Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 18 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/2 cups cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 large egg
8 ounces jumbo lump crab
3 scallions, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced (reserve the dark green parts for the dip)
Canola oil, for frying
Sea salt, for sprinkling
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Reserved dark green parts of 3 scallions, chopped
1/2 jalapeno, seeds and membrane removed, chopped

Steps:

  • For the crab hush puppies: In a medium bowl, whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, kosher salt, sugar and garlic powder. In a separate small bowl, whisk the buttermilk and egg. Make a well in the dry ingredients and begin to gently stir in the buttermilk mixture (I use a wooden spoon). Do not overmix. Gently stir in the crab and scallions until just mixed.
  • For the cilantro-jalapeno dip: Combine the cilantro, mayonnaise, garlic powder, sea salt, pepper, reserved scallion greens and jalapeno in a blender and blend until pureed. Refrigerate until serving time. This can be made a day in advance.
  • Heat several inches of canola oil in a Dutch oven to 350 degrees F. (There should be enough oil for the hush puppies to be completely submerged.) Use a 1-inch ice cream scoop to drop the batter into the hot oil in batches. Fry until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. While the hush puppies are hot, sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Serve immediately with the dip.

HOT JALAPEÑO CRAB DIP



HOT JALAPEÑO CRAB DIP image

Categories     Shellfish

Yield 8 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Dip:
1 pound lump crabmeat
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped pickled jalapeños
1/4 pound Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeños, grated
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated
Toasted Croutons:
1 loaf French bread (about 8 inches in diameter and 15 inches long), ends trimmed and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices
5 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • DIP: Preheat the oven to 350 F. Combine the crabmeat, garlic, jalapeños, Monterey Jack, worcestershire, hot sauce, salt and mayonnaise in a medium-size mixing bowl. Toss gently to mix. Spoon the mixture into a medium-size oven proof bowl. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly on the top of the crabmeat mixture. Bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for about 5 minutes before serving with the croutons. CROUTONS: Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the bread slices on the baking sheet and brush them with half of the olive oil, then sprinkle them with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the black pepper. Turn the slices over, and brush them with the remaining oil, and sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper. Bake for about 6 minutes, then turn the baking sheet around in the oven to ensure even browning. Bake until the croutons are lightly browned, about 6 more minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality crab meat. Fresh or frozen crab meat works well, but avoid using canned crab meat, as it can be too salty and have an off-putting texture.
  • Don't overcook the crab. Crab meat cooks quickly, so it's important to be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar cheese or a creamy Gruyère cheese will both work well in this dip.
  • Add some spice. A little bit of cayenne pepper or chili powder will give this dip a nice kick. If you like things really spicy, you can also add some chopped jalapeños.
  • Serve the dip warm. This dip is best served warm, so make sure to reheat it before serving if you're making it ahead of time.

Conclusion:

This jalapeño crab dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. It's creamy, cheesy, and has just the right amount of spice. Plus, it's a great way to use up any leftover crab meat you might have. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy appetizer, give this jalapeño crab dip a try.
