www.answers.com/topic/piquant defines the word piquant when used as an adjective: Affecting the organs of taste or smell with a strong and often harsh sensation: pungent, sharp, spicy, zesty. This classic dish lives up to the meaning. |

| Ingredients |
| 3/4 cup oil |
3/4 cup flour |
| 1 bunch green onions scallions |
1 large onion |
| 1 medium bell pepper |
1 can 15 oz tomato sauce |
| 1 tbsp sugar |
2 pounds cleaned shrimp |
| 1 tsp salt, |
2 tsp garlic powder |
| 1 tsp black pepper |
1/2 tsp red pepper |
| water |
| |
| | | Directions | | In a Dutch oven, make a dark brown roux with the flour and oil. Add chopped vegetables and cook until tender. Add tomato sauce, seasonings (more or less) and cook until tender. Add enough water to make it stewy. Do not forget that the shrimp will release water. Simmer approximately one and one half hours stirring to prevent sticking. Add shrimp and cook about 20 more minutes. Serve hot over rice. |
