Your Crawfish Etouffee is wonderful I love Cajun food.
Bring on the heat!
Thank you for posting.


This is a beauty! Since I'm in Virginia, I can actually get craw-fish pretty easily here. Interesting to me that it specifies "unsalted" butter.. Perhaps they think the craw-fish themselves remain salty enough. Do you know?


Maybe unsalted butter to balance the salt in the stock and/or creole seasoning mix? Great dish. Nothing beats steamy, hot crawfish etouffee over fluffy rice.


I added this to my group "Most Requested Recipes".
I often make this during the winter and I had it this New years Day.


Yeah Baby!! One of my all time favorite Cajun dishes. This sounds awesome... And quite authentic. I am on my way, spoon in hand... ;-)~
Saving this to try real soon... Thanks for the recipe Nicky!


Outstanding recipe, Nicky hon. I have a real soft spot in my heart and hunger in my tummy for Etoufee..one of my all-time Cajun faves. You can invite me over for this anytime. Just saying...*hugs* and yumm! ~Vickie


All I want to say is:Laissez le bon temps rouler!
Yummy!
