About Andouille

Andouille is a flavorful smoked sausage made primarily from pork, seasoned with spices such as garlic, pepper, and paprika. Originating from France and widely associated with Cajun cuisine in Louisiana, this sausage has gained popularity for its robust, spicy profile. In traditional recipes, it’s crafted using coarsely ground pork and sometimes incorporates pork fat or organ meats, encased and then smoked for added depth of flavor. While Andouille provides a rich source of protein, it can be high in sodium and saturated fats, which may not be ideal for heart health when consumed in excess. It is often used in dishes like gumbo, jambalaya, or simply grilled on its own, offering a low-carb option for some diets. Choosing leaner versions or moderation in portion size can make it a more balanced addition to meals while shining as a centerpiece of Southern and French-inspired culinary traditions.
