I’ve made Red Beans & Rice from scratch. Bought a bag of Camellia red beans with the spice package recently. Without adding any of my own spices and two andouilles, soaking the kidney beans overnight, and adding some baking soda as the beans were first cooking with the Trinity, I’ve gotta say the Camellia spices package produced a wholly pleasantly warm delicious dish. Not overwhelmingly hot (add more heat yourself in your bowl) but just plain flavorful. I was skeptical but am really satisfied with how this potfull turned out. Five stars!
