Questions About Crawfish

(Compliments of Cajun's Crawfish Pond)

What do all those cajuns do with all that crawfish anyway?

Cajuns participate in a springtime activity known as a "Crawfish Boil" where we invite friends and neighbors over to our home to eat, drink and "pass a good time." The crawfish are boiled in a large pot over a butane burner with seasonings, corn, potatoes and onions. Once cooked, the pot is drained, and all the contents are poured over a large picnic table covered with newspaper or paper and everyone "digs in." This is served with a dip of mayonnaise, ketchup and mustard (maybe a few other ingredients to spice it up).
