Crawfish are the rarest of seafood: admired by the refined palate of the gourmand, they’re just as comfortable as the star of a cajun crawfish boil — down in Louisiana, of course.
With Louisiana being the spiritual home of the crawfish, its Red Swamp variety is the most well-known in America. But there’s a catch — the Red Swamp season is painfully short.
So, rather than make you go without, we’ve found two stunning alternatives to the famous Red Swamp that can easily compete for the palate of any crawdad lover — giving you that clean, sweet flavor only fresh, well-caught crawfish can offer.

Crawfish or crayfish — the words can be used interchangeably — are one of those rare products in the culinary world highly revered by both gourmands and just plain folks.
The “crawfish boil” is not exclusive to Cajuns in the Louisiana Bayou. Crawfish festivals now range from Scandinavia and Vienna to France and New Zealand, attesting to the massive popularity of this delicious little “mud-bug.”
More than 250 species exist in America, but the Red Swamp from Louisiana is the most well known variety.
Unfortunately, the Louisiana season is now closed. For those who dote on crawfish, these are the times that try their souls. They are fraught with crawfish longing and wistful memories of fiery etouffee.
