Shrimp Bisque

Shrimp bisque is a traditional Cajun dish originating from Louisiana. The soup is usually made with a combination of large shrimp, seafood broth, shrimp broth, butter, bell peppers, shallots, garlic, flour, cream, brandy, hot sauce, and seasonings.

The shrimps are simmered in the broth until the liquid is reduced, while a combination of butter, bell peppers, shallots, and garlic is sautéed and sprinkled with flour and mixed with brandy and cream until the combination becomes thick. The cooked shrimps are added to the pot and simmered until hot, and the dish is then served, often garnished with sliced green onions or parsley.
