I was raised cajun
My Dad was a rajun cajun who cooked and loved to hunt and fish
A good man. A Marine.
Not a bad BBQ guy and decent gumbo chef myself
I'm 59 now but it took until I was almost 40 before I learned how to build a roux from scratch
Ettouffe requires a roux.
No short cuts
The holy trinity oil and flour; with a beverage in hand.
That is the proper way.
God Bless the USA

And my ettouffe also uses a can of mushroom soup.
By the way, I have eaten many many crawfish ettouffee recipes over the years and have yet to have one that was not good, though many were better than others. Have had several "quick and easy" etouffee recipes with canned mushroom soup that were excellent. Don't be afraid to try it.

I use cream of shrimp but I cook it for a living in my restaurant and have been to camps from Pierre Part, la up to Haynesville, La and i've never seen anyone not put their favorite style of cream soup into crawfish ettouffee. It's not a substitute for anything. You still need your base of butter and flour to make a blonde roux but it gives it good flavor and helps thicken it some.
