MAW PYE'S CRAWFISH STEW
It is in the heart of crawfish season in South Louisiana right now. So I thought I would share a very special recipe today. I can attribute this recipe to my Mother-in-law who made the best crawfish stew on earth. She taught me her secret recipe and now I will share it with all of you because this is so good, nobody should be...

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly and the stew turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more spice. I like my food spicy, so I would probably add a teaspoon or two of cayenne pepper. Other than that, this is a perfect recipe.
