Jazz Fest Recipe – Crawfish Monica
A Jazz Festival Standard. It just isn’t the Fest until you’ve had some Crawfish Monica. Now you can try it at home. For those of you whom crawfish is an oddity, allow me to point out that it is almost uiversally true that if you enjoy either shrimp or lobster you will love crawfish.
