Last time I bought real crab in a store was 20 some years ago at Odd/Big
Lots where they had it @ U$1/6.5 oz can. I cleaned the shelf. Truth to
tell - it wasn't all that much better than surimi for all that it was
the "Real McCoy". Last time I bought crab in a restaurant was at the Red
Lobster. They had an AYCE deal and I ate a lot. Bv)= The ratio of shell
to flesh was definitely in favour of the shells. And it was a lot of
work.
My best experience with crab was at the Seattle Picnic hosted by Hap
Newsome. He had scored some fresh-off-the-boat Dungeness crab and we
set up a pot of boiling water there on Puget Sound and ate the critters
fresh from the Jacuzzi. The gulls got the leftovers. Sweeeeeet!!!!
1 tb Chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/2 tb Fine chopped garlic
1/3 c Minced green onions
1 ts Minced ginger
3/4 c Soy sauce
1/2 c Honey
3 Cooked Dungeness crabs;
- cleaned, cracked
1/4 c Peppercorns
3 tb Oil
Start with live crabs. Kill 3 (5 1/4 to 6 lb. total), and
clean and crack them. Marinate pieces (step 1), then lift
out and add to hot oil (step 3), cover, and stir often for 5
minutes. Add marinade and 1 1/2 tablespoons pepper to pan
and stir often until crab shells are bright red, about 5
minutes more. Serve with steamed white rice.
In a large bowl, combine cilantro, garlic, onions, ginger,
soy, and honey. Add crab pieces. Cover and chill 15 minutes
to 1 hour, turning crab often.
Coarsely grind pepper in a coffee grinder or crush with a
rolling pin.
Pour oil into a 14" wok or 6 to 8 qt pan over medium-high
heat. Pour crab, marinade, and 1 1/2 tablespoons pepper into
wok. Stir often until crab is steaming hot, about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle remaining pepper over crab and mix well. Ladle crab
and juices into bowls.
Yield: Makes 4 servings
