As a person of Acadian descent, I approve. We made it without the rice and then served it with leftover pilaf like you didd your e’touffee.
Well I am giving it 5 stars I know it will be good. I made your Key Lime couple days ago, shared with my neighbor , they said it was magnificent. I was a little worried t about the crust. I have no Food Processor so I tried the Blender ( laughing are you not). So I continued with rolling pin and a towel, like your mom did. Not shy on the melted butter. I don’t know which was best, the pie or crust. Anyway I am a big fan of your You Tube Tutorials. And your sense of humor is great.

Can’t wait to try this recipe. How should I adjust the recipe if using regular rice?
This dish was very delicious!!!! To much mise en place though… took me an hour an half chop and prepare. Still loved watching you make it! I love watching you make everything you create!! Don’t ever stop teaching us!
