Here is a sample of a few crayfish top flavor picks...


Crayfish with Garlic

The greatest pleasure of eating Braised Crayfish with Minced Garlic is the ever-present garlic-forward flavor.

The crayfish meat is soaked in a garlic broth, chock-full of rich garlicky goodness that lingers long after the meal ends.


Spicy Crayfish

Braised Spicy Crayfish is the soul of Shanghai summer. With chili, Chinese prickly-ash and a handful of secret spices, the crayfish is stir-fried.

After cooking, the bright red crayfish emit a red oil that pleasantly permeates the soup the crayfish swim in upon serving.

When you gently peel the crayfish, you can hear the shell pop, and the tender meat springs freely from the shell, ready to be devoured.
