  • Menuspotlight Seafood
    menuspotlight Seafood WITHMaking a Southern SOUsplash with L Cajun and Creole seafood and shellfish by Dawn Reiss For people who love Cajun and Creole food, the holy trinity is a culinary journey paved with onions, bell peppers and celery. But just as impor- tant—and possibly as much of a spiritual experi- ence—are the iconic seafood dishes, from down- home to elegant, that make the most of Gulf seafood and illustrate the many cultural footprints on these cuisines. Cajun food is about simple one-pot dishes. The “table in wilderness-style” began as a cre- ative adaptation by Acadians, hunters and trappers who used local vegetables and herbs to create dishes like red beans and rice, jambal- aya, crawfish boils and smoked meats. Compared to their aristocratic Creole counterparts, this was living off the land. “Think of Cajun as the country cousin of Creole,” jokes Chef John Besh of New Orleans’ Restaurant August. “Cajun dishes have a lot of history from their Acadian ancestry; they are old French recipes for simple food made very consistently. It’s like Cajun dishes have been left in a time capsule because they haven’t changed a lot. Creole foods developed flavors from the Spanish, French, Africans and Portuguese.
