User questions & answers

Question:	What is the difference between this and the Jumbalaya rice mix
Answer:	We recently changed our product description to a "Jambalaya Seasoned Rice Blend" from "Jambalaya Rice Mix" because that is a big selling point for our brand. Our rice is BLENDED with the seasonings and vegetables as opposed to a box of rice with a clump of seasoning like others offer. Hence, you get consistent flavor in every bite. I hope this answers your question. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks!
Question:	micro waveable meals
Answer:	No it’s not. You need to cook it stove top. The most time consuming is cooking the chicken and sausage. That takes about 15-20 minutes. I Cooke them the night before I’m going to cook the jambalaya. Next day I just through the package in a pot add the chicken, sausage and water and follow the directions on the package and in 30-15 minutes I have an authentic jambalaya ligature tastes great.
Question:	Is this gluten free
Answer:	Correct, this item is not gluten free. However, we offer 2 other rice blends that are gluten free: Seasoned Brown Rice Blend https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YMXX6H5 and Seasoned Yellow Rice Blend https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YMJHNHB. Thanks!

Sample Recipe: Oven-Roasted Vegetables with Rosemary

1. Preheat the oven to 400 F, with oven racks placed in the two bottom positions. Lightly coat two baking sheets with the cooking spray.

2. In a large bowl, stir together the potatoes, carrots, zucchini, bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with the ¼ teaspoon of the black pepper, and 1½ tablespoons of the chopped rosemary. Stir to combine.

3. Place beets in a medium bowl. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over the beets and season with the remaining ¼ teaspoon black pepper and ½ tablespoon chopped rosemary. Stir to combine.

4. Divide the vegetables evenly between the two prepared baking sheets. Roast for 20 minutes, then gently stir the vegetables and rotate the baking sheets from rack to rack and front to back. Roast until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork and golden brown in some spots, 20 to 25 minutes more.

5. Serve garnished with the rosemary sprigs (if using).

Product description

Creole jambalaya was born in New Orleans in the 18th century when Spanish settlers tried to re-create their beloved paella using Louisiana ingredients. Today it’s a local staple, common from music festivals to Mardi Gras parties to quiet weeknight meals. And there’s a reason why you’ll find boxes of Zatarain’s Jambalaya Mix in so many New Orleans pantries: It delivers classic jambalaya flavor and is incredibly easy to prepare. Just add sausage, chicken, ham, seafood, veggies – whatever you’d like to make it a meal.

About the Brand

A label from the earlier days of Zatarain's

The tradition for making Zatarain's amazing New Orleans-style products was started well before the turn of the century by a man named Emile A. Zatarain, Sr. In 1889, he obtained the company's first product trademark and started to market root beer. Shortly after, he began to produce mustards, pickled vegetables, and extracts. As the business grew, so did the demand for a broader range of products. Through their expertise in blending spices, the company established a reputation for making only the most authentic New Orleans-Style food. In 1963, the Zatarain family sold the business, which was then moved to Gretna, Louisiana, a suburb of New Orleans.

Today, Zatarain's is the nation's leading maker of New Orleans-style food products. Zatarain's prides itself on great taste, high quality, and a near fanatical dedication to New Orleans cuisine. Interestingly, Zatarain's is as much a tradition at backyard barbecues as it is at formal dinners. From its humble beginnings, the company has grown to make more than 200 food products from rice dinner mixes, pasta dinner mixes, breadings, seasonings, and spices to seafood boils, stuffing mixes, and other products based on authentic New Orleans-style foods and seafood preparation.

• Delicious traditional Creole dish
• PREP TIP: Add one pound of shrimp for an easy meal
• Long grain rice, onions, bell peppers, garlic with paprika & red peppers
