Recipe Instructions

* Note: See the "Basic Bread Dough For Stuffed Bread" and "Bayou Blast - {Emeril's Creole Seasoning}" recipes which are included in this collection.

Thoroughly butter a 9- by 5- by 4-inch loaf pan. On a lightly-floured work surface, roll dough into a 9- by 15-inch rectangle, with short side facing you. Leaving a 1-inch border, scatter dough evenly with diced cheese. In a small bowl toss crawfish tails with Bayou Blast to coat; sprinkle evenly over cheese. Starting with side closest to you, roll up dough into a log; brush edge with egg wash to seal. Transfer to loaf pan, seam-side down, cover with a dish towel and leave to proof until doubled, about 40 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Using a razor or serrated knife, make a shallow slash down center of dough, lengthwise, and brush with egg wash. Bake bread until brown and firm, about 30 minutes. Let bread cool in pan on a rack 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This recipe yields 1 loaf.
