Seasoning Mix
5 small bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
Rice
5 tablespoons margarine
3 cups white rice, browned (we prefer Uncle Ben's)
1/2 lb tasso or 1/2 lb other smoked ham
1/2 lb andouille smoked sausage or 1/2 lb any good Polish sausage
2 cups onions, chopped
2 cups celery, chopped
1 cup bell pepper, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1/4 cup margarine
5 1/2 cups chicken stock

1
Combine the seasonings and set aside.
2
In a heavy skillet, melt the margarine and brown the raw rice over medium heat, stirring constantly until golden-brown.
3
Chop the Tasso and Andouille sausage.
4
Melt the margarine in another heavy skillet (cast iron preferred) and cook the Tasso and sausage over high heat for 5 minutes or so.
5
Add the onion, celery, bell pepper, garlic, and seasoning mix, and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until browned (about 10 minutes).
6
Stir in the browned rice and add the stock.
7
Stir well and bring to a boil.
8
Reduce the heat and simmer until the rice is tender but still crunchy (about 20 minutes).
9
This must be stirred frequently to keep the rice from sticking and burning.
10
Remove the bay leaves and serve immediately, or pour into a long flat open pan to cool so it will not continue to cook.
11
To serve, heat the plates and press about 1/2 cup lightly into a teacup or Pyrex custard cup and turn onto each plate.
12
Serve 2 molds for a main course or 1 for an appetizer.
13
Serve with little green peas and whole kernel com.
