Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
  • 3 tablespoons coriander seeds
  • 2 tablespoons whole allspice
  • 2 tablespoons dill seeds
  • 1 teaspoon whole cloves
  • 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
  • 8 bay leaves
  • Salt and cayenne pepper (or liquid hot sauce) to taste

Directions
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Yield: Enough crab boil seasoning for 5 pounds of seafood.

Welcome, great post.


Frogmore Stew is great! My sister had fixed a big pot and we were all enjoying the meal when she started breaking out with the hives!! Come to find out she was allergic to shellfish!! Not funny at the time :)
