re: Crawfish boil -- what're your leftover recipes?

Garlic Bread.


Leave a stick of butter on the counter to warm up to room temp. Put all the boiled garlic into a food processor and blend till mostly smooth. Fold the garlic into the softened stick of butter, put in fridge for about 20min to firm up, then form into a log on a piece of wax paper. Wrap it up tight and then stick it in a ziplock freezer bag. Store in fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for a couple months.

If you were to use this butter for garlic bread, then chop some of the boiled tails up, toss them with some fresh parsley, lemon juice, a few capers and some white wine, then drizzle them onto the garlic bread and bake a couple minutes to warm everything through, you'd have a stupid good appetizer.
