THE BEST JAMBALAYA

From one of my favorite cookbooks, The Best of The Best from Louisiana. With my many travels to New Orleans, I haven't found a Jambalaya that beats this one. It's a tad laborious and requires some time but it's well worth it. I usually double up the recipe as it holds very well. I also find it tastes better the next day.
