Steps:
- PURGE CRAWFISH.
- First thing is to purge crawfish in a separate tub. to do this you simply dump the crawfish in a wash tub or something of size,fill with water over top of crawfish,and then sprinkle a box of salt all over them. Let crawfish set in the salt water for amount of time it takes to get water boiling in stock pot. Then drain & rinse them real good before adding to the pot. (Note: follow below directions before adding crawfish to pot.).
- DIRECTIONS.
- Fill 100 quart stock pot a lil over half full of water. Add crab boil, cayenne pepper, bay leaves, butter, lemons and salt. Bring to a boil for 10 minutes.
- Add potatoes, corn, onion, mushrooms, and cut garlic pods. Boil another 10 minutes Add crawfish, bring back to a boil for about 5 minutes.
- Cut fire, put in 1 bag of ice and immediately cover pot with lid. Let soak 20 to 30 minutes.

ORIGINAL CRAWFISH OR SHRIMP MONICA
Unlike Crawfish Etoufee, this rich creamy dish is so simple, with only a handful of ingredients, yet very flavorful. Some recipes get too complicated and the original Crawfish Monica recipe just didn't have all that stuff in it. Try this for yourself and see what I mean. Use ONLY Louisiana Crawfish - Not Chinese. If those aren't...

Steps:
- 1. Cook pasta in salt water according to the directions on the package. Drain, then rinse under cool water to stop the cooking. Drain again, thoroughly.
- 2. Melt the butter in a large skillet and saute onions and garlic for 3 minutes.
- 3. *If using raw shrimp, add them with the onions and garlic at the beginning.
- 4. Add the crawfish and half-and-half, sauté until bubbly.
- 5. Add Creole seasoning - 1 big pinch then taste. Add more as needed but tasting before adding the next pinch until you think it's right. Add salt if needed. If you've boiled your own crawfish add the crawfish fat to the mixture as well.
- 6. Cook for 5 - 10 minutes over medium heat until the sauce thickens.
- 7. Add the pasta to the pot and toss well. You may not need to use all of the pasta. (I double the recipe when using the whole pound of pasta.) Let it sit for about 10 minutes over very low heat, stirring often.
- 8. Serve immediately, with lots of French bread and a nice white wine. Buon Appetito!
- 9. *COOKS NOTE: Most of the time I use half Heavy Cream and half - Half and Half, or in other words 1 1/3 cups heavy cream and 2/3 cups milk. I generally buy Heavy Cream because it can be cut with milk to make Half and Half. The sauce seems to thicken better than straight Half and Half but using all Heavy Cream is too thick.
- 10. *Tip: The sauce is excellent over Redfish on da Half Shell or grilled filets - I call it Redfish Monica.
- 11. *Options: If you don't have crawfish, use bay scallops, shrimp, lump crabmeat (add last and fold in gently).

ALFREDO CRAWFISH WITH PENNE PASTA
This recipe uses an authentic, homemade alfredo cream sauce as a base, so if staying light is the goal...this won't fit your flight-plan. It uses real butter and heavy cream and other ingredients to make a dish of goodness you've only had in top restaurants. The good news is, it's quick and easy enough for a novice to make with good results. (Unless you cook on HIGH and burn the butter like one of the reviewers did... :-)) Enjoy!

Steps:
- melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once butter stops foaming, add the garlic and cook about 2 minutes. It's important to note, I said medium heat. I didn't say high or medium high. Butter is something you'll need to watch or you will ruin this dish before it begins. Add the thyme, cayenne pepper, black pepper and Cajun seasoning.
- Add the flour and cook another 3 minutes until flour is incorporated and begins to make a light roux. Yes -- 1/2 LB of butter and 1 Tablespoon of all purpose flour CAN make a roux. It's basically a thickened butter. Roll with it --.
- Add heavy cream and bring to low simmer. Add the Parmesan and Velveeta cheese and stir until creamy. *Sure you can use other cheeses and I'm sure the results will be amazing. Make sure it is a good melting cheese or blend of cheeses. I used Velveeta here because I wanted it to be easy.
- Once the sauce is cooked to your desired thickness, add the chopped green onion and crawfish (thawed and patted dry) to the sauce.
- Serve over al dente penne pasta and garnish with fresh parsley.

CRAWFISH ALFREDO
Italian Seafood flavor. Can use many different types of seafood but I find the flavor of crawfish, shrimp or a combination are best. I made this recipeup many years ago and it is always a big hit with all of my friends. When cooked correctly it has a taste that keeps you comming back for more.

Steps:
- Always remember a Cajun cook's measurements are by taste and feeling of the day therefore this was a hard recipe to write down.
- All can or frozen ingredients can be substituted with fresh ingredients.
- In a pan put crawfish (leave crawfish fat in for taste or rinse and strain prior to sauteing for a whiter sauce), wine, and a couple pinches of seasoning.
- I use about 4 maybe 6 pinches of seasoning.
- Simmer on very low heat for 3 minutes.
- Take crawfish out of pan and set aside leaving wine and seasoning in pan.
- In another pan saute the onions, garlic, bell peppers, scallions, green onions, and carrots in some olive oil until onions are soft.
- About 5 minutes.
- Season while simmering with a few pinches of garlic salt, garlic pepper and a few more pinches of seasoning.
- Take the ingredients from the two pans (wine and onion pans) and pour into a large pot.
- Place on a low heat adding the zucchini, squash, corn, broccoli, cream cheese, parmesan cheese, parsley, rosemary, bay leaves and heavy cream.
- If necessary add more wine or cream to cover ingredients.
- Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low for 20 minutes.
- Stir occasionally and of course add a few more pinches of seasoning.
- While sauce is simmering add corn starch and water mixture to sauce to thicken.
- I usually mix two tbls of cornstarch with 4 oz of water in a glass, stir and slowly add to sauce avoiding clumping.
- Mix thoroughly and let heat for a few minutes before adding more until you get the consistency you want.
- One you get the consistency you want and you have heated for about 20 minutes add crawfish in and continue to stir on a low heat for 10 minutes.
- While main dish is simmering cook enough pasta for 4-6.
- Serve on a plate or in a bowl over pasta.
- Great with fresh green beans and of course garlic bread.
- Bon Appitite.

CRAWFISH FETTUCCINE
I have lived in this close-knit community all my life and enjoy cooking Cajun dishes, especially those with seafood. Along with a green salad and garlic bread, this dish is great for family gatherings. The recipe can easily be doubled to serve a larger group, and if you'd like it less spicy, remove the seeds from the jalapeno before chopping it. -Carolyn Lejeune, Welsh, Louisiana
