Claw

Crayfish claws hold small nuggets of rich meat—less yield than lobster claws but worth cracking at a boil. Larger signal and noble animals give more claw meat; red swamp claws are snack-sized. Crack after cooking; serve with the whole animal or pick for garnishes. Do not expect claw-only packs outside specialty processing.
