Thanks for reminding me about this dish. I hadn't made it in a long time, but it's so rich, I'll probably not make it for a while.

It sure was delicious.

Great dish; I haven't made it in a while either. Might be time...

The runt had it for lunch. One of the best shrimp dishes ever created.

I made a batch of crawfish etouffee last week that I would declare as my best ever done in my life. It did not survive lunch the next day, although I desired to bring a bit to a youngster from Viet Nam. There is another batch scheduled for Tuesday.

I believe this to be true. And anyone from out of town I've prepared it for sits there with a smile and disbelief.

I used all fresh herbs and, of course, a very healthy dose of green onions. It was enjoyed by all. Also, a pound of shrimp feeds more than two people especially if you serve it over a starch. I used some angel hair pasta, but I really prefer it with just French bread and a salad.

Marie, I may have the cabbage to start the little trek in a few days. A bit of inheritance that is very unexpected.

I'm a thin spaghetti guy myself. With a side salad and bread, one recipe will feed 2.5 to 3 people. Very economical.

Recipe and discussion are in the thread below.

Note the order of cooking the shrimp and mushrooms is reversed or you will have overcooked shrimp. Nothing about this has to be exact.

That can be done with great pleasure. Two thousand is my limit on head count.

I know, but I'm looking to die young having enjoyed great food on the way to heaven. Great food is heaven on earth, anyway, but thanks for the killjoy post.

I've made something similar but I can't get my head around mushrooms and shrimp together. I like pecans and I like brownies. But I don't like pecans in my brownies. Gonna have to ask Lucy about this before I try it.
