      I'll show you crab!
    2. DollinNYC
      You can keep your crabs, thankyouverymuch.
  3. libdrone
    I would make it into a casserole with aromatic veggies, breadcrumbs and lots and lots of cheese.
    1. cookingasshole
      but don't you think that would put the crab into the background?
  4. amybyrd21
    you suck again I cant get any here at all to far away from salt water of any kind ship me some now
    1. cookingasshole
      no way! all for me!
    2. amybyrd21
      They have to have bacon in it some where. Make them in mushrooms, stuffed with bacon and crab meat and some kind of cheese.
    3. cookingasshole
      that actually sounds like a really good idea!
    4. amybyrd21
      add shallots if you feel like it but do not use stove top stuffing. I actually had some that had stove top and crab meat. Nasty!
    5. cookingasshole
      don't worry...
  5. cookingasshole
    I hope my king crab came from the TimeBandit
    1. DollinNYC

    10. DollinNYC

    12. DollinNYC

  12. livefree
    I would fry that up into crab cakes and drink some wine! Yummy
  13. crazyTsu
    Aren't crabs cooked alive?
  14. HollytheHousewife
    Yes,all shell fish are.it can make u really sick if they're dead first. I can tell if shrimp,crawfish,or lobster is dead before it gets cooked,but I can't tell about crab
  15. crazyTsu
    What is the line between cruelty to animals and killing them for food?
    1. cookingasshole
      are you a hippie or something?
    2. crazyTsu
      What's a hippie? No I am just out there looking at your eating habits and wondering aloud
    3. crazyTsu
      You are probably a redneck
    4. cookingasshole
      I got a full on Kentucky Waterfall baby!
  16. bettieblogger
    This is not my recipe CA, but I have made these and they are really yummy..

    MUSHROOM CAPS STUFFED WITH CRAB

    18 lg. mushrooms, stems removed
    2 tbsp. olive oil

    FILLING:

    1 lb. crabmeat, shell & cartilage removed
    2 tsp. Old Bay Seasoning
    1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
    1/4 tsp. dry mustard
    2 tbsp. parsley, chopped
    2 slices white bread (crusts removed), minced
    1/4 c. mayonnaise
    1 egg, slightly beaten
    Dash of Tabasco sauce
    1/4 c. butter, melted

    Saute mushroom caps in oil for 2 minutes. Place in shallow casserole, stem side up. Combine filling ingredients, and stuff mushroom caps. May be refrigerated until ready to bake. Baste with butter and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Serve hot.

    You can also sprinkle a little lemon juice on them if you like
  17. HeadStones
    sounds very good. when I get some money in a few weeks I need to go get some. have not had it in sometime but love it when I can afford it.
  18. wagerwitch
    First thing - Please know I live where King Crab is officially the Mascot...

    1) Boil it/Steam it with frangranced water (seasons... You can cheat and use OLD BAY Seasoning... However, Bay leaves, mustard seed, Tarragon, Dill, Garlic, Pepper, Salt, Oregano, Rosemary will work just as good...)Use hammer/saw/nutcrackers/knives/fork to remove meat chunks. Dip in condiment of choice: butter with lemon garlic, butter alone, butter with other seasonings like dill/salt/lemon/garlic, Mayonnaise, 1000 Island, Ceasar Dressing, etc...

    2) Stir Fry Veggies and place inside stir fry at last minute

    3) Make Lobster sauce - and cook crab meat into it in big chunks. Put over steamed rice

    4) Boil elbow macaroni, cut celery, onion, black olives, sour or sweet pickles, mayo, mustard and add shredded crab meat in to make a macaroni salad... you can add seasonings like fresh dill, salt pepper, etc.

    5) Grill it - serve with your favorite meat or fish grilled dinners and veggies...

    6) Crab stuffed Mushrooms - many recipes to try...

    7) You can substitute any meat in soups or other dishes where flavor is appropriate.

    8) ANY CHOWDER - YUM...

    9) Mix with peppers, tomatoes, onions, sausage, seasonings and stir into wild rice - for a harlequin type of rice - YUMMY.

    10) Put in any Quiche --- especially any cream based quiche

    11) Make Crab Puffs (cheddar cheese puff recipes work really well!)

    12) take eggroll wrappers - roll crab, cream cheese, jalapeno or green chilies, salt pepper, dash of lemon pepper, roll wrapper and deep fry until golden brown. (we do this usually with salmon and halibut - we call them POPPERS... Each family has own recipe... this is ours.)


    There are a ton more things we do with crab - but that will give you some ideas.
    1. timethief
      @wagerwitch
      We do all the same recipes down here on the Canadian coast. We also do pot stickers (dim sum style) with crab meat, and of course, the two old standards, crab balls and crab cakes.

      BTW re: 4. I prefer egg noodles to macaroni, granted you do have to break them up before cooking.
    1. cookingasshole
      I am about to make crab cakes with a nice stir fry. I have so much of this crap I am going to be eating crab for days!
  19. crpitt
    I like crab cakes, thai style.

    Like these
    www.fishfanatics.co.uk/recipe-thai-crab-cakes.php
    1. cookingasshole
      what do you do that makes them Thai?
    2. crpitt
      Added link
    3. crpitt
      The chilli and ginger definitely add a lovely zing, also I love them with a sweet chilli sauce
    4. cookingasshole
      Those sound great for regular crappy crab but I don't know if I want to adulterate my King Crab that much.
    5. crpitt
      Well you have loads of crab meat do you not? And you could freeze some of these?
    6. cookingasshole
      I don't like to preserve crab meat...too sketchy.

      I guess I could just make it lower key with fewer main flavors.
    7. crpitt
      I have had no problems with doing it, but I wouldn't want to wish the galloping trots on McMonkey.
    8. cookingasshole
      "galloping trots" = loose bowel movement?
    9. crpitt
      Very loose
    10. cookingasshole
      I would not like for that to happen
    11. crpitt
      I think crab cakes would be pretty safe, as you are frying them.
    12. crpitt
      Excellent site
    13. cookingasshole
      that and this (www.foodsubs.com/) are my two favorite resources
  20. HollytheHousewife

    3. cookingasshole
      I don't get indigestion, crow
    4. crazyTsu
      Then you possibly dont eat what you cook!
    5. cookingasshole
      oh...I eat it.
    6. crazyTsu
      Unbelievable!
  22. tcinvestor

  28. exit2013
    I love crab meat! I like mine with butter please!
  29. cookingasshole
    I made those crab 'poppers.' They were excellent.



    1. cookingasshole
      I never made an egg roll before...I am surprised they turned out so well. They are REALLY easy.
  30. LisaNYC
    They look so delicious. I might have to hit the streets and look for something similar now.
  31. amybyrd21
    I still want crab bacon stuffed mushrooms.
    1. cookingasshole
      my woman hates mushrooms
    2. amybyrd21
      tough she also hates meat and you cook it so get busy!!!!
    3. cookingasshole
      haha! you got me!
  32. LisaNYC
    Did you watch Iron Chef last night? The secret ingredient was...........snails!!

    Ugh.

    Have you ever cooked with them, CA?
    1. cookingasshole
      Nope...I have never even consumed them!
  33. LisaNYC
    Don't! They looked really gross. But I guess some folks love them.
    1. cookingasshole
      I would like to give them a try but I don't see me loving them.
    2. amybyrd21
      They served them at Epcot but I could not get anyone to order them.
  34. cookingasshole
    I am thinking of making a crab and bacon bloody mary...
    1. amybyrd21
      put them in bacon cups. You can find out how to make them online. I was a pic the other day way cool
    2. cookingasshole
      bacon cups eh?
    3. amybyrd21
      yeah I will see if I can find it it was on twitter by one of the two bacon people I follow. They even posted bacon beer.

      4.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kp1lr1upm11qzvnxpo1_500.jpg
    4. cookingasshole
      that looks like too much work
    5. amybyrd21
      no take a oven proof form. Wrap ypu bacon around it and bake it. Not that hard. i ahve made bacon bowls before for eggs and such.
    6. DollinNYC

    6. cookingasshole
      nope...I am not going to be a victim of male pattern baldness. My luscious locks are here to stay.
  38. DollinNYC

    2. DollinNYC

    3. cookingasshole
      she says wow you look so virile with your Samson hair
    4. DollinNYC
      "Why does mommy cry when she looks at you?"
    5. cookingasshole

    I am a vegetarian but I have seen the chili crab recipe.


    First clean the crab, Heat oil in a pan,add ginger and garlic paste.
    add cut dried chili and chili powder,salt, drop in the crabs, a little water and cook for five minutes. Add tomatoes if you like.

    Try if you like spicy food
