CRAB TOAST



Crab Toast image

Like the very best crab cakes on earth, which have as little dulling, distracting or deadening filler as possible, these crab toasts take that ethos to the extreme. There is no call for bell pepper or bread crumbs or diced celery; just the best fresh, sweet, saline crab meat you can buy, gently seasoned with a little lemon juice, bound with a tiny amount of tangy crème fraîche, then piled onto a slab of good toast, still warm. The toast is made ever so luxurious with a slathering of nutty brown butter mayonnaise. These two simple components - crab and brown butter toast - act in concert, and a glass of cold rosé to wash them down makes for the most exhilarating, satisfying spring supper imaginable.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
1 whole egg plus 1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt
1/2 cup grapeseed oil
12 ounces crab meat
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons finely minced chives
1 teaspoon crème fraîche, sour cream, heavy cream or half-and-half
4 to 6 slices pane Francese, black pumpernickel or other rustic bread, toasted on both sides

Steps:

  • In a small sauce pot, brown the butter over medium heat, swirling the pot, until the butter is caramel-colored and has a nutty fragrance, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, scraping up all the milk solids from the bottom and sides of the pot while the butter is still hot, and let cool to room temperature.
  • Place the egg and egg yolk, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, a healthy pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon cold water in the bowl of a food processor. With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the grapeseed oil. Once all the oil has been added, the mayonnaise should be loose yet emulsified. While the processor is still running, slowly drizzle in the brown butter and any toasted milk solids. Season to taste with salt and set aside.
  • For the crab salad, gently and quickly mix crab meat, olive oil, chives, crème fraîche and remaining 1 teaspoon lemon juice together in a bowl. Season to taste with salt.
  • Schmear each piece of toasted bread with the brown butter mayonnaise evenly - as we like to say, "wall to wall." Divide the crab mixture among the slices, piling it evenly on top.

Categories     Fruit     Tomato     Bake     Apple     Crab     Curry     Fall     Sour Cream     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4 as a first course or light main course

Number Of Ingredients 22

3/4 pound peeky-toe or jumbo lump crab meat
1 Granny Smith apple
1 vine-ripened tomato
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon thinly sliced fresh chives
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 1/2 tablespoons sour cream
2 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 tablespoons milk
freshly ground white pepper
For tuiles
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
1/2 cup rice flour*
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/3 cup egg whites (from about 3 large eggs)
1/4 cup heavy cream
Garnish: julienne strips of tomato, sliced fresh chives, and curry powder
*available in Latino section of supermarkets and at natural foods stores

Steps:

  • Pick over crab meat to remove any bits of shell and cartilage and if using lump crab meat lightly shred. Peel and core apple and cut enough into 1/4-inch dice to measure 1/2cup plus 1 tablespoon. Peel and seed tomato and cut enough into 1/4-inch dice to measure 1/3 cup. Reserve 1 tablespoon each diced apple and tomato for sauce and in a bowl combine crab meat, remaining diced apple and tomato, 1 tablespoon chives, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 1/2 tablespoons sour cream, 1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise, and 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder, tossing to combine well. Chill filling.
  • In a bowl whisk together milk and remaining tablespoons lemon juice, sour cream, and mayonnaise and stir in reserved diced apple and tomato, remaining teaspoon chives, 1/2 teaspoon curry powder, and white pepper and salt to taste. Chill sauce while making tuiles.
  • Make tuiles:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a small saucepan melt butter over moderate heat and cool slightly. In a bowl whisk together flours, sugar, salt, white pepper, and nutmeg and whisk in whites until just combined. Whisk in cream until just combined and whisk in butter until just combined. On a baking sheet spread 2 teaspoons batter in an arc shape. With a pastry brush spread batter into a 5-inch-long arc, about 1 1/2 inches wide. Make 3 more arcs with some of remaining batter in same manner, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Bake tuiles in middle of oven until bubbly, crisp, and golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully transfer tuiles with a thin spatula to a rack to cool and make more tuiles in same manner. (There will be enough batter to make about 26 tuiles, more than you need for the napoleons; leftovers may be used as an hors d'oeuvre.)
  • Spoon 2 tablespoons filling onto a plate and top with a tuile. Make 2 more layers with 4 tablespoons filling and 2 tuiles. Make 3 more napoleons in same manner. Drizzle sauce around napoleons and garnish with tomato, chives, and curry powder.

Tips:

  • Use good quality mayonnaise: The mayonnaise is the base of the aioli, so it's important to use a good quality one that you enjoy the taste of. You can also make your own mayonnaise if you prefer.
  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a much more pungent and flavorful taste than garlic powder, so it's best to use it whenever possible.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors: There are many different ways to flavor aioli, so don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients to find a combination that you like. Some popular additions include lemon juice, herbs, and spices.
  • Aioli can be used as a dipping sauce, spread, or marinade: Aioli is a versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of ways. It's great for dipping seafood, spreading on sandwiches, or marinating chicken or fish.
  • Aioli should be served immediately: Aioli is best served immediately after it's made, as it can lose its flavor if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Aioli is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of ways. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a new sauce to try, give aioli a try. You won't be disappointed!
