Creating authentic New Orleans flavors is easy with Zatarain's Gumbo Filé. This seasoning comes from the sassafras tree's leaves and has a place in traditional Cajun and Creole cuisine because it adds a distinct taste to classic recipes. Beyond its flavor, gumbo filé seasoning can also act as a thickening agent. If you're looking for an excellent addition to your gumbo base, filé powder can help you bring boldness and texture to your menu.
To create this product's signature flavor, sassafras leaves are carefully chosen to ensure their quality. Then, the leaves are dried and ground to make a seasoning that delivers a unique, earthy taste.
With its subtle, savory taste and ability to thicken all kinds of liquid bases, Zatarain's Gumbo Filé is a kitchen staple. This seasoning was explicitly crafted with culinary professionals in mind, and each container holds 12 ounces of powder, making it possible to enliven menu items or inspire new dishes for weeks. You'll want to keep this back-of-house ingredient well-stocked.
Filé powder is a staple ingredient in several New Orleans classics like gumbo, Cajun clam chowder, Cioppino seafood stew and Louisiana-style bouillabaisse. It also pairs perfectly with Cajun favorites like okra and roux whenever you want to add a little more thickness to a dish.
Whatever liquid-based sauce or soup you're preparing, this seasoning will add a unique flavor that complements the rest of your ingredients. While it has also been traditionally served over corn grits, chefs today find that this product offers endless possibilities in the kitchen.
Zatarain's gumbo filé seasoning is kosher and contains only premium ingredients to ensure you serve nothing but the best to your customers. Even customers with dietary needs can enjoy the robust flavors of Louisiana-style cooking thanks to this versatile blend.
