  • Inspired by a pound of frozen #crawfish tails I received from Louisiana from Lovely Erin, I decided to cook crawfish two ways: in étouffée and in a Cajun-style boil. 🦞

    Next time instead of mayo and ketchup, put melted butter and Crystal hot sauce with a little bit of your cajun seasoning together and dip the Crawfish bowl items in there! SO GOOD!

    You gotta let that crawfish sit for about 15-20 min to soak up that seasoning. Or even longer with a few beers lol. Louisiana proud!! Glad your enjoying it

    FINALLY! as a Louisiana native, i will say you did a great job. there’s a particular “crawfish boil” seasoning that we use that packs such a strong punch, most people can’t even cook it inside but man, oh man, the flavor! i’ll put together and send a summer package when i go home at the end of this month!

    Emmy is ALWAYS invited to the cookout (or in this case, the seafood boil). 🍗🥩🍖

    Hi, Emmy! I was born and raised in New Orleans, so I loooove seeing you do this. Chef Paul's recipes are OUTSTANDING. The only recommendation that I have for the crawfish boil is instead of using a bunch of Cajun seasoning, use some Zatarains crawfish boil. It's a red liquid similar to red chili oil. It takes the flavor of the crawfish to another level. Life changing, girl. Try it!

    I used to have a pet crayfish named Fernando. He was really sweet.

    Normally we make etouffee with the leftover tails from the boil. And if you say you never have leftovers from a boil, then you are being stingy, and need to buy another sack, or two.

    EMMY!!!!! You trying and LIKING crawfish makes me so happy! We eat them a lot in MS and LA. The lady who sent you that box of southern goodness truly shows the spirit of people from south Louisiana. They are warm and kind, and rarely meet a stranger. (LOOK UP THE CAJUN NAVY!!!)

    Happy to see your liking our delicious food. We are Louisiana proud. I’m from Golden Meadow, Louisiana, we catch our own crawfish in the back of my Mom’s street, cook em up and have a big ole crawfish bowl with the family. Just like you said giant table covered with newspapers, everything on the table, Mom and Pop, 5 kids, 8 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren. All eating, laughing and telling stories about days gone by and making new memories. We’re really lucky that we can still have these cherished days. I hope you and your family get to enjoy more Cajun traditions. Thanks Emmy.❤️

    I love Étouffée! When I live in Myrtle Beach, I had a friend from Lafayette, Louisiana and he had the best I ever had. We had a hurricane and he made it on the grill, rain and wind be damned...We ate good the whole time without power. 😂

    A lot of times the drop smoked sausages in the water to boil too. I like eating the onion with the potato. That platter of crayfish was just a snack for some Cajuns. 🤣

    After a heavy rain, and the crawfish mounds come up in my yard, my cat Rusev hunts them and brings them to me.
