Cajun is awesome!!! Some people think its just hot, but that’s not true. There are some hot dishes, but mostly it is a blend of different spices.
The three basic ingredients of Cajun food are onions, green pepper and garlic. (called the holy trinity of cajun food). Most dishes start with these – you cook them till very soft and then you add everything else.
Another basic thing is called a “roux” which is flour and oil cooked together it can be a light roux or a dark roux and it is a little tricky to master. It is the beginning of lots and lots of cajun dishes like gumbos and stews.
If you want to try cooking some cajun dishes, please go to an authentic site – MUST be from Louisiana. Best cajun food in Louisiana is located in the Lafayette area (west of baton rouge) Not New Orleans – that would be Creole Food.
