Categories     Appetizer

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (10-ounce) whole-wheat baguette (cut into 24 (1/4-inch-thick) slices)
1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley (divided)
1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest ((1 small lemon will be plenty for both the zest and juice))
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice ((1 small lemon will be plenty for both the zest and juice))
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 ounces gruyere cheese (shredded, about 1/2 cup (fontina or gouda would be great too!))
1 ounce Parmesan cheese (finely grated, about 1/4 cup)
1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts (drained, patted dry, and roughly chopped)
1 (4-ounce) can lump crab meat (drained)

Steps:

  • Place the oven rack in the upper third of the oven. Turn on the broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cut the baguette into 1/4-inch slices (you should have about 24 total). Arrange in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Stir in the gruyere and Parmesan, then gently fold in the artichokes and crab. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
  • Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon of the artichoke-crab mixture onto each baguette slice. Broil until the cheese begins to melt, about 3 minutes. Watch very carefully the entire time so that the toasts do not burn. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon fresh parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Time 50m

Yield 48 toasts

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound lump Dungeness crabmeat, picked over for cartilage
1/2 cup high quality mayonnaise
2 teaspoons wasabi paste
2 Pink Lady apples, cored, finely diced, divided
2 fennel bulbs, 1 finely diced, 1 sliced as thinly as possible, green fronds included
1 bunch Easter radishes, sliced as thinly as possible
2 Meyer lemons, zested and juiced
Kosher salt
2 loaves brioche bread
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the crab, mayonnaise, wasabi, 3/4 of the chopped apples, all of the fennel (including green tops), the radishes, juice and zest of 1 Meyer lemon, and salt, to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining chopped apples with remaining lemon juice and zest. Season with salt, to taste, and set aside for garnish.

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.

CRAB CAKES WITH DILL MAYONNAISE



Crab cakes with dill mayonnaise image

Little fish favourites, perfect for dipping at parties or as a smart starter

Provided by James Martin

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Supper

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

250g potatoes , diced
300g white crabmeat
1 tbsp capers , drained and finely chopped
2 spring onions , finely chopped
zest and juice 1 lemon , plus extra wedges to serve
small bunch dill , finely chopped
4 tbsp good-quality mayonnaise
2 tbsp plain flour
1 egg , lightly beaten
85g dried breadcrumbs
sunflower oil , for shallow frying

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes in a large pan of salted water for about 15 mins, drain, then return to the pan and leave to steam dry for about 5 mins. Mash, then leave to cool.
  • In a large bowl mix the crabmeat, capers, spring onions, lemon zest and half the juice with half the dill. Stir in the mashed potato with some seasoning, then shape into 12 neat round patties. Transfer these to a plate and put in the fridge for 20 mins to firm up.
  • To make the dill mayonnaise, mix the mayo with the remaining lemon juice and dill. Put this in the fridge for later.
  • Put the flour, egg and breadcrumbs on 3 separate plates. Dust the crab cakes all over with the flour, then dip into the egg and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
  • Add enough sunflower oil to a shallow frying pan to come about 1cm up the side. Heat the oil, then carefully slide the crab cakes in; you might have to do this in batches. Cook for about 3 mins on each side until they are crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper. At this point you can pop the crab cakes into the oven to keep warm - or serve right away with dill mayonnaise and extra lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality mayonnaise. This will also make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. Dill is a classic pairing for crab, but you could also try using tarragon, parsley, or chives.
  • Serve the crab salad on top of toasted bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the delicious juices.

Conclusion:

Crab with Dill on Cayenne Toasts is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or light meal. It is perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a formal dinner party. With its fresh, flavorful ingredients and elegant presentation, this dish is sure to impress your guests.
