Baron Creole Seasoning (397 ml)
Creole seasoning is a vibrant, herb-forward spice blend that is a cornerstone of New Orleans and Louisiana cuisine. It typically includes a balanced mixture of paprika, salt, various ground peppers, and a selection of dried herbs, offering a deep, savory flavor with moderate heat.
Common Ingredients
While specific recipes vary, most Creole seasonings share core components:
-
- Aromatics: Garlic powder and onion powder
- Peppers: Paprika (sweet or smoked), black pepper, white pepper, and cayenne pepper for heat
- Herbs: Dried oregano, thyme, and basil are standard additions, with some recipes also using dried parsley or rosemary
- Salt: Kosher or sea salt is often a primary ingredient, though salt-free blends are also popular for dietary controlÂ
Creole vs. Cajun Seasoning
Creole and Cajun seasonings share many similar ingredients, but generally have a key distinction:Â
- Cajun seasoning typically focuses more heavily on the blend of ground peppers for a spicier, more heat-forward profile.
- Creole seasoning incorporates a broader range of dried herbs, resulting in a more complex and aromatic, though often milder, flavor profile.
How to Use
Creole seasoning is highly versatile and can be used like a general all-purpose seasoning. It is used in classic dishes like gumbo, jambalaya, and shrimp étouffée, and is also great for seasoning grilled or roasted meats, seafood, vegetables, soups, and stews. The general guideline is to use it like salt: season the food until it is salty enough, and it will be seasoned to perfection.Â
