INSTRUCTIONS
available from January through June by mail order from Louisiana Premium Seafood, P.O. Box 68, Palmetto, LA In a heavy skillet cook onion and bell pepper in butter, covered, over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned. Sprinkle flour over onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and reserved puree, water, and cayenne and simmer, stirring, until thickened slightly, about 1 minute. Stir in crawfish and heat mixture over moderate heat until just hot. Etouffee may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead, cooled completely, uncovered, and chilled, covered. Reheat etouffee before proceeding. Stir in scallions and salt to taste. In a large bowl whisk together vinegar and salt and pepper to taste and whisk in oil in a stream until emulsified. Add mesclun and toss well. Spoon etouffee into warm pastry shells and arrange mesclun around shells. Yield: 8 servings as a first course.
