In the south many dishes have that spice. I love watching the cooking channel on the tv we got from www.tvbydirect.com because it gives me a lot of ideas in the kitchen. In the south, Cajun dishes are a specialty and there are quite many to choose from. Many Cajun dishes are rather spicy. What gives them their unique flavor is cayenne pepper or hot sauce.

It is also aq hearty filling meal the whole family will enjoy.
