I don't want to make a new thread just for this, and this is the perfect place to ask it, I think.

Is it ever acceptable to eat your shrimp etouffee or shrimp creole over dirty rice? I'm craving both, and want to make them tomorrow, but I'm wondering if the combination of shrimp etouffee and dirty rice will be too much.

mfw cajun is slang for the acadians who got kicked out of the canadian maritimes by the british

There's really no wrong way to eat Cajun food, since it is of itself a product of putting conflicting things together.
I'd try creole rather than etouffee, but that's just me.
