According to sources, shrimp de Jonghe was invented at the turn of the 20th century by the de Jonghe brothers, who were Belgian immigrants and owners of De Jonghe's Hotel and Restaurant in Chicago. This garlicky, herbed casserole is one of the earliest Windy City specialties. It can be served as an appetizer or main course. My mother made it for special occasions.
