Green soup (previously chicken soup) converted to Jumblelaya

Start heating up the remaining soup from yesterday.

Fill a medium small metal bowl half full with deveined frozen shrimp in the shell, add cold water, let sit about 20 minutes or so to thaw.

Add following chopped/sliced veggies to soup

• 2 celery stalks
• rhubarb
• green pepper

Make a medium brown roux. (use metal pan & spoon.)

• about 2 T butter
• about 4 T flour (I make a drier roux. Can do equal amounts butter/flour if you wish.)

Then add liquid from soup to roux make a smooth gravy with no lumps then add back to soup.

Take off shells from thawed shrimp and rinse shrimp.

Slowly bring soup to boil to let it thicken.

Add equal amounts of

• white pepper
• red pepper
• black pepper

(Start with 1/4 tsp of each. May need more if you like spicy hot. May get spicier hot as it sits.)

Then add shrimp. It will immediately turn pink.

Turn heat off or down. You are done.

Serve over rice.

If it gets too spicy hot you can cool down with plain yogurt or cottage cheese.
