This soup is a staple in several New Orleans restaurants. If you don't like it spicy do not use the Creole seasoning, just add more salt and pepper. Serve with salad and garlic bread. It's easy and delicious!

CRAWFISH (SHRIMP) AND CORN SOUP

Hubby had this soup in New Orleans when we were visiting friends. He loved it, and asked for the recipe. He has made it several times since then, usually when he is "on his own" for dinner (its very easy to prepare). Being a vegetarian--I've never tried it, so I don't have an opinion.

CRAWFISH AND CORN SOUP

This is the creamiest, most delicious soup ever. It is super easy to make also. If you don't like crawfish, you can use crab or shrimp in its place. I've made it with all these types of seafood and it is still delicious.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 c butter
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1 medium onions, yellow, medium
1/2 c green onions
4 c milk
2 can(s) cream corn (15 oz. cans)
1 can(s) whole kernel corn (15 oz. can)
1 can(s) cream of potato soup
1 tsp creole seasoning
1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce
2 caps full of zatarain's liquid crab boil
1 lb crawfish, peeled
salt (to taste)

Steps:

  • 1. Melt butter in a large pot over low heat.
  • 2. Gradually stir in flour.
  • 3. Cook, stirring constantly to make a light roux, about 5 minutes.
  • 4. Add onion, cook until wilted.
  • 5. Pour in milk, creamed corn, whole kernel corn, and cream of potato soup. Stir to combine.
  • 6. Then add creole seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, crab boil, and salt. Stir to combine and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes.
  • 7. Add crawfish, cook for 20 more minutes.
  • 8. **If you use crab or shrimp, once you add seafood reduce final cooking time to 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh crawfish. Fresh crawfish will give your soup the best flavor. If you can't find fresh crawfish, you can use frozen crawfish, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the crawfish. Crawfish only need to be cooked for a few minutes, or they will become tough. Add them to the soup at the end of the cooking process and simmer for just until heated through.
  • Use a flavorful broth. A good quality broth will make all the difference in your soup. Choose a broth that is made with real ingredients and has a rich flavor. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even fish broth.
  • Add plenty of vegetables. Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your soup. Use a variety of vegetables, such as corn, potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions.
  • Season the soup to taste. Once the soup is finished, taste it and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or cayenne pepper.

Conclusion:

Crawfish and corn soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover crawfish. With its creamy broth, tender crawfish, and sweet corn, this soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
