I never thought of making crawfish cakes as you regularly would using crab meat. I added a little Old Bay seasoning to the recipe to add a Chesapeake flair along with some shelled crawfish. They were excellent! Thank you for posting.
Sounds good as Old Bay seasoning I am sure is as popular there as our Cajun seasoning here. Now, we love our Louisiana crawfish!
