Crawfish are freshwater crustaceans that resemble small lobsters and are found in various bodies of water across the United States, particularly in the southern states like Louisiana. They are enjoyed for their tender, sweet meat and are a staple in Southern cuisine, especially in dishes like crawfish boils, étouffée, gumbo, and jambalaya.
On National Crawfish Day, people across the country celebrate by indulging in delicious crawfish dishes, hosting crawfish boils with friends and family, and exploring different recipes featuring this tasty crustacean. It's also a time to appreciate the cultural significance of crawfish in Southern traditions and to support local fishermen and businesses that rely on crawfish harvesting and distribution.
