Cajun spice blend 40 g

The Cajun blend comes from Louisiana, and is a key ingredient of the cuisine of the same name, a meeting of French, Native American and African culinary traditions. Its base is smoked sweet paprika and dried cayenne chilli.

The rest is dried white and red onion, white and black pepper, oregano and thyme. Everything is dried; nothing is added fresh.

How to use

Sprinkle it on meat, fish, potatoes, eggs — anything that ends up on a plate. The blend is deliberately mild (1 out of 5) because the smoked paprika already carries a lot; the heat here comes from cayenne, and from the bottom, not the top.

Packaging

A 40 g jar with a shaker lid, so you use the amount you need rather than the whole contents to the end.

Detail

The blends are packed without artificial aromas or preservatives. Like the sauces, they are made by hand in small batches from raw material from their own growing or from nearby suppliers.
