    SRP, that looks amazing. Growing up in the Midwest in the USA we grew up eating tons of crawfish. We made them in a boil but what you made may have to hit my kitchen sooner rather than later!!

    The top shelf of my freezer is full of gallon bags of half-cooked crawfish. I've been wanting to start using them up (girlfriend doesn't like when I smell up the house with the traditional crawfish boil smells). And, she doesn't like crawfish (she doesn't *think* she likes crawfish) but she loves anything with pasta. This might be the answer. Thanks, Scott!

    Be sure to cook the pasta in the same water / court bouillon in which you cooked the crayfish! Then reserve that water, adding more, to cook the shells to make a bisque.

    You can purge them before you cook them. By placing them in salt water while their still alive. It will cause them to throw up all the gritty stuff they’ve recently ate. We usually purge them twice before we cook them. You’ll enjoy them more nice and clean.

    I can't ever recall finding any that big. They're obviously lacking predators over there, I hope liberal trapping is enough to keep them from completely taking over.
