Shrimp in Mustard Sauce for Fat Sunday #SundaySupper

March 1, 2014 by Tara Noland 83 Comments

Spread the love

We have Mardi Gras inspired recipes for you on #SundaySupper today!! What a fun theme this one is. There is one recipe that I have made again and again for so many occasions and it is from Cajun-Creole Cooking Cookbook that my girlfriends Karen and Maureen brought back for me from New Orleans many years ago.

This recipe is fantastic and is made the night before so it is perfect to bring along for so many outings!! It is great anytime of the year and it a sure fire crowd pleaser for Mardi Gras.

Shrimp in Mustard Sauce by Noshing With The Nolands (3) (Small)

The sauce is so flavorful with the addition of a tarragon vinegar, red wine vinegar and lots of dried mustard plus just the right heat from the hot red pepper flakes!!

It is really hard for me to find crab boil up here in Canada, something that is readily available in the U.S. and something that I stockpile when I am there. So sometimes I make it without if I am unable to find it.
