SHRIMP AND CRAWFISH ETOUFEE
Steps:
- For the Etouffee: Heat a medium cast-iron skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Saute the trinity (peppers, onions and celery). Add the garlic, and saute until slightly tender. Add the Roux and deglaze with some rum to help break it down (it will flame up). Add 1 to 2 cups purified water to form a sauce. Add in the shrimp, crawfish, pepper, salt and thyme. Reduce the flame to a medium-low simmer. Add Mama's Green Creole Sauce. Stir constantly making sure the roux doesn't burn and is completely dissolved. Taste periodically to confirm desired taste. Simmer 10 to 20 minutes, until the etoufee reaches desired thickness.
- For Mama's Creole Herb Rice: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cook the brown rice in 1 cup water, covered, for 30 to 40 minutes.
- Cook the white rice in 1 cup water in a rice steamer.
- After both are cooked, empty the pans onto a cookie sheet. Mix the rice and toss with the oil, thyme and salt to taste.
- Drench the etoufee over the rice, and serve.
- Place 2 cups water, the lemon juice, oil, salt, garlic, jalapenos, green onions, yellow onions, bell peppers and parsley in a blender and process until a sauce is formed. If the blender is not large enough, you can make it in two batches.
- Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over low heat. Add the flour and stir until mixture is creamy and there are no lumps. Turn the heat down low and keep stirring until the mixture reaches the desired color (a medium or dark brown). Be careful and pay attention as not to burn the roux-- after it reaches a certain shade of brown it will begin to brown faster.
GET YOUR GRITS ON WITH BLACKENED SHRIMP
Steps:
- Toss shrimp in Cajun spice in a large bowl to coat.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Heat butter and olive oil in a pan, then add shrimp. Cook until shrimp curls and turns pink, 1 to 2 minutes on each side (see Cook's Note).
- Ladle 1/4 cup Roasted Corn Emulsion on bottom of a plate. Place 3 hot Fried Green Tomato Slices side by side, on top. Add small scoops of Stone Ground Bacon Grits on each Fried Green Tomato slice. Place a shrimp on each of the stacks.
- Sprinkle diced tomato and chives on top. Then, dust with more Cajun spice and serve.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Rub corn cobs with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Place on a sheet tray and roast until cooked and lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Once cooled, cut corn off of the cobs and set aside, saving the cobs.
- Combine shrimp base, 4 cups water and cobs in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until liquid is reduced by half, then remove cobs and discard. Add heavy cream to the pot and bring to a simmer.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a separate small pan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook, whisking, until it becomes the consistency of wet sand, 3 to 4 minutes, to create a roux. Remove from heat. Once the cream is simmering, whisk in the roux mixture. Reduce heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened.
- Add corn, chives and salt and pepper to taste. Stir until combined, then serve hot.
- Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar and Cajun spice in a large bowl to create a breading mixture.
- Combine buttermilk and honey in another large bowl and whisk until combined.
- Slice green tomatoes about 1/4-inch thick, roughly 4 to 5 slices per tomato. Place tomato slices in the honey-buttermilk mixture and gently toss to coat.
- Place each green tomato slice in the breading mixture, and coat both sides well. Set breaded tomatoes aside and save any remaining breading.
- Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, to prepare for frying.
- Re-bread green tomato slices in the remaining breading mixture, then place in the skillet and fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
- Remove fried green tomato slices from oil and place on a paper towel to absorb any remaining grease. Sprinkle with salt to taste, then serve hot.
- Cook the bacon in a large pot over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until browned.
- Add heavy cream, whole milk and 1 1/4 cups water to the pot and bring to a simmer. Stir in the grits with a wire whisk, making sure there are no lumps.
- Bring back to a simmer, then lower heat. Season with salt and pepper, and let simmer, stirring occasionally to ensure that no lumps form and the bottom does not burn, until grits are fully cooked, 20 to 25 minutes (see Cook's Note). Remove pot from heat.
- Whisk in mascarpone until well combined, and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve hot or refrigerate up to 4 days.
CRAWFISH AND GRITS WITH POACHED EGGS
Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the celery, onions and bell peppers and saute until the vegetables are softened, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and stir until combined.
- Add the crawfish and saute for 5 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour and stir into the crawfish to make a thick mixture. Pour in the chicken stock and stir to deglaze the pan. Add the bay leaves. Season with Cajun Select Seasoning and hot sauce to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sauce has thickened, the flavors have developed and the crawfish are tender to the bite (though still firm), about 10 minutes.
- Serve the crawfish over grits with a poached egg. Garnish with green onions.
- Blend together the granulated garlic, paprika, salt, cayenne, onion powder, black pepper, sugar, basil, celery seed and oregano in a bowl until combined. Store in an airtight jar for up to 6 months.
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add the chicken stock, grits, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a 3-quart baking dish and stir to combine. Bake, stirring after 30 minutes, until the grits have thickened and absorbed the stock, about 1 hour.
- Remove the grits from the oven and whisk in the heavy cream, butter and goat cheese to finish and loosen the grits. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
- Fill a large high-sided skillet halfway with water. Heat over medium heat to a very light simmer and stir in the vinegar and salt.
- Crack an egg into a ramekin. Use a spoon to stir the water to create a whirlpool then drop the egg right into the center of the skillet. Cook until the whites have set and the yolks are still runny, 4 to 5 minutes, then remove using a slotted spoon, letting the water drain off. Repeat with remaining eggs.
SHRIMP AND GRITS WITH BLACKENED SPICED BUTTER
Steps:
- In a pot, bring the chicken base, butter and 2 quarts water to a boil. Whisk in the the grits, then turn the heat to low, cover the pot and cook for 8 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, whisk in the cheese and let sit on the stove for another 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the Blackened Butter in a large saucepan on medium-high heat. Add the shrimp to the pan and saute until it's no longer pink. Add the bacon, give it a final toss and distribute the shrimp and bacon on top of the plated grits. Finish the dish by pouring the remaining butter left in the pan over the plated shrimp and grits.
- Blend the melted butter with the blackening spice and garlic. Mix this with the softened butter and whisk thoroughly until smooth. Spread into a 13-by-9-inch pan and freeze for 2 hours. Cut into 8-by-12-inch cubes.
