What makes Cajun foods so unique and special?
Cajun foods are different from ordinary southern foods mainly by the spices, technique, and how it is prepared. Depending on who you talk to will influence the answer you get on what makes our food so robust and delicious.
When the taste changes with every bite and the last bite is as good as the first, That's Cajun cooking! I am Cajun and that is Louisiana Cooking.
For as long as I can remember all of our family gatherings were around the food tables filled with foods. Yes I do mean food tables, because we always had more than just one table with food. Cajun cooking brings out the best in people. From my experience, Cajuns love to eat. As the old saying goes,
”Cajun people live to eat, not eat to live.”
Fabulous food is a part of Cajun pride. It is our tradition to celebrate with food and to welcome guests with food and coffee.
We would have one table with just desserts, one table with several different dishes of vegetables, and a third table with different varieties of meats. With all the many Cajun recipes to choose from, we could never settle on just one. Everyone had their favorite Cajun delicacy to eat and/or to prepare. Since most Cajuns love to cook as much as eat, it is no wonder we always had more than just one table with food. We would start eating around eleven or twelve and not stop until it was night.
Do You Want to Learn How to Cook Authentic Cajun Food?
I want to share with you some of our best Cajun traditions, recipes and style. My goal is to teach you how wonderful Cajun foods are and how Cajun cooking differs from just ordinary southern foods. Using just a touch of Cajun spices will delight anyone's taste buds. After you experience the ‘Cajun Way’ of cooking and feasting, you will see why we Cajuns live to eat.
