Crawfish (Shrimp) and Corn Soup

Tue, 13 Aug 2002 18:05:19 -0400

Hubby had this soup in New Orleans when we were visiting friends. He loved it, and asked for the recipe. He has made it several times since then, usually when he is "on his own" for dinner (its very easy to prepare). Being a vegetarian--I've never tried it, so I don't have an opinion. -- posted by Dee514

Queso Dip with Crawfish (Spicy)

Fri, 03 Jan 2003 20:08:09 -0500

We ordered a dip like this at a restaurant recently and I decided to try and re-create it. Thanks to the "chipotle" suggestion from my bud Riff I believe this is exact. It may sound awkward with crawfish but I assure you it is wonderful and ever so easy to make. -- posted by Risë

An easy to make dish that's always a crowd pleaser. Shrimp can be substituted for the crawfish tails. -- posted by Melissa Spangler

Prudhomme's Crawfish Boudin - Boudain D'ecrevisses - Louisiana Crawfish and Rice Sausage

Sun, 20 Jun 2004 19:59:16 -0400

A flavorful blast from the Prudhomme family cookbook. To stuff the casings, you will need a meat grinder with a sausage horn attachment. If you don't have such a device, use the mixture to make fried crawfish patties by shaping 1/4 cup of filling into a 1/2 inch thick patty and frying in hot oil until golden brown on both sides. -- posted by Molly53

Crawfish Etouffee

Mon, 28 Jun 2004 20:00:29 -0400

I loved cajun food before living in Baton Rouge, LA for a time. I really learned to love it while living there. Most of the etouffee I have eaten has a heavy roux. This is a lighter sauce. The recipe was downloaded from another site a few years ago. -- posted by PaulaG

Cajun Crawfish Enchiladas

Tue, 03 Jan 2006 22:32:38 -0500

While this cajun lady was living in Corpus Christi I was challenged to cook up a mexican dish with crawfish for a pot luck dinner. Cajuns are known for what we have around us and try to make something great out of it. By the way...it was a winner. -- posted by Jerrie T

Easy Crawfish Pistolettes

Mon, 13 Mar 2006 19:55:53 -0500

I found the basic recipe for this online a few years ago. I omitted mushroom soup (not my thing), and added hot pork sausage, as a request from my boss at the time. Prep time is a guess (depending on the crawfish you use), but they're easy to make and i've never had leftovers! -- posted by christy m.

Good Ol' Gumbo

Tue, 08 Aug 2006 17:06:59 -0400

This is a great recipe for anyone who wants to try out their hand making authentic gumbo for the first time. It may seem like a lot, but don't let it scare you. It's easier than it looks. I like using chicken and shrimp in mine but you can use just about any kind of meat(s) you want. For those of you who don't realy like okra, good news, you can leave out that part if you want. It'll still taste great. Well, have fun cooking and enjoy! P.S. Cooking this goes great with a beer!;) -- posted by Ashley R. T. Shrout (ARTS)

Sherry's Spicy Crawfish Dip

Wed, 30 Aug 2006 20:24:33 -0400

This is standard fare at all tailgating parties, backyard fete's and anything in between. I've been making it for about 5 years and had NOTHING but compliments. BEWARE...this is spicy hot! -- posted by Sherrybeth

Shrimp and Crawfish Creole

Sun, 19 Nov 2006 14:32:09 -0500

This is an easy and fun recipe and semi-quick to cook. There are so many different ways of preparing this dish, and this is how my grandmother taught me. Bon Appétit! -- posted by Chef ArronA

Crawfish Cornbread

Fri, 16 Feb 2007 22:51:28 -0500

This recipe was in our local paper during the holidays. I haven't tried it yet but plan to soon. I have had a commercially made version of this and it was fairly good but I think homemade anything is much better! Hope you'll give it a try and let me know how you like it. Edited: I finally made this and it is a wonderful recipe. Many people don't have crawfish, so I think lightly boiled shrimp could easily be substituted for the crawfish. Also, 1/2 tsp cajun seasoning could be added for an extra kick. -- posted by Lunchmeat

Tabasco Remoulade

Try this version of the classic French dish to be served with crayfish. -- posted by English_Rose

Crawfish Stew for a Crowd

Thu, 16 Aug 2007 15:41:21 -0400

This is a GREAT recipe to serve about 30 people. We have made it at church suppers, for tailgaiting parties, patio parties and various other get togethers and it always gets a good review. We serve it over rice AND the recipe can easily be reduced to feed a much smaller crowd. -- posted by Sherrybeth

Redclaw Yabby (Crawfish) in Red Thai Style Sauce

Mon, 01 Oct 2007 19:51:56 -0400

Another recipe to use the redclaw yabbies we've been catching. Redclaws are apparently closely related to crawfish. This was pretty mild as I didn't want to over power the delicate flavour of the yabbies. -- posted by JustJanS

Oil Rig Etouffee (Crawfish)

Wed, 20 Feb 2008 19:07:14 -0500

My DH got this recipe from a true Cajun while visiting an offshore oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico. Not a typical etouffee, but tasty none the less. This recipe caters to the fact that there are limited grocery options 100 miles from land. Louisiana crawfish tails are the ideal, but Chinese will work as well. Tonys Chachere's More Spice Seasoning is the best Creole seasoning to use. -- posted by Hadice

Cream of Crawfish Boil Soup

Tue, 12 May 2009 01:14:38 -0400

I just invented this tonight, after getting "stuck" with a couple of pounds of crawfish from a crawfish boil. It's so good I wanted to hop around the kitchen singing. This recipe is for crawfish boil leftovers; it won't be the same otherwise. You'll need two pounds of whole crawfish plus the corn, potatoes, etc, that were boiled with them. (My two-pound package contained two short corns on the cob, four little new potatoes, and two pounds of whole crawfish.) You can use whatever proportions you like, and don't let anybody tell you otherwise. -- posted by lolsuz

Crawfish Mirliton (Chayote) Soup

Thu, 14 May 2009 15:59:21 -0400

My Cajun mother makes a wonderful mirliton casserole for the holidays that's always a hit. I had a craving for mirliton and crawfish one day, and pieced together this soup from several recipes and a few traditional Cajun cooking methods. Some people prefer to peel and pit mirliton before using them, but the whole fruit is edible. Crawfish tails are usually mostly cooked before being peeled and bagged, but it's best to be on the safe side. Sauteing them first makes sure that they are fully cooked and flavors the butter for the rest of the soup. -- posted by Jennifer Cross

Joe's Coon/Ass Crawfish Etouffee

Tue, 23 Jun 2009 14:48:17 -0400

Special thanks to my Cajun step-dad for showing me the basic's to start off with. As with most etouffee's i have added my own touch. My family loves it and always wants me to make it. -- posted by Chef Teer

Kim's Shrimp and Corn Soup

Sun, 09 Aug 2009 21:00:48 -0400

Shrimp and Corn Crock pot Soup or Chowder whatever you want to call it it's wonderful and delicious and hard to stop eating. We had this on vacation with our friends this summer at our Condo. Kim was our head cook and this was enjoyed by everyone..even our picky 6 year old! So delicious with a loaf of crusty french bread to sop up all the juice! and so very easy to make...Hope everyone enjoys! I put the recipe here so I won't lose it! Not at all low in calories but super!! -- posted by Loves_2cook

Chilled Corn & Crayfish Soup/Creme Fraiche & Chives

Thu, 20 Aug 2009 02:05:40 -0400

This delicious chilled soup recipe, courtesy of chef Emeril Lagasse is a perfect summer dish, Cook soup until corn is very tender and to serve ladle soup into chilled bowls. This works as a meal on it's own or paired with many of Emeril's recipes - it would even be wonderful during fall nights, as well ;) Chilling not included in time span. -- posted by Manami
