The New Orleans Seasoning gets its heat from cayenne and its flavorful character from onion, garlic, paprika and cumin. The addition of herbs (oregano and thyme) give Victoria's New Orleans Seasoning a well rounded flavor which balances the heat in this Cajun style blend. This is the perfect blend for New Orleans style dishes like our Cajun Cornbread Casserole and Simmering Cajun Shrimp.
