In regards to cooking, it is very important to take into account that everyone else started somewhere. I do not know of a single person who was born with a wooden cooking spoon and all set. There’s a whole lot of learning which needs to be done in order to become a prolific cook and there is always room for advancement. Not only do you will need to begin with the basics in terms of cooking but you almost must start if understanding how to cook a new cuisine such as Chinese, Indian, Thai, or Indian food.
Which usually means that at any particular time in your cooking learning cycles there is quite probably some one somewhere that’s worse or better in cooking more compared to you. Take heart from this as the very best have bad days when it comes to cooking. There are a number of people who cook for different factors. Some cook as a way to eat and live although some cook simply because they actually enjoy the whole process of cooking. Some cook during times of emotional upheaval yet many others cook out of utter boredom. No matter your reason behind cooking or learning to cook you should begin with the basics.
The first thing you have to understand is what the different terminology you’ll discover in recipes actually means. There are many fresh and at times foreign sounding terms you will see in common recipes. These terms can mean the difference in recipe success or failure. You should be able to locate a good section in any inclusive cook book that explains the different definitions for unfamiliar speech. If you’re not entirely certain what is meant with"folding into the eggs” it is in your best interests to check this up.
Additionally you will find as your experience and confidence develops you will see yourself more and more often improvising when you move and adjusting meals to meet your personal preferences. If you prefer less or more of ingredients or wish to produce a recipe somewhat more or less spicy in flavor you can make simple alterations along the way in order to achieve this goal. Put simply you will begin punctually to create snacks of one’s personal. And that’s something you won’t fundamentally learn when it comes to basic cooking skills to novices but you’d never learn if you didn’t master those basic cooking skills.
Shrimp, Crawfish, And Corn Stew is one of the most favored of recent trending foods on earth. It’s appreciated by millions every day. It is simple, it is quick, it tastes delicious. Shrimp, Crawfish, And Corn Stew is something which I have loved my entire life. They’re fine and they look fantastic.
To get started with this recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have shrimp, crawfish, and corn stew using 11 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Shrimp, Crawfish, And Corn Stew:
- Get 4 packages 4 bags of already peeled frozen shrimp, if its shrimp season get ya 3lbs of boiled shrimp bcuz those shrimp will b significantly larger
- Prepare 2 2 packs of frozen, already cooked & peeled crawfish or 2 lbs of boiled crawfish (again, only if it's crawfish season…btw "shrimp/crawfish season" only applies 2 my fellow Cajun folk)
- Take 10 each 8-10 stalks fresh corn, shucked
- Prepare 1 large family size can cream of mushroom soup
- Get 1 regular size can cream of shrimp soup (if no cream of shrimp available, cream of chicken is fine)
- Get 1 cup half n half or heavy whipping cream
- Make ready 1 cup Milk
- Take 1 Blend of 1 chopped onion, 3 stalks chopped celery, 1 chopped green bell pepper and 1 chopped red bell pepper. They sell this blend already prepared/ pre-chopped in some grocery stores.
- Get 2 tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
- Prepare 1 Crab boil liquid seasoning (equivalent of Old Bay seasoning in northern states) to taste
- Take 1 Salt/pepper or local spice blend to taste (Tony Chachere's is my blend of choice)
Steps to make Shrimp, Crawfish, And Corn Stew:
- In blender, blend half of shucked corn w cup of half n half/heavy whipping cream. Add some seasoning 2 taste and blend until smooth. Consistency will b thick. Reserve remaining unblended corn to add in later.
- Add olive oil to hot deep stock pot and toss in chopped onion blend. Stir around until mix begins turning translucent. This process is termed "sweating" by local chefs. Releases amazing flavors and juices from veggies. As ur sweating ur blend add some seasoning to it as u go…
- Next add peeled and thawed shrimp. Stir those around a few mins until they start 2 turn pink.
- Add corn/half n half blend to pot along w both cans of soup. This mixture will b thick. Incorporate all content.
- Add milk here to thin out mixture. I said use about a cup of milk but add gradually until u get 2 desired consistency. U may want more than 1 cup if u prefer it thinner or less than a cup if u want it more hearty.
- Add cooked/peeled/thawed crawfish and remaining whole corn kernels to pot, stir in.
- Now comes the fun!!! Season that thang up 2 ur liking w about a tablespoon of liquid crab boil or old bay… be VERY VERY careful on this step cuz that crap is super hot so take it slow…add it gradually until u get desired heat. Then add more salt/pepper or spice blend to taste.
- Stir everything together well one good time then cover w lid and let it simmer on low heat for about 15-20 mins.
- Serve over steamed rice to eat it as a stew or by itself w/ some toasted & buttered french bread, croissant, or side salad bcuz it's yummy & filling enough 2 eat as a soup!!!
