The flavors are focused, and the food is highly seasoned, though not necessarily spicy. Since the early nineteenth century, Cajuns in Louisiana have been described by non-Cajun observers as sociable, fun-loving people, fond of play, and dancing. Cajuns today describe themselves as sociable, hospitable, and full of joie de vivre. Cajuns claim to have a unique ability to “enjoy life” and to “have a good time.” Symbolic forms used to express Cajun identity are often those associated with “having a good time”: music, dancing, foodways, and festivals. Cajuns sometimes describe Cajun food by referring to certain ingredients, such as crawfish, seafood, game, okra, rice, red pepper, and dark roast coffee. These ingredients are considered Cajun because they are produced locally (or distributed locally, in the case of dark roast coffee) and because Cajuns consume them frequently and in great quantities. However, when asked about the significance of specific ingredients, people often conclude that cooking style is more important than the use of a particular ingredient.All of these and so much more are within the pages of this book.
