Creole Style Jambalaya

Creole Style Jambalaya
Within the rich cuisine of Louisiana there is a key distinction between Cajun food and Creole food. Cajun food emerged from the swamps and bayous while Creole cuisine evolved in the city. Their differences are often defined by access to ingredients.

In this case with jambalaya, tomatoes were hard to come by in the bayou, so Cajun style gumbo often omits that ingredient.
