Cajun's Choice Louisiana Foods Blackened Seasoning 10 oz Shaker — Handcrafted Low-Salt, Gluten-Free Cajun Blend

Bring the heat and heritage of Lafayette to your kitchen with this versatile blackening mix. Formulated from paprika, assorted peppers, garlic, onion, thyme and oregano, the 10 oz jar gives you enough seasoning for many meals while staying low-salt, gluten-free, and free of MSG. Use it to quick-elevate weeknight dinners, finish grilled plates, or add a punch to soups and burgers without complicated prep.

How should I use this seasoning for classic blackened fish or chicken?

For traditional blackening, coat your fillet or breast lightly with oil or melted butter, rub the seasoning generously over the surface, then sear in a very hot pan or on the grill until a dark, flavorful crust forms. Short cooking time at high heat locks in moisture and develops the characteristic charred spices.

• Apply 1–2 teaspoons per serving, depending on taste.
• Preheat cast-iron skillet or grill to high before searing.
• Flip once for an even crust and avoid overcooking.

Can I use it on other foods besides seafood and poultry?

Absolutely — this blend is created for wide culinary use. It seasons pork, steaks, veggies, burgers, and even soups and stews, providing a reliable savory backbone that pairs well with dairy, citrus, and smoky flavors.

• Sprinkle on vegetables before roasting for a smoky kick.
• Mix into burger patties or meatloaf for deeper flavor.
• Stir a teaspoon into soups or tomato sauces to add warmth.

What makes this blend different from other blackened seasonings?

This formula emphasizes balanced Louisiana spice without excess sodium or artificial additives. Hand-crafted in Lafayette since 1990, it leans on natural herbs and peppers to deliver an authentic Creole profile while being certified Eat Fit and gluten-free.

• Uses whole herb flavors like thyme and oregano for depth.
• Produced locally in Louisiana with a focus on tradition and quality.

How much seasoning comes in the jar and how long will it last?

The shaker contains 10 ounces of seasoning — enough for many recipes depending on use— and stores well when kept in a cool, dry place. For peak freshness, seal the jar after use and avoid prolonged exposure to heat or moisture.

• 10 oz jar suitable for regular home cooking or small commercial use.
• Store in a pantry away from direct sunlight to preserve aroma.
• Use within 12–18 months for best flavor, though shelf-life may vary.
