CAJUN CUISINE
Did you know that the Cajun cuisine, so famous now, came from the Mother of Necessity? That's right.
Most of the best things in life originated there, and Cajun spice is truly one of the best things in life!
Why? Basically, because Cajun cuisine is really the culmination of the intermingling of several perfected
ethnic recipes. The passionate French-Acadian, banished from Nova Scotia by the British, migrated to the
southern-most part of Louisiana. There, t hey discovered its bounty, wild game, abounding varieties of
seafood, rich soil, and semi-tropical weather. Using these precious resources and their own imagination and
perseverance, the Cajuns (as they came to be known) developed some of the most DIVINE food in the
country. Yes, they were religious people!
