What is "dirty rice"?

Dirty rice is simply rice dressing. While some parts of the nation may eat cornbread dressing, Louisianans maintain their love affair with rice. In our section of the country, when we have holiday, Sunday or even everyday meals that include dressing, chances are pretty likely that it will be made with rice.

Andouille and Boudin (ahn-doo-ee and boo dan)
