Dirty Rice #BRFoodieFAM

September 15, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 1 Comment

Hi Everyone,

I’m back with another inspired recipe from my trip to Baton Rouge.  One of the stops along the way was to Red Stick Spice Company, a foodie’s paradise.  I’m telling you when I walked in that store my eyes lite up and I couldn’t wait to go shopping.  They had every spice imaginable including the biggest selection of pepper spices I have ever seen.  I think I bought everyone.   But they not only carry spices, but they also carry extract, salts, teas, oils and vinegar’s, just to name a few.
Red Stick Spice Co
I met Anne Milneck, the owner of Red Stick Spice Company and she is a woman who loves what she does. You can see the passion in her eyes when she was talking spices and food. Not only did she helps us out in the store, but she also gave us a wonderful food demo, explaining the different spices and preparation of the meal. She served us up Peach Salad with Apricot Pepper Vinaigrette. It was amazing!! Nice, light, refreshing and a sure treat from all the fried foods I have been eating. Plus she also served us a One-Pot, 15 Minute Pastalaya, which was just as yummy. Here’s a picture of the salad that Anne made.
Peach Salad with Apricot Pepper Vinaigrette
I thought I would show you my basket that was filled with all my spices. Please note this was only part of it. I ended up with two bags full of spices. He he Christy of Go Baton Rouge, said we can always count on you to shop. lol
Red Stick Spice Co
With all of my fun spices that I bought I thought I would give a try and make Dirty Rice. Remember when I had it with the Blackened Shrimp? Well instead of using Zantarain’s, why not try homemade? Oh my gosh! Amazing! I am impressed by my Dirty Rice recipe. It’s very filling, slightly spicy and has the perfect Cajun flavoring. I of course used Creole Seasoning that I bought at Red Stick Spice Co.
Dirty Rice
I got the recipe from Emeril Lagasse, but I changed it up a quite a bit to simplify it. He had you using 3 pots to make this dish and I hate using multiple pots so I made it my way, one pot deal and it turned out delish. The recipe in general is pretty easy, but it takes about an hour to make it. But well worth the time.
Dirty Rice
I started out by making a roux with vegetable oil and flour, once it turned a pretty amber color, I added my ground pork. Cooked it until it was no longer pink and added my veggies. I cooked for about another 5 minutes, then added chicken broth and seasonings. Let it cook for about 30 minutes, then I added my cooked rice, parsley and scallions. Perfect! I had to modify the measurements from the original recipe, and I was crossing my fingers it would turn out and thank goodness that it did.

A traditional southern dish made with lean ground pork, rice, veggies and flavored with Creole seasoning.
Serves: 7½ cups (6 servings)
Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp. flour
  • 1 pound lean ground pork
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • ½ cup chopped green bell pepper
  • ½ cup chopped celery
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 11/2 tbsp.Creole seasoning
  • ¼ tsp. smoked paprika
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley
  • ½ cup finely-chopped green onions
  • 5 cups rice, cooked (I used basmati rice)
Instructions
  1. In a large skillet with a high sides, over medium heat add vegetable oil and whisk in flour. Cook, whisking constantly, until roux thickens and darkens to a mahogany color; do not let burn.
  2. In a same skillet as the roux, add ground pork and cook until pork is fully cooked. Add onions, bell pepper, and celery; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth, bay leaves, smoked paprika and creole seasoning. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Taste test it to see if you need to add salt and pepper.
  3. Just before serving add parsley, green onions and rice. Carefully stir well; and cook until rice is warmed.
Notes
Note: I cooked my rice while I was chopping my vegetables. I found 1 cup of basmati rice to 2¼ cups of water worked out well.

Dirty Rice
When I made this recipe, I cooked my rice while I was cutting up my vegetables. By the time I was done cutting,  the rice was pretty close to being done. The measurements are about 1 cup basmati rice to 2 1/4 cups of water. You can use any rice you would like, just follow the directions on the package.

The Dirty Rice makes for a great alone dish or serve it as a side to shrimp, chicken, fish or whatever you desire. I simply love it and shall be making this again.

To get more information on Red Sticks Spice Company, you can go to their website. You can even order online if you desire. I will be ordering the mango chipotle spice rub. It was out of stock when I was in the store. Anyway, here is there website address.

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

🌸
I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.
🌸
Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle. 
🌻
Do you you like to go to the Farmers Market?

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
