Maque Choux with Tasso

[Cajunsmoke13]

This is a great dish in my opinion. There are so many variations, but here is one take. I like to add tasso, shrimp, whatever. Love this on a cold day. It would be great to make into a soup also.

4 Tbsp Butter
1/2 cup Tasso, finely diced
4 Cups of Sweet Corn
1 1/2 cup diced Onion, Celery, Green Pepper
1/8 cup Garlic, minced
1 Can of Rotel with Peppers
1/2 Cup Green Onions, finely sliced
Cajun Seasoning to Taste
1/2 Cup Evaporated Milk or Heavy Cream

I hear you on that smoked...this will be real nice when i am loaded with veggies or anytime really..

My sister makes a killer chile with smoked meat chunks....

I blanch and then freeze prolly 10-20 pounds a year of fresh picked...Sure beats the storebought in flavor etc...I dont grow corn anymore,but stuff up the road is real sweet...

Hell...with price of food these days not only taste better,but more booze money....

Great dish
I'm a big fan of those two ingredients in a big ol pot of beans of any type. Blackeyed peas, white, kidneys, you name it. I even use garbanzos in there.
