Zatarain's® Jambalaya

Probably one of the most celebrated names in Cajun and Creole cuisines, Zatarain’s® has been a New Orleans tradition since 1889. With a focus on good ingredients and great flavor, Zatarain’s® jambalaya highlights the true spirit of Louisiana and provides a flavorful punch to spice up any weeknight meal or special occasion. This traditional dinner dish originated as an attempt to make Spanish paella in the New World. Jambalaya, as we know it, originated in southern Louisiana as an effort to maximize resources near the bayou, where food was scarce. Although every Louisiana chef prepares jambalaya differently, this favorite rice dish usually features the Cajun Holy Trinity, seafood, sausages, or other specialty meats. This signature jambalaya mix will take your taste buds for a tour of New Orleans. Explore our inventory today to find other great meals and recipe inspirations.
