From River Road Community Cookbook - 1980 "Shrimp Creole is probably one of the most widespread of the old Creole classics, and rightfully so because it's certainly one of the best. This spicy version gains extra richness from the addition of Burgundy Wine."

This shrimp creole was a bit too spicy for my taste, but overall it was a good dish. The shrimp was cooked well, and the sauce had a nice flavor. I would make it again, but I would use less cayenne pepper next time.
