REAL SHRIMP CREOLE
This is another Cajun dish that is my personal favorite. It has a tomato base along with roux that makes it a hearty meal. It is also served over hot rice as most good Cajun foods are. That is a staple in every Cajun home. My gramma would keep her rice in a big new garbage can with a tight lid. We ate so much of it that when it was on sale and there was a limit she would send all the grandkids in to each get a bag. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Steps:
- Make roux with the butter and flour, heat the butter and stir in the flour. When roux begins to turn slight tan and is well mixed with the butter turn heat down to low. Continue cooking and stir occasionally. This should take about 45 minutes to one hour, but you want the roux to be a rich chocolate brown without burning. If it burns you should throw it out and begin again.
- Throw everything into the pot except the shrimp.
- May have to add 1 cup of water to thin a bit if too thick.
- Simmer on low for one hour, add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and mix in well.
- Add the shrimp and cook until they are done about 20 minutes.
- Serve over hot cooked rice. You may wish to add a sprinkle of gumbo filet to each dish.
- I usually serve with some kind of hot bread and a salad on side. Good with a glass of red or white wine.

SHRIMP CREOLE
This is not a quick recipe, but taking the time to make a dark rich roux is so worth the wait. Also, you could make ahead of time and reheat over medium; stirring occasionally and making certain the mixture does not boil. I suggest serving over white rice or a saffron rice mix is a special treat if you can find it.

Tips:

- Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery.
- Use a Good Quality Creole Seasoning: Creole seasoning is a key ingredient in this dish. Be sure to use a good quality seasoning that has a good balance of spices.

- Serve Over Rice: Shrimp Creole is traditionally served over rice. You can use white rice, brown rice, or even cauliflower rice.
