Looking for a dirty rice recipe? There are several dirty rice recipes and dirty rice mixes out there. Our family has tried most of them. The authentic Cajun dirty rice recipe calls for liver, which my family will gag when I’m cookin’ it. So . . . I tried the dirty rice mixes.
 Cajun Dirty Rice is a very popular Cajun dish down here. It is basically ground beef mixed in white rice and flavored perfectly. It is not spicy and great for the entire family. |  |
Last night we tried the New Orleans Gourmet Foods Cajun Style Dirty Rice Mix. I’ve got to say that this is the best tasting dirty rice mix out of all of them. The problem is that most of your dirty rice mixes are extremely salty. They also usually have too much seasoning or just do not make enough to feed an entire family. When I was cooking the New Orleans Gourmet Foods Cajun Style Dirty Rice Mix, I was pleased to find that the seasoning pack is separated from the actual rice mix in the package. If you find that the recipe is too salty, just don’t add the entire pack. We used the entire package of seasoning and it was seasoned just right.
 | The dirty rice recipe on the back of the box calls for four cups of water. If you know about cookin’ rice, you know that for every two cups of water and one cup of rice, your results are enough rice to feed four people. The New Orleans Gourmet Foods Cajun Style Dirty Rice Mix made enough dirty rice to feed at least eight people. You will need to use a large pot (at least a 6 quart) to cook this dirty rice mix. |
It was seasoned perfectly. It tasted authentic. My family and I give this dirty rice mix two thumbs up!
