ZATARAIN'S COPYCAT CRAB BOIL MIX
Zatarains was the real thing and boxes of it were found in just about every home in New Orleans. We also like to add 2-3 lemons, quartered, to the water. This is enough for 5lbs shrimp or a dozen blue swimmers.

ZATARAIN'S-STYLE SEAFOOD BOIL - SEASONING MIX
This is simple, sweetly spicy boil for seafood (or veggies) with a delicious subtle flavor complemented by lemon and garlic. Cook time is time spent simmering flavors together before adding seafood or vegetables.

Steps:
- Combine all dry ingredients (except salt) in a square of cheesecloth and tie with string.
- Bring a large pot of water (enough for about 4 pounds of seafood) to a boil, add the bag of seasoning, salt and cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
- At this point, I also like to add one lemon, sliced, and 4 to 6 cloves of garlic, slivered or sliced.
- Let the seafood boil liquid simmer for at least 30 minutes or until water is tinted and seasoned.
- Add seafood or vegetables, and cook until done.
- Drain and ENJOY!
