Grace Parisi prefers the fresh flavors of green bell pepper, onion and garlic in Creole cooking to the gritty, harsh onion and garlic powders often found in Cajun flavorings. She's tried this aromatic Creole spice paste on lots of food but her favorite way to use it is on butterflied jumbo [cFavorite].
