Our Cajun Salad Dressing is cool and creamy with a spicy Cajun heat and is just brimming with tangy flavour. Perfect for salads, as a sauce for grilled meats or a dip for your crudités!
The star in this delectable dressing is the Cajun spice mix typified by its peppery spiciness, and agreeable oregano, thyme notes combined with paprika, onion flakes, garlic powder and cayenne pepper for some extra heat. It really makes a huge difference if you take the time to make your own as most store-bought varieties have added salt.
