Louisiana Pickers Shrimp With Piquant Sauce image

This recipe was found in a wonderful book called The Bluegrass Music Cookbook and was contributed by Marie Cox of the Cox Family, a Bluegrass music group from Cotton Valley, Louisiana. I've tweaked it only in very small ways from the original and lowered the oil substantially. The original recipe called for 1/2 cup cooking oil. If you're not worried about the fat content you could go with the original amount.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices to give it more flavor.
