Meat

Crayfish meat is fully picked tail (and sometimes claw) flesh ready for salads, stuffings, bisques, and pies. Pre-cooked meat is convenient but milder than freshly boiled whole animals; check salt level on packs. Fold gently into warm sauces off the heat so the meat does not rubberise. Excellent in omelettes, ravioli fillings, and cold seafood salads with lemon and herbs.
