I’ve added a half-cup of strongly-brewed lapsang souchong to a few of my Cajun recipes with good results. It can add some nice smokey depth to a gumbo or jambalaya. In case of the gumbo I add it during the last simmering, and in jambalaya I use it to replace some of the water when cooking the rice.
Ooh, nice recipes. Thanks. I’m going to try the shortbread.
I wanted to add that using lapsang souchong in the liquid is a good way to add a smokey flavor to your foods like beans and collard greens without using meat.
