Cajun Seasonings are useful, whether you’re a Cajun cook or not. Try it just because it's a darned tasty, all-purpose seasoning.
For those who like a little zip to their food. Use 1 teaspoon per pound for catfish, grilled chicken wings, steaks, chops, ribs, red snapper. It's great sprinkled on vegetables and eggs.
Regular Cajun has a pleasant level of heat, enough to add zest to your food but still mild enough for the whole family. Extra Hot, with jalepeno powder, will burn unwary tongues; this one's for serious Cajun food lovers. For those worried about salt use, the Salt-Free has all the flavor you love without any salt.
For delicious Cajun fries, sprinkle heavily over sliced fries before cooking. Sprinkle a little on sandwiches from that leftover holiday turkey. Hand mixed from half-sharp Hungarian paprika, salt, ground celery seed, garlic powder, Italian herbs, onion, cumin, Tellicherry black pepper, sugar, hot pepper, curry powder, turmeric, dill, mace and cardamom. (Extra Hot has additional cayenne and jalapeno, Salt-Free, obviously, omits the salt).
To eat figs off the tree in the very early morning, when they have been barely touched by the sun, is one of the exquisite pleasures of the Mediterranean.
