Crawfish Etouffee

[Drake4x4]

Cooked for a Louisiana Saturday Night themed Wedding shower for a friend of my wife and I.

Decided to cook Crawfish Etouffee, Potato Salad, Duck wraps, and Homegrown/made Pepper Jelly and Cream Cheese spread. I only remember to take pictures of the Etouffee.


Cook a light "Peanut colored" Roux with butter and flour

Once the roux is the color I like I will add Onions, Bell Peppers, Jalapeno Peppers, Parsley, and tomatoes (all from my garden minus the parsley and onions).

The final product after adding seafood stock, vegetable stock, seasoning, and crawfish. I cooked two pots this size along with potato salad, and 60+ duck wraps for approximately 45-50 people.

Everyone enjoyed the Louisiana Saturday Night Themed Party, the food and Abita and Hurricane beverages were also great.

Looks very good!! What ratio of flour to butter do you use for that roux?
