CRAWFISH DEVILED EGGS

Brought to you by: Birdy’s New Orleans

Ingredients: 

  • 12 Boiled Eggs (halved with yolks and whites separated)
  • Blue Plate Mayonnaise 
  • 1 T Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup Louisiana Hot Sauce
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 lb Louisiana crawfish tails 
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup corn flour
  • 1/2 cup corn starch 
  • 2 T creole seasoning 

Method: 

  1. Marinate crawfish in buttermilk and 1/2 cup hot sauce and set aside.
  2. Take the remaining hot and reduce over medium heat until very thick. 
  3. For egg yolk: Push boiled egg yolks through a fine mesh, then add dijon mustard and enough mayonnaise to make a smooth, fluffy yolk mixture. Season with salt and pepper. In a piping bag, fill each egg white generously with yolk mixture. 
  4. In a preheated pot of oil to 350 degrees, fry crawfish in two batches for 2 to 3 minutes or until crispy and golden brown. 
  5. Once the crawfish are drained, garnish the deviled egg with fried crawfish, a bit of the hot sauce reduction, and green onion.
