Emeril's Creole Seasoning




Source of Recipe


Excerpted from Prime Time Emeril






Recipe Introduction


"The secret to Lousiana cooking is seasoning, and every cook or chef prefers to create his or her own. Some like theirs with more heat; others prefer more herbs. Here's a recipe for making your own, which is based on my Emeril's Original Essence. If you make your own, be sure to use new herbs and spices. There's nothing worse than ingredients that have been sitting on your spice rack for years; they have no flavor. No matter which one you use -- your version or mine -- this is the secret ingredient that kicks everything up. Double or triple the recipe as you wish, because you'll find plenty of ways to use it."

~ Emeril Lagasse
