ETOUFFEE is a Recipe Poem - read into it and around it and you'll get it right! It's a Cajun Waltz of a kind....

ETOUFFEE

dad's favorite cajun food, he said
was Etouffee the sauce of kings
who worked the bayous in piroques
and drank up jars of anything

No crawfish pie beats Etouffee
the Roux all golden sherry sweet
all bubblin' round them river shrimp
or crawfish tails - jus' can't be beat

all lemon - orange over the rice
be thick or thin - don't matter, cher!
jus' pour it full and hot and rich...
that be good Etouffee right there!
