Preparation edit
Crawfish pie is prepared by making a roux with bell peppers, onions and celery, the "holy trinity" of Cajun cooking. Seafood stock and cooked crawfish tails are then added to the roux before it is poured into a pie crust. Spices and aromatics, including possibly garlic, black pepper, paprika and parsley, are also included in the roux.[4][5]
In popular culture edit
The dish is mentioned in the Hank Williams song "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)", along with other common Cajun dishes such as jambalaya and gumbo.[6]
