| Pistolettes are a football shaped brown 'n serve bread rolls also known as French rolls. The inside of these rolls are carved out and replacing the cavity a delcious concoction of shrimp or crawfish wonderment. As my son says, there is nothing that taste better than 2 carbs together. This is it - !pistolette de ralentissements! for a small group.
This crawfish/shrimp pistolettes recipe is the ONE that was prepared for the Maltrait Memorial School October Fete Bazaar in Kaplan, LA. The recipe is from MS Margaret David (Tissa's Mom); reduced for smaller quantities. The original recipe was for 50 pounds of crawfish. ALso you dont have to fry them...baking works!!!
