A big thank you to all who participated in the Gumbo Cookalong. I was on a steep learning curve which is what the Cookalong is all about. For me its been an exciting ride and I now have a new dish and technique to carry forward. I thank my American friends here for that.
Would anyone like a new Cookalong or do we need a break over Christmas?
As for cookalong topics, have you done paella? I have a paella pan that I have never used for paella. That's a meal I haven't had the courage to take on.
One classic US dish I can think of is chili,
Get a copy of Charcuterie by Michael Ruhlman. There is a recipe for cold smoked andouille in it (plus a lot of other great charcuterie recipes).
Cold smoking is something you can do without a smoker. I made a cold smoke generator out of a tin can and a cheap soldering iron. You can put in any kind of enclosure. Alton brown uses an upside-down cardboard box.
That reminds me, I completely forgot I had home cured/smoked Tasso in the freezer, so I didn't use it in my gumbo this time. It doesn't make a really noticeable difference, but if I have it, I may as well use it. DOH!

We use Emeril's andouille and tasso recipes from his Real and Rustic book. We tried Rhulman's recipe once, and if I remember correctly without getting the book out, it had cinnamon in it, which made for a mighty odd tasting andouille to us. Regardless of whether it had the cinnamon or not, we made it once and decided to stick with Emeril's recipe. We always leave part of it raw for bulk andouille to use in burgers, meatloaf, etc, etc.
It would be one heck of a challenge to make that one vegan, or even just dairy-free vegetarian.Carbonara would be fun and maybe not everyone will have already cooked it (or would like to improve on their efforts).
