Cajun Black Magic
Bringing that flavour of America to your kitchen.
Our Cajun blend is a more traditional blend of herbs & spices with a serious punch of heat.
Exceptional for Blackening and the perfect flavour boost for stews, soups and sauces, Cajun Black Magic also makes a great rub for fish & poultry as well as red meats.
Cajun cuisine was originally inspired by rural French cooking and was developed by a people group that lived off the land, adapting through significant geographic changes and centuries of varied cultural influences. The Acadians lived from whatever was readily available to them in their environment. The traditional peasant-style recipes that they brought with them from the French countryside had to be modified to include the ingredients available in the area. These recipes usually involved meat and vegetables cooked together in a large pot of thick sauce. In their new land, the Acadians caught new kinds of fish in the neighbouring sea and grew new kinds of foods on land.
As Cajun dishes are still deeply rooted in seafood, they maintain the Acadian tradition of using whatever the environment provides. The “Holy Trinity” of onion, celery, and green bell peppers are the basis for just about every dish. Additionally, a special roux is almost always used, and spices are an integral key to developing Cajun food’s characteristic flavours.
Cajun Black Magic will have you casting culinary spells in the kitchen & on the BBQ with classic flavours and bold chili notes.
Fry it! Braise it! Smoke it! Roast it! BBQ it! Chef it!
