I made John Folse's recipe recently. Very good, a tad bit salty for my taste because I try and use less salt in my normal cooking, but very good

It’s the diced tomatoes and tomato sauce that make it so good.

I like Emeril’s from the episode of his Emeril Live show called “Cast Iron.” It aired in about 2001. I saw it and thought, Hell, I can do that. Went to the store for ingredients, made it, and really got into cooking afterward. The one in his Louisiana Real and Rustic is good too, but it lacks tomatoes.

You should have made a stock out of the carcases. I just made an etouffee with some fresh stock and it made it 200% better.

Any recipe that uses water is an immediate no-go


Here you go

Sorry, yours had TWO "or water" subs. Folse's is good

2 quarts crawfish stock or water

'cause one "or water" beats two "or water" every time.

Now I understand.
