Creole Spice

Soon we will be heading off to New Orleans, for trying all the different food experiences, but I thought I would share Don’s recipe for this spice. It is all dry ingredients and once put together, kept in an airtight container, it will keep for quite awhile.

 

  • 3 tbsp. salt
  • 2 tbsp. paprika
  • 1 tbsp. garlic powder (not salt)
  • 3/4 tbsp. cayenne pepper
  • 3/4 tbsp. black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp. oregano
  • 1/2 tsp. thyme

Now you can go ahead and make gumbo or up the ante on the shrimp you are planning on putting on the bbq this weekend. It can be put on anything…chicken, seafood. You are in charge.
