| Good Ole fashion Shrimp Ettouffe; a No-Soup ettouffe - the kind Grandma use to make. Nanan.....I have arrived!!!! |
| Miss Ollie had been in our household for a long time. She was one of the best cooks around. Our family loved when she prepared this etouffee. |
| As a little girl, I used to sit in my Granny's kitchen in Lafayette and watch her chop the veggies for this fabulous gumbo. It's very filling, and for me, it's the ultimate comfort food. It's made with a lighter roux, and the spice can be adjusted with a little Tony Chachere's |

| From aquaculture.com - There are three species of gulf shrimp that have worldwide commercial importance, pink, gulf white, and brown. Brown shrimp constitute nearly half of the United States shrimp harvests. Gulf shrimp, unlike other varieties of shrimp, do not survive well in captivity and thus are not cultured. The only sources of gulf shrimp are wild. MawMaw does find the brown shrimp in Holly Beach, Louisiana but prefers the taste of the Gulf white.

| Fun Fact - The largest cabbage weighed 144 pounds. Cabbage is often prepared by boiling, usually as part of soups or stews similar to borscht (beet soup). Boiling tenderizes the leaves, and releases sugars, and develops the characteristic "cabbage" aroma. |
