Cajun vs Creole Cooking?
What are the similarities and differences? Is this type of cooking only found in Louisiana or any other states?
Cajun cook tends to be more French influenced since the Cajuns are descendants of the French Acadians.
Creole cooking is more influenced by African-Caribbean (which include French and Spanish) cooking styles.
But to be honest, there is not really a big difference between the two since they’re all part of the cuisine in Louisiana.
I would say that cajun food can be spicier than creole food, but other than that the two are very similar.
Maybe it’s the cook that’s making the dish?
