Sort by: Most Helpful Show Most Helpful Most Positive Least Positive Newest Rating: 5 stars 12/27/2006 I've made this as elementary school teacher gifts for the past two years, and the teachers love it. I omit the cayenne and halve the amount of black pepper, then call it "Kid Friendly Creole Seasoning." I keep a batch of this in my cabinet and use it in many things: steak on the grill, baked chicken, in soups and stews, while cooking ground turkey or ground beef; anytime a little kick is needed. I even used it on my Thanksgiving turkey. Thanks for the recipe! Even my picky 6-yr old and 8-yr old kids eat this. Note: to reduce the salt, use Kosher salt; gives it a nice texture without as much salty taste. Rating: 5 stars 06/21/2003 Thank you, thank you, thank you. I needed some Cajun spice blend for a recipe the other day and paid $4 for a bottle of Emirel's. I was so disappointed in the taste. I love this and more importantly, I can make two versions - hot and mild depending on who I am cooking for. Thank you so much. This is so much better than the purchased type. Rating: 5 stars 03/29/2005 Watch out Emeril, Joslyn's in town. I was concerned this would be too spicy with all the peppers, but it's just the right kick. It worked great on the Oven-Fried Catfish recipe on this site. I mixed two tsp seasoning and 1/3 cup ranch dressing for a dip for cauliflower. SO YUMMY! Halving the recipe will make plenty to last a while. Fun to put together. Did look great as a mix. Add to mayo or ranch dressing for any kind of dip. Perhaps it was just a bit salty tasting. Might do a pinch less next time. Rating: 5 stars 06/20/2007 This seasoning is super good I just mixed it up and added olive oil to it to thin it out and brushed it on some thick cut pork chops and grilled them great flavor will be using this alot!!!! Thanks so much :) Rating: 5 stars 03/26/2012 This is the best Creole Seasoning, and overall seasoning, I have ever tasted. First, I tried making it exactly as the recipe says and it was great. For my second time, I adjusted it slightly by only adding 1/3 of the salt (for my dad with hypertension) and replacing a generous ½ tablespoon of the paprika with crushed red pepper flakes. It got unspeakably incredible! Also, I mixed 2 tablespoons of the seasoning with equal parts olive oil and Sweet Baby Ray’s original barbeque sauce plus a dash of brown sugar, mixed them and brushed the mixture over some beer brats on the grill. It was the most delicious barbequed dish I have ever tasted- bar none! My boyfriend also says it is equally delicious on ribs, chicken, Chex Mix and steak fries. Enjoy everyone! Rating: 5 stars 06/15/2005 Wonderful! I cut down on the cayenne for my little ones, and it was still really good. I used it on baked tilapia. I will keep this on hand and use it often! Rating: 5 stars 07/05/2006 Creole Seasoning Blend is a big hit at BBQs and reheated for an indoor dinner. It's a great investment because once you mix the blend, it can be used for so many easy, delicious chicken dinners. Rating: 5 stars 01/26/2003 Yeah! I halved the recipe, and when it was all made I loved how pretty it was. And it tasted wonderful! I tried just a fingertip's worth of it and it's very spicy with a great tang to it. Using it in jambalaya tonight, but I think I'll use it for a lot of things. Rating: 5 stars 12/29/2001 Great blend for the oven jambalaya. Easy to mix up and keep. I have used this on chicken and porkchops as well. Rating: 4 stars 04/28/2012 This is a good, and pretty standard, recipe. I've made it this way for a long time, however I don't like salt and this is a no-salt eating family. Yet if you leave out 3 tbs of a zero hot ingredient, you'll get a bit more spicy, so to make up for that, I increase the garlic powder, onion powder and basil to 3 tbs each. That makes up the salt difference and it's really REALLY good that way. Rating: 5 stars 12/13/2001 A good blend for anything. A little spicy for the kids but what do they know??? I highly recommend mixing up a batch and keeping it near the stove. Rating: 5 stars 12/24/2005 A rub that will make Emril Lagasse smile Rating: 4 stars 07/21/2011 I'd rather control the salt myself so I left it out and, in deference to Hubs' sensitive innards, I cut way back on the cayenne. This is a little heavy on the oregano for me. Rating: 5 stars 10/01/2010 I'm from the panhandle and love my southern cajun cooking so I know what real creole tastes like...and this is it people. Put it on everything! Rating: 5 stars 06/24/2010 Popcorn! This makes seasoned popcorn that will knock your socks off. (and that, dear readers, was a secret given to me by friend in Opelousas, LA) Rating: 5 stars 08/22/2010 Good golly, Miss Molly was this ever good! It took no time to mix together and the seasoning amounts were perfect. Just a slight hint of warmth but nothing to worry about for those who don't like hot/spicy foods. In fact, those who like their food on hotter side could probably add more cayenne, but I thought it was perfect as written. I used it on a shrimp and spaghetti recipe from this site and I couldn't tell the difference from what's served in a fine restaurant (I used to eat out a lot). This has to be among some of the top recipes found on this site, actually should be 6 stars! UPDATE....I used this recipe for my fried turkey marinade, found on this site. What a lifesaver. Soooo easy and delicious. Thanks again. Rating: 5 stars 10/21/2010 Amazing blend that will forever replace the generic store Cajun seasonings in my cabinet. I used it tonight in Boudreaux's Zydeco Stomp Gumbo, and I couldn't have been happier w/ the results. I'm going to give this Creole blend as little gifts this holiday season, and maybe include the Gumbo recipe along w/ it. Thanks Joslyn for a fantastic alternative to store seasonings, and one that I can adjust to our family's taste (less salt, less spice etc ...) But PERFECTION as written! Rating: 5 stars 05/30/2011 I make this recipe exact, no changes. Stomps the processed creole seasoning into the ground. I won't ever go back to processed again. Not only does it taste much better but it's cheaper, too. NOTE: I do tell you that it's best that you make this in large quanities, I like to at least triple or quadruple the recipe and keep it in a large Ball jar. When I have all the spices in the jar, all I have to do is slap on a lid and have one of my kids shake to his heart's content. Rating: 5 stars 12/23/2010 I had the site calculate the recipe for 300 servings, then another 100 to give as gifts. I leave the salt out completely and adjust other seasonings to my taste. Its been a huge hit. Rating: 5 stars 12/31/2011 Omitted the salt and halved the cayenne. Was perfect for my family's taste. Rating: 5 stars 10/05/2012 I made a double batch of this, and keep it in a jar in the frig. I first used it for jambalaya, and I have since used it on roast chicken, roast beef, roast pork, chicken fingers, even shrimp. It is a great all-purpose seasoning with a nice kick to it. Thanks so much! Rating: 5 stars 09/02/2010 Love the seasoning, didn't have white pepper so I just used more black pepper. Worked great. Rating: 4 stars 01/15/2011 Looks and tastes great! I chose to make only 4 servings; 1 tsp. each of garlic & onion powder & black pepper & hot chili powder & paprika & salt and 3 tsps. pizza seasoning (much like Italian seasoning; my spice rack is running low). I went with what I had, and I think it'll do great on my take on buffalo shrimp (from this site) tonight. Rating: 5 stars 09/28/2010 I made a batch of this to use in a recipe for Gumbo and now I pretty much sprinkle it on just about everything I make. I love it! Rating: 3 stars 01/18/2012 Just the average spice mix....nothing grand about it. Thanks for sharing the recipe though. Rating: 5 stars 07/28/2010 Tasted great in vegetable soup. Rating: 5 stars 07/11/2011 This recipe is the best thing I've ever found on AllRecipes. I took a large used onion powder jar, filled it with this blend, and colored and taped a Creole Seasoning label onto it. Bay leaves are also good to add to the jar, and to the pot. I have already had to remix and refill it! Thank you Joslyn!! Rating: 5 stars 09/02/2011 @Forever Endeavor12 How did you expect it to taste if you didn't use the ingredients instructed. Using Chili Powder will make this seasoning taste drastically different. Rating: 5 stars 06/01/2011 Love it! I added more thyme and a little lemon pepper for some brightness. I use this is in rubs for meats, but my favorite is using this on seafood especially in fish & shrimp tacos! Marinate the fish and shrimp for 10 minutes in 2 tbsp. of Creole Seasoning, juice of a lemon, and zest/juice of a lime. Cook in a skillet with half of the marinade til opaque. Soooooo good!! Rating: 4 stars 06/19/2011 Skipped the salt, tastes great! Rating: 5 stars 10/27/2007 I used smoked paprika and used 1/2 t less cayenne because I thought it'd be too hot. Next time I make this I'd used the full amount of cayenne, it wasn't too spicy. Really good pressed onto salmon filets and baked or grilled, and really good mixed into rice. Rating: 4 stars 03/03/2012 This spice blend was wonderful on wings! Like a previous reviewer, I omitted the cayenne and halved the black pepper so my toddlers would eat it. The whole family enjoyed it! When using on steak, use sparingly. Rating: 5 stars 04/15/2008 This is great! Thanks! Rating: 5 stars 04/28/2012 Quick, easy, tasty. Make a big batch and use it to flavour all sorts of dishes. Rating: 5 stars 01/31/2008 Wonderful blend. Used it in Caroline's "Authenic Louisana Red Beans and Rice" found on this site and it turned out terrific. This is a keeper. Rating: 5 stars 02/17/2012 Perfect! Rating: 5 stars 10/19/2010 The title says Creole, but this is good on just about everything! Try it with slow cooked pork chalupas from this site. Rating: 5 stars 06/11/2003 This is an excellent spice that should be in everyone's cupboard! It IS hot but the flavors still come through! I used it in a pasta dish tonight but can't wait to use this on many dishes in the future. Remember - add this spice to your meal in small increments! More can always be added but it cannot be so easily taken away! Didn't change a thing! Thanks Joslyn! Rating: 5 stars 11/09/2010 I used this for the Colleen's Slow cooker Jambalaya recipe and it worked out so well! It made a huge batch though, and I now also use it for chicken dry rubs, eggs, cajun burgers...everything. Its so delicious! Its a little salty and I like salt, but it was too salty for a few family members. Rating: 5 stars 11/01/2005 This is an excellent blend! I used it with the Shrimp Creole IV recipe on this site. I was very impressed! Rating: 5 stars 08/20/2011 Excellent! Will add to my permanent collection. Thanks so much for sharing! Rating: 5 stars 03/06/2010 This is really good, just as good as any store-bought Creole seasoning blend. What I love is that you can scale the heat and, most importantly for those of us on a low sodium diet, the salt. I made mine exactly as written but added no salt to it. When I cook with it I just add the salt separately to taste. A perfect healthy, delicious spice blend! Rating: 5 stars 06/23/2010 I love this sight. I needed seasoning for a recipe on this sight and didn't have it on hand. All I did was search and this recipe came up and my dish came out perfect.. Thank you thank you for submitting. Rating: 5 stars 01/29/2012 I use this for an every day seasoning. Soups, stews, rubs for bbq. Wisk some into eggs for scrambled eggs. There is nothing this doesnt work on! Ive even added it to flour when i dredge chicken for frying. Rating: 5 stars 11/09/2010 Love it! I did however, use half the amount of salt and a little less cayenne pepper. Rating: 5 stars 02/24/2012 I've used this recipe for years in jambalaya. Great spice mix! Rating: 5 stars 11/02/2008 This is my go to spice blend for creole's and also blackened fish. Rating: 5 stars 11/21/2010 Perfect amount of spice and cajun flavor - even my boys LOVED it! I only used 1/3 the amount of salt though, as we are reducing our salt intake. Came out absolutely amazing - so good that I am considering making bottles for Christmas gift giving. Thank you for sharing! Rating: 4 stars 03/05/2009 Very good and thanks to other reviewers for suggesting this mix as a holiday gift. My bride has never enjoyed any of the store bought Creole mixes, but loved this combination. Very well done! Rating: 5 stars 08/18/2012 This is a really nice blend. Had to omit the onion powder (allergy) and decrease the salt to 2 T. Being in control of what goes into a seasoning blend is wonderful. Thanks, Joslyn Rating: 4 stars 01/05/2011 This is very good and a close copy cat of Emeril's essence. I happened to have it (Essence) on hand and taste tested the two. This was a just slightly warmer in heat from the cayenne while Emeril's was a little more herby (Thyme-y) and had a little "brighter" flavor. This made a large batch too. I used this to make Cajun roasted potatoes and some cajun meatballs and it really adds some heat. Both dishes turned out fairly spicy and I like lots of spice, but they almost bordered on too much heat for me. Thanks for a great recipe! Rating: 5 stars 08/10/2011 Perfectly simple and way less expensive than buying the spice itself. Rating: 5 stars 03/21/2011 Great mix to have, I like how you can almost use this on anything! Rating: 5 stars 11/19/2011 A great base recipe for a seasoning I use on so many things! I will cut back on the salt next time, or leave it out completely so I can adjust the amt depending on what I am cooking. You can also use this as a blackened seasoning by adding a little sugar and nutmeg to it! Rating: 5 stars 12/11/2005 I love this stuff! I didn't have cayenne on hand so I used Mexican chili powder and it seems to do the same trick! Yum! Rating: 5 stars 09/04/2003 Loved the Creole Seasoning. Great in the Baked Jambalaya. Instead of measuring in tablespoons, I used teaspoons in the same amounts. (I wasn't sure that I wanted a large volume.) It worked out fine with extra for grilled chicken. Rating: 5 stars 01/11/2012 I made as directed but reduced the sodium to one tablespoon. Great on fajitas and used for Jambalaya. Rating: 5 stars 01/09/2011 Used Christmas 2010 on fried turkey and Rocky used with shrimp in butter with celery and onion Rating: 5 stars 02/16/2011 I love this seasoning it is very tasty and not too spicy. Rating: 5 stars 03/16/2011 Easy & yummy. Made as written. Kids would find it a little spicy but was PERFECT for me! Rating: 5 stars 06/11/2010 Delicious! I didn't change a thing. Used on baked tilapia, and the flavor was spectacular. The recipe yielded quite a bit, so I'll be using this again very soon on something. I like the idea of adding less or no salt and cayenne and kicking up the flavor as needed in specific dishes. Will definitely use and make again. Rating: 5 stars 03/05/2011 February 2011 Rating: 5 stars 04/01/2011 I used it on frozen tilapia filets I had, which I then pan seared. Came out wonderfully as a blackened fish dish. Rating: 4 stars 09/08/2010 great on steak, chicken, fish or potatoes, even eggs! Rating: 5 stars 05/02/2003 Great seasoning blend. It makes quite a bit-but it's good to have handy to add to dishes to give it some flavor. Rating: 1 stars 04/12/2010 This is way too hot Rating: 5 stars 10/18/2011 In case you pull this recipe up separately, it calls for it specifically in Oven Baked Jambalaya by Joslyn, also...out of this world! Rating: 5 stars 03/12/2012 Excelent: I enjoyed this blend with pork chops, mixed with ground beef and it made a great dip when added to low fat yogurt Rating: 5 stars 09/09/2010 great for grilling & baking meats Rating: 5 stars 05/05/2011 Excellent recipe! The first time I made this I was out of cayenne pepper. I substituted the cayenne for a tablespoon of chipotle chile pepper which turned out incredible. Now I keep both versions on hand. Thank you Joslyn! Rating: 5 stars 04/22/2012 Love this - easy to mix a big batch to keep ready. Rating: 5 stars 03/08/2007 WOW!!!!! This stuff really ROCKS!!!!! I made up a batch for the "Oven Baked Jambalaya" (on this site) and never realized how much I would use this seasoning. Don't know how I even got along without it. I use it on everything... chicken, chops, stew, popcorn and even stirred it into mayonnaise for a "Cajun Mayo" for sandwiches. My friends and neighbors are getting a jar of this for Christmas next year... I know they'll love it. Try it you'll love it too! Rating: 4 stars 05/09/2005 I keep this premade and on hand at all times. It's a fast way to spice of chicken or peppers and onions. Good Stuff! Rating: 5 stars 11/30/2011 This seasoning blend was perfect for us. Rating: 5 stars 03/07/2008 Being a Cajun from South Louisiana, this is very close to Tony Chachere's Seasoning blend. You can add more or decrease to your taste. I personally add more cayenne for my family. After mixing all the blends, pulverzie in food processor or blender to make fine powder mixture. Thanks again for a great blend of flavors! Rating: 5 stars 12/29/2011 excellent! I had to share it... mixed up a lot of it and gave it as a Xmas gift to my Mom & Gramma :) Rating: 5 stars 03/12/2006 This is a great spice blend! Not only have I used it for the outstanding Oven Baked Jambalaya recipe but have used it on chicken and tilapia. I cut the recipe in half so when I use some it is fresh. Rating: 5 stars 03/05/2010 Easy shortcut. I made this blend with plans to use it in Shrimp Creole as suggested by another reviewer. I left out the cayenne pepper because I want to be able to add different amounts to different recipes. This way I can adjust the "heat" according to who's coming to dinner. Thank you JOSLYN for sharing your recipe. Rating: 5 stars 09/15/2011 the perfect blend Rating: 5 stars 03/23/2014 This is an amazing recipe. I wouldn't change a thing. Rating: 5 stars 11/29/2005 I have used this many times now, from pasta to chicken and everything in between. I love it to make Cajun sausage. My only change is I completely cut the salt out. Rating: 5 stars 05/19/2011 Thank you!!!! Love It!!! Rating: 3 stars 08/01/2005 This on its own is just so so. I prefer to omit the salt and blend it 50/50 wiih a commercial blend. I find I get a better mix of flavors and lower sodium content allowing me to use it more liberally in my cooking. Very good for the Blackened Shrimp Stroganoff on this site. Rating: 5 stars 03/18/2012 Made Shrimp PoBoys (from this site) and needed creole seasoning. Didn't have horseradish, but had just purchased a bottle of horseradish powder from Penzy's spices and it worked wonderfully. Rating: 5 stars 12/14/2011 Could not find my cajun spice and was in the middle of a recipe which called for it. This was very good and it smells better than my store bought brand of cajun spice. Maybe a side by side comparison would be beneficial if I ever have the time to do it. Rating: 5 stars 02/27/2007 I love this! I even tried it for a dip and it was awesome. I made quasedillas (sp.?) and lathered this in them and it too was great! Simple and great. Yes, it works for popcorn too, thanks! Rating: 5 stars 03/09/2006 This stuff is way better than store bought cajun seasoning! I used 4T. of it for the slowcooker jambalaya recipe on this site, omitting the other spices and using just this. Rating: 5 stars 09/13/2006 This is a great blend of spices. It has a nice amount of heat to it, and it's not too salty. We love it on everything--especially fried eggs. Rating: 5 stars 01/14/2012 Thank you so much for this. This seasoning is so hard to find where I now live. I can finally start making the meals that I love again. Rating: 4 stars 10/17/2003 I needed a cajun seasoning blend at the last minute and made up a batch of this. I didn't have the white pepper so I left it out and halved the recipe since I didn't need too much. I mixed some of this with ranch dressing and used it as a dip with french fries (sounds weird, but sooo good). Thanks for sharing Joslyn. Rating: 5 stars 07/23/2011 Perfect Rating: 5 stars 02/01/2012 simple mix, tasted great Rating: 5 stars 11/25/2010 awesome, mixed this in italian dressing and injected it in my turkey!!!! Rating: 5 stars 03/12/2010 We liked this. I made it to use in Blackened Shrimp Stroganoff, also from this site. I made half the recipe, exactly as written which is plenty, since there are just two of us. I'll be happy to have this on hand to use when a recipe calls for a cajun or creole seasoning. Rating: 4 stars 07/17/2011 We used this on tilapia to make blackened fish. It was overall quite good, but too salty for my tastes. First, I made the recipe as written, but I reduced the cayenne to 1/4 teaspoon (to make it kid friendly). My kids really liked it (even though they said it was spicy, they still ate it up!!). Then, I made my husband's and my fish, by adding back about 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne to the remaining mixture. I thought the spiciness level was good, maybe even a little much (just personal preference). Overall it was good, but I gave it 4 stars because I felt it was way too salty as written. I will make it again, though, but with much less salt. You can always add salt once it's cooked, but you can't take it away! Rating: 5 stars 01/28/2012 Gives a special flavor to everything it touches. Love to always have it on hand!! Rating: 5 stars 02/05/2008 I work in the foodservice industry and wanted to make a jambalaya for Fat Tuesday. I'll review that recipe, too, but I also used this blend on both chicken thighs and tofu cubes. A word of warning, though: I reduced the cayenne by half and I still felt it was too spicy. (Most of the customers loved it! I must be a wimp.) In any case, just know that this is a very spicy blend. Rating: 5 stars 05/05/2010 Wonderful blend of spices. Didn't change a thing. Rating: 5 stars 12/06/2003 So simple and much, much cheaper. Made this for Christmas presents. What is the difference between Cajun and Creole seasoning?The main difference between Creole and Cajun seasoning blends comes down to the ingredients: Cajun seasoning features an array of ground peppers—black, cayenne, and white—while Creole seasoning is more herbal, with recipes often containing oregano, thyme, rosemary, and paprika.
