grayfish knife on boiled crayfish


Fresh crayfish briefly boiled in water seasoned with salt and crown dill, a great (and expensive!) delicacy of the Nordic cuisine. The crayfish are left to cool in the strained cooking liquid, absorbing the flavour of salt and the wonderful aroma of dill. The crayfish are shelled and eaten with the hands, their tail and claw meat usually piled on freshly toasted, buttered bread topped with fresh dill. During the month of August, traditional crayfish parties are commonly arranged in Finland and Sweden.
