Cajun, large 60 ml jar

The Cajun spice blend has its origins in the rich cultural history of Louisiana, USA, a melting pot of culinary traditions influenced by French, Spanish, African and Native American communities. 

Cajun spices, characterized by their spicy and aromatic taste, have been adapted for simple everyday dishes, transforming local resources such as seafood, poultry, and vegetables. 

Over time, this blend has become a pillar of Cajun cuisine, a symbol of resilience and adaptation, celebrating the unique blend of cultures and influences that characterize Louisiana.

 This Cajun blend combines the zesty heat of Cayenne pepper and Jalapeño with the aromatic richness of garlic, onion, thyme and oregano, with subtle touches of paprika and turmeric for color and flavor. depth.

 It is often used in dishes such as jambalaya (flavorful dish made with rice, chicken, sausage and seafood), gumbo (thick soup rich in meats and/or seafood, vegetables, and thickened with okra powder or flour) and fried fish.   We like to sprinkle it on fries (potatoes or sweet potatoes), in spicy mayo or as a marinade base.

 This blend was born from the desire of the Cajuns, descendants of Acadians deported from Canada in the 18th century, to recreate the flavors of their French culinary heritage with the ingredients available in their new territory.
