Recommend me some Cajun food I should try
>>21632622Gun violence and a daiquiri behind the wheel.
>>21632622I like this guy's channel, made I think 3 or 4 of his recipes and they were all great. Did this gumbo one last month and can't wait for shrimp to go on sale to make it againhttps://youtu.be/WnpFZPxlYNw?si=aeWhF5AUC0Cdhgm6
>>21632622sausage and seafood gumbo, sausage and shrimp jambalaya, crawfish ettoufee, dirty rice, creamy crawfish pasta, red beans and rice (wanna try with smoke turkey next time)...those are the ones I've made and make when craving some cajun
>>21632622I'd say start with Gumbo/Jambalaya. Biggest difference is like the rice iirc. I personally am not a fan of combining shrimp or seafood with other meats, my thoughts being that the other meats almost always overpower the light flavor of the seafood. But you do you
>>21632622jambalaya, crawfish pie, file gumbo...
>>21632736Red beans and rice with shredded smoked turkey sounds like a great idea. My dad smokes a Turkey for Thanksgiving every year and I'll be asking for leftovers to try this idea.
>>21632892hope it goes well, gonna try in a week or two.
>>21632622BBQ shrimp and gritsNectar of the gods
>>21632622Cajun food is garbage. Complete waste of a thread.

>>21633232the best cajun cooks are white you mouthbreathing retard
>>21633639show me a white boy who plays the harmonica and does voodoo while cooking. I’ll wait.
Okra is great. The real cajuns eat a lot of legumes and venerable. Rural cajun best cajun
>>21632889cause tonight i'm gonna see my cher amiomy cajun granddad loved that song, i listened to it a lot growing uprip granddad
>>21633178>Swamp People BruceThis guy makes the most lazy shit I've ever seen. He cooks basic bitch southern food with a bit of cajun seasoning blend sprinkled on it. He's the Ja/ck/ of the south.
>>21632653First post best and most accurate post>>21632622Shrimp and grits. I do a fancied up version with fried polenta cakes. They soak up the sauce piquant, but the polenta cakes are fried well so they can stand up to the sauce without falling apart. Then there's the classics. Red beans and rice, seafood gumbo, shrimp/crawfish boils, jambalaya, grilled boudin with rice and etoufee. Tons of delicious dishes from down Acadiana way.
>>21632622The sweet asshole of a black woman directly descended from slaves
>>21633645>oooga booga>BRRRRR! BRRRRRRRRRI'm not white though, so you're not wrong.
Really expensive snapper with tons of shit on it is very cajun
>>21633645>>21633232Wtf are you talking about? Cajuns are the descendants of French Canadians who moved south hundreds of years ago. They're mostly white you retard.
>>21632622Poor boys
>>21632622boudin
>>21634477I love those. Roast beef debris is mmmmm good
>>21634491For me it is shrimp poor boys. I always say poor boys because I feel nervous to use slang out loud when ordering food
>>21634500Shrimp is great but i never say poor boy as it feels weird. They all spell it Po now
how do i get a louisiana cajun bf/husband?
>>21633232Cajun food is centered around their own preferred trio of aromatics and a toasted flour/oil mix, it doesn't get much simpler than that.
>>21634378>Shrimp and gritsnot cajunbut still good
How do I into Cajun food when I haven't ever really had any before? I'm from the US and been around a lot of places but have never visited Cajia. My only experience is with pickerel which I fucking love.>>21632718>>21633178Definitely following this
>>21633639>cajun>whitepick one>>21634462>implying that they didn't interbreed with their slaves
>>21632653This is based behavior, should I move to Cajun?
>>21635043your thinking of creoles you unequivocal retard
>>21633232>A skilled cook brings out the flavour of a few simple ingredients. This has more to do with the quality of ingredients than the skill of the cook. Bringing out simple ingredients really does not entail any skill at all. You'll tell me that simmering san marzano tomatoes and pouring it over pasta takes skill? You'll tell me that chopping a raw tuna into cubes and putting it on a plate takes skill? When those people spend 20 years perfecting cutting a tuna into cubes it's in pursuit of 0.001% increase in the quality of the final product. If I cubed a tuna you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between mine and one cubed by Jiro himself.In fact, making shit ingredients into something that tastes good actually requires a lot more skill. That's why the recipes in shit-ingredient areas are more convoluted in the first place, it's because of the superior artistry of those chefs. And their recipes take a significant amount of training to learn how to even reproduce faithfully, let alone invent.
>>21634591Anything's cajun if you use trinity and add enough filé
>>21634602What about red beans and rice?
>>21632622For me it’s cracklins, I’ll eat them til I’m sick to my stomach.
>>21636464I've had that one too. I prefer the black beans one but they're both dellicioso
>>21636605Is that cajun? I see that shit everywhere in the snack aisle of stores. I thought it was just a general midwestern and southern snack.
>>21636650These are different than the shitty pork rinds on the chip aisle. They’re fried fresh and have meat on them.
>>21636667Frying them fresh must be godly. The ones from the store remind me of dense and crunchy pork rinds with more flavor. They're the perfect thing to eat while drinking alcohol which is why every liquor store here sells them.
sauce piquante, pork steak, rice and gravy
>>21632622creole =/= cajun
i bet tasso would be real good in fried rice.
