Gris-Gris
New Orleans Style Creole Seasoning
Named for the West African protection amulet, Gris-Gris is built around alligator pepper — grains of paradise — the aromatic seed brought to New Orleans through the Afro-Caribbean tradition. Roasted garlic is the signature. Use it wherever you want deep, warm, mysterious heat that opens slow. Bloom in hot oil or butter first to unlock the aromatic oils. Great on chicken, shrimp, rice, roasted vegetables.
Best for: gumbo, étouffée, rice, chicken, shrimp, eggs, roasted vegetables
A little goes a long way, start with a pinch.
