    I'm not surprised that you feel that way about this recipe. In New Orleans, or anywhere in the USA for that matter, clam juice is used in the recipe. While living there, that's what I used, but here in Australia, I have never come across bottles of clam juice like sold in the USA. Just a lot of crazy looks for enquiring about it. So, I've substituted fish stock or in this case the Thermomix vegetable stock for the clam juice. I LOVE clam juice!

    1-2 level teaspoons Creole Spice to the chicken étouffée and 0.5-1 level teaspoon (optional) to the rice that goes with it.

    I am sorry but I didn’t find it tasted anything like etouffee either did my daughter. We have both been to New Orleans & this is my favourite dish in the world.
