Creole Seasoning had its beginnings in the beautiful state of Louisiana. This mild seasoning blend is something used interchangeably with Cajun seasoning, despite Cajun seasoning often being significantly spicier. This is because of the close association between the two cultures and cuisines. Of course, the differences no matter how subtle are highlighted through the flavors of the cuisines, even if the ingredients feel similar.

The Story of Organic Creole Seasoning

This seasoning is inspired by some of the most delicious cooking you will find in New Orleans. Just the perfect level of peppery, this blend is a perfect companion to many dishes and is great to have around when you just want a dash or so of that famous creole flavor.

It is important for us to introduce organic versions to our lineup of fan favorites and classic blends. Creole seasoning is a classic across the American south, and it is an essential part of many dishes. This blend is so well loved that you can even do a quick online inquiry and find a handful of stories about people searching for it in weird parts of the world, and then giving up the search to create their own version of this comfort food classic. Our number of organic products is growing all the time, and with that comes the addition of more organic blends. Creole seasoning is absolutely a must-have for every organic pantry.

Flavor Profile

Our Organic Creole seasoning is savory with a nice kick from the cayenne chile that quickly transitions into the peppery bite of the black pepper. This gives way to an herby flavor thanks to the basil and thyme.

Where to Use

Use Organic Creole Seasoning anywhere that you would use the conventional blend. It's delicious in soups and stews, especially those that will feed an enormous group of people. It is tasty with corn on the cob and can be used as a popcorn seasoning.

Use it on rice or with many different pasta dishes. You can even get that creole flavor in a plain pasta dish. This is an easy recipe that can be used during nights where you just don't feel like making a huge meal, but you want some huge flavor. Boil a pound of your favorite pasta and cook until it's done to your liking. Any pasta will do, but something small like penne or a spiral pasta like fusilli works best. Drain your pasta and then add a dash of olive oil, stirring in more as you see fit. Using just enough to thinly coat the noodles is ideal. After this, dish out the pasta and then sprinkle on about a teaspoon of parmesan cheese and a teaspoon of this creole seasoning. Stir until the cheese and spices are evenly distributed and then enjoy. This pairs nicely with roasted vegetables, root vegetables.

Dips, deviled eggs, on potato chips, or even guacamole would all taste excellent with this seasoning blend. If you make your own roasted nuts, this is a nice choice for a flavor. You can use this blend with any kind of seafood and it would be a great addition to a low country boil.
