• For crawfish;
• Combine first 7 ingredients in 10-to 12-quart large pot. Add 4 quarts water and 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to boil over high heat, stirring until salt dissolves. Boil 5 minutes. Add crawfish and boil 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add ice cubes to pot to stop cooking. Let crawfish sit in cooking liquid 15 minutes.
• Using slotted spoon, transfer all crawfish to large bowl. Reserve 10 whole crawfish for garnish. Working with remaining crawfish 1 at a time, hold head and body with 1 hand and twist off tail portion with opposite hand. Discard head portion. Peel shell off tail and clean tail.

CRAWFISH, CRAB AND SHRIMP CEVICHE

CAJUN CRAWFISH AND SHRIMP ÉTOUFFéE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Gradually stir in flour, and stir constantly until the mixture turns 'peanut butter' brown or darker, at least 15 or 20 minutes. I use a large fork with the flat side to the bottom of the pan in a side to side motion. This is your base sauce or 'roux'. It is very important to stir this constantly. If by chance the roux burns, discard and start over.
• Once the roux is browned, add the onions, garlic, celery and bell pepper to the skillet, and saute for about 5 minutes to soften. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and fish stock, and season with the seafood seasoning. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Season the sauce with hot pepper sauce and cayenne pepper (if using), and add the crawfish and shrimp. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque.
