Shrimp Etoufee

Yeah, yeah, I know most people like it with crayfish, but shrimp is what I can get here, and it's cheaper than beef.

So, Shrimp Etoufee is what's for dinner! Really good shrimp Etouffee!

Southern roux's are hard to make, Gumbo among the hardest, but I have always loved Etouffee. "Etoufee" means 'smothered' and it's over rice. It's just a rich sauce smothered over some good rice (but the rice is important)

More in a moment...after we eat!

Shirmps will do but you really need that muddy crawdaddy bouquet.
Making a good roux I'd easy

Yummmm! That’s one of my favorite dishes. I had a roommate that was from Louisiana he and used to make it a lot. His mom would send him certain ingredients that were not available where we lived. Good Stuff dem Crawdad’s!

I like to watch some of the old Justin Wilson Cajun cooking shows on Twitch once in a while, they run them 24 hours a day on its own channel.
Never tried to make any of the recipes but they all look good.
