Story
Our Cajun Dirty Rice is a custom blend of white rice with traditional southern ingredients to make a flavorful and slightly spicy side dish.
We mixed our parboiled white rice with the essential "Holy Trinity" of Cajun and Creole cuisine - celery, bell peppers and onions. We added spices and aromatics of sea salt, parsley, cayenne and our own special Cajun Blackened Seasoning to achieve pleasingly piquant flavor.
Authentic Cajun Dirty Rice is a labor-intensive dish which starts with sautéed chicken livers and gizzards that are ground or minced into rice, giving it a "dirty" appearance.
Our version is a mild, cayenne-pepper-accented rice blend that appeals to many palates with no meat products. We designed this blend with versatility and full flavors to be enjoyed as is or to be used as a base for traditional Cajun and Creole dishes.
