Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• First, clarify the butter. Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Let it simmer until the foam rises to the top.
• Once the butter stops making crackling noises and there is no longer any foam rising to the top, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
• Most of the solids will be on the bottom. Skim off any foam with a spoon. Strain through a cheesecloth-lined strainer.
• After clarifying the butter, you will have about 4 to 5 tablespoons for the roux.
• Put the clarified butter in a Dutch oven or large heavy saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat and add the flour.
• Cook, whisking constantly, until the roux is golden brown, about the color of peanut butter.
• Add the chopped onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic to the roux and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent, about 10 to 12 minutes.
• Add the clam juice or shrimp stock and diced tomatoes, along with 1 tablespoon of the Creole seasoning, ground black pepper, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes or until the vegetables are softened.
• If the sauce mixture seems too thick, thin it with a little more clam juice, shrimp stock, or some chicken broth. Taste and add more Creole seasoning and salt, as needed.
• Add the shrimp and continue cooking for about 3 to 4 minutes or until the shrimp are cooked through.
• For each serving, put a big scoop of rice in the center of a deep plate or shallow bowl. Spoon the shrimp étouffée around the rice. Sprinkle with a little fresh chopped parsley or green onion tops. Serve with a simple tossed salad and crusty French bread or rolls.
