Here is a recipe for a crab or seafood boil. It works well with Frogmore Stew, if you can't find crab boil.
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds shopping list
- 3 tablespoons coriander seeds shopping list
- 2 tablespoons whole allspice shopping list
- 2 tablespoons dill seeds shopping list
- 1 teaspoon whole cloves shopping list
- 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper shopping list
- 8 bay leaves shopping list
- salt and cayenne pepper (or liquid hot sauce) to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Combine all dry ingredients thoroughly. Place in a square of muslin or cheesecloth and tie securely with string, like a large sachet d'épices. Add salt and cayenne or hot sauce to the water to taste, then bring to a boil.
- When water for seafood is boiling, add the bag and boil for several minutes, until the boiling liquid is tinted and seasoned, then add vegetables and/or shellfish and cook until done, depending on what you're using.
- Yield: Enough crab boil seasoning for 5 pounds of seafood.
