NEW CRAWFISH ETOUFFEE
Paul Prudhomme was 390 pounds in 1993 when Marian Burros caught up with him in New York to talk about his efforts to lose weight. He was, he said, trying to develop new versions of his old recipes, with less fat and just as much flavor. This etouffee was one of them. "Rich and full flavored," Ms. Burros declared. True indeed. And worth cooking.

Steps:
- To make the seasoning mix, combine the salt, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, mustard, black pepper, white pepper and cayenne in a small bowl, and set aside. Preheat a 10-inch skillet, preferably nonstick, over high heat for about 4 minutes.
- Place the onions, peppers, celery and two teaspoons of the seasoning mix in the hot skillet. Stir and cook, scraping the bottom of the skillet, about 2 minutes. Stir in the apple juice, scraping bottom of skillet, and cook until the liquid evaporates and a glaze forms, about 7 or 8 minutes.
- Add the browned flour and remaining seasoning mix, and stir until a paste forms. If necessary, add small amounts of stock to moisten the flour. Spread the mixture across the bottom of the skillet and cook until the mixture sticks to the pan, 1 to 3 minutes.
- Stir in the stock and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook for two minutes, add the crawfish tails, mix well, and return to a full boil, and remove immediately. Serve over rice.
