Crawfish Seasoning Tips
When boiling crawfish, it is important to get the seasoning just right. Depending on your boiling methods, different amounts as well as types of seasoning should be used.
The most common method of seasoning boiled crawfish involves seasoning the boiling water prior to adding your crawfish. Typically, 1 pound of dry seasoning should be used per 10 pounds of crawfish. However, when using the liquid variety, less will be needed for the same effect. Some people prefer using a little bit of both varieties to obtain their "perfect blend". If you find your crawfish are not coming out spicy enough, you can always throw a little dry seasoning on top after boiling.
Another method of seasoning your crawfish, which many people are quite fond of, is seasoning the crawfish after the boiling process. This is achieved by first boiling your crawfish in fresh clear water. When finished boiling, place the crawfish in a sealable container (i.e. large ice chest) and then pour your desired amount of seasoning all over the crawfish. Using a pair of thick rubber gloves, mix the crawfish around in the container until seasoning is distributed evenly throughout. Promptly close the container, allow the crawfish to steam for 5-10 minutes and then enjoy!
