Boudin (/budn/ boo-dan) is a type of sausage popular in Cajun cuisine. It is made with pork, rice, onions, and spices, and is typically stuffed into a pork casing. Boudin can be boiled, fried, or grilled, and is often served with rice and gravy.
Boudin is thought to have originated in France, where it is known as boudin noir. It was brought to Louisiana by French settlers in the 18th century, and has since become a staple of Cajun cuisine. Boudin is a popular dish at festivals and gatherings, and is often served as an appetizer or main course.
