about 8 minutes.
- Add the bell pepper and celery, cook 4 minutes until starting to soften on the edges. Then add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Move the bacon vegetable mixture to the sides of the pan, add the sausage in the middle and lightly brown both sides.
- Add the spices (black pepper, cayenne, salt, bay leaves, basil, and sage), drained beans, and water, making sure the beans are submerged by at least 1". Bring to a boil, boil 15 minutes.
