SWEDISH CRAYFISH BOIL
Kraftskiva, a Swedish harvest celebration, is centered around a heaping platter of crayfish, which have been boiled with fresh dill. Crayfish need little more than a dollop of lemony mayonnaise to accentuate their delicate flavor.

Steps:
- Rinse crayfish under cold water. Discard any that don't move. Bring water, stout, salt, sugar, and chile to a boil in a large pot. Add dill sprigs and crowns and crayfish. Cover pot, and return to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Fill the sink halfway with cold water. Place pot in sink, and uncover. Dampen a large piece of crumpled parchment with cold water, and place it on surface of broth. After 20 minutes, replace water in sink with cold water and ice. Repeat every 30 minutes until crayfish and broth cool, about 2 hours.
- Mix mayonnaise, creme fraiche, lemon zest and juice in a small bowl. Season with salt.
- Drain crayfish, arrange on a large platter, and garnish with crowns of dill. Serve with lemon wedges and mayonnaise mixture. To eat crayfish, pinch the head and twist the tail to separate. Carefully remove meat from tail by pinching from the bottom and breaking through the rings on the shell. (The head carries flavorful juices. Either suck the head, or discard.)
SWEDISH-STYLE DILL-POACHED CRAYFISH
Steps:
- 1. Bring the 8 quarts of water to a boil and blanch the crayfish for 2 minutes and then plunge them into ice water. Discard water. 2. Bring the 12 quarts of water, dill, salt, beer and sugar to a boil. 3. Add crayfish and cook for 5 minutes. 4. Remove crayfish and place in a container that can be sealed. Pour liquid over the crayfish, cover, and place in fridge for 24 hours. 5. Remove crayfish from liquid and serve cold. This dish is sometimes served with an herb aioli dipping sauce.
ANDREAS VIESTAD'S BOILED CRAWFISH WITH DILL
A very subtle and simple Swedish method for crawfish (or shrimp) by Andreas Viestad. It has a very distinct almost "caramelized" aroma. I saw this prepared on Andreas's cooking show; what you don't hear from this recipe is his recommendation to keep live crawfish in water in your bathtub overnight so they can be "cleaned out", if you know what I mean. I've prepared this with shrimp as well, and amazingly, they don't turn into hockey pucks after the 1 to 2 hour sitting time (and this time is reflected in the prep).
