INSTRUCTIONS
In a bowl whisk together horseradish, mustard, vinegar, paprika, salt, and
cayenne and add 1/3 cup of oil in a stream, whisking until emulsified. Stir
in scallions and celery. Remoulade may be made 1 day ahead and kept
chilled, covered.
In a bowl dredge crawfish in seasoned flour and shake in a sieve to remove
excess flour. In a kettle heat 1 1/2 inches of additional oil to 390#F. on
a deep-fat thermometer and fry crawfish 4 batches 45 seconds, or until
golden. Transfer crawfish with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
In a bowl toss together romaine and radicchio and divide among 6 plates.
Arrange crawfish on lettuce and serve with remoulade.
Serves 6 as a first course.
