Notes
Recipe Tips:
Make sure that you are using kosher salt in this recipe, not iodized table salt!
For a touch of sweetness add brown sugar on a per recipe basis, not in the entire jar. Scoop out 1 tablespoon of Cajun Seasoning and blend it with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. This is great with seafood or pork.
For more heat bump up the cayenne pepper to 1 tablespoon and add a healthy pinch or two of red pepper flakes.
RECIPE: Try using your new Cajun Seasoning in this recipe for Red Beans and Rice (instant pot or crock pot methods!).
