$5.53
Elevate your gumbo with Cajun's Choice Gumbo File', a premium seasoning crafted from ground sassafras leaves. This traditional ingredient is essential in authentic Louisiana cooking, offering a unique earthy and slightly peppery flavor profile that enhances the depth of your dishes.
Historically, the Choctaw Indians of the Louisiana bayous were among the first to utilize filé seasoning made from dried, ground leaves of the sassafras tree. Later, African influences introduced gumbo (meaning okra) to the region, leading to the rich, roux-based stew over rice. When okra wasn't available, filé powder became a preferred alternative for thickening and flavoring the dish. Today, Cajun's Choice Gumbo File' continues this legacy, bringing authentic Louisiana character to your cooking. cajungrocer.com
Beyond gumbo, this versatile seasoning can be used to enhance the flavor of soups, stews, and sauces, providing a distinctive taste that is both aromatic and savory. It is free from MSG and gluten, making it suitable for various dietary preferences.
Packaged in a convenient 1.4 oz (39.7 g) container, Cajun's Choice Gumbo File' is a must-have for those seeking to bring the authentic flavors of Cajun and Creole cuisine into their kitchens.
