Blackened Seasoning Blend is used when using the Blackening cooking technique to prepare fish and other foods. Often associated with Cajun cuisine and a technique that was popularized by chef Paul Prudhomme. The food is dipped in melted butter and then dredged in a mixture of herbs and spices, usually some combination of thyme, oregano, chili pepper, peppercorns, salt, garlic powder and onion powder. It is then cooked in a very hot cast-iron skillet.
