Louisiana Pickers Shrimp With Piquant Sauce
This recipe was found in a wonderful book called the bluegrass music cookbook and was contributed by marie cox of the cox family, a bluegrass music group from cotton valley, louisiana. i've tweaked it only in very small ways from the original and lowered the oil substantially. The original recipe called for 1/2 cup cooking oil. if you're not worried about the fat content you could go with the original amount.
