Sold in 1 or 4 ounce bag
Starting at: $3.29

File (pronounced "fee-lay") powder is actually ground sassafras leaves, which are sometimes also mixed with a little bit of ground thyme for extra depth of flavor. Widely used in Cajun and Creole cooking, the secret to its use is add it to a dish near the very end of cooking, or sprinkle on as a finishing garnish.
