Origin: Of uncertain origin. Probably a borrowing from French. Etymons: French moquer, chou.
Etymology: Origin uncertain. Probably < Louisiana French, apparently ultimately < French moquer mock v. + chou cabbage (see cole n.1), although this may be a folk etymology. Compare:1969 M. Land New Orleans Cuisine ix. 132 Some natives believe that this succulent stew was brought to Louisiana by the Spanish, and that the name originated with the Spanish name ‘machica’ which was a dish of toasted corn meal sweetened with sugar and spices. Others think the name came from the word ‘maigrichou’ which means ‘a thin child’ as this dish was originally more soup than stew. The ‘Cajuns’ of Louisiana have their own interpretation making it a dish cooked with cabbage and calling it ‘mogue-chou’ or ‘mock cabbage’.
