Directions: |
Directions:Simmer the vegetables and seasonings for forty-five to sixty minutes, until soft, smother down, in the stock, adding water as you go to keep them from drying out. I add the Creole seasoning at the end, when the shrimp go in. Add the beans and continue to simmer. Boil the shrimp for five minutes. Add to the beans and simmer over low heat while you cook the rice. Serve over the cooked rice. Or put in bowl, put an ice cream scoop of rice on the beans.
For added flavor, dice 1/4 pound Tasso, boil with the vegetables.
Simple shrimp stock-- four cups water, add the shrimp shells, heads if you have them, an onion, the skin ,some celery, the tops, a few teaspoonfuls of peppercorns or whatever else you want to add. Simmer an hour or so. Strain. You can measure out what is needed and freeze the extra for use later. |
