Cajun cuisine and Creole cuisine are both culinary traditions of the Louisiana region. They draw from a mixture of French and African cuisine; many of the dishes are spicier than in other parts of the U.S.

A "Cajun seasoning" is extensively used; it is a mixture of cayenne pepper, black pepper and celery seed.
