CRAB LINGUINE
My husband loves this dish and can prepare this one himself! Got it out of an ad for Louis Kemp Seafood products. We have used imitation lobster and crab. I bet it would be awesome with shrimp.

Steps:
- Preheat your broiler in the oven.
- Grab about 1.5 -2 slices of stale Texas toast.
- Remove the crust and add it to a food processor. Buzz the bread until the breadcrumbs are small, no large pieces.
- Add the breadcrumbs to a baking tray, and toss them with the parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Broil for 4-5 minutes making sure to toss the breadcrumbs every 1-2 minutes to prevent burning.
- Once the breadcrumbs are golden brown, set them aside.
- Boil a pot of water and cook the pasta according to the package. Al dente preferred as the pasta will continue to cook in the sauce.
- Reserve a ½ cup pasta water.
- Drain the remaining water using a colander. Drizzle the pasta with olive oil and set it aside.
- In a 3.5-quart sauteuse pan over medium heat add the butter, minced garlic, and shallots.
- Once the shallots and garlic are fragrant and translucent, deglaze the pan with the white wine.
- Next, add the lemon juice, fresh parsley, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir well.
- Then, you will reduce the heat to low and add 8 ounces of the jumbo lump crab meat with the juice. Gently toss everything together, trying not to break the jumbo crab meat up too much.
- Add about ¼ cup of the pasta water. I used a little more than a ¼ cup.
- Next, you will add the cooked linguini into the pan with the sauce and crab meat. Gently toss everything together.
- Top with the tossed breadcrumbs and some extra fresh chopped parsley.
- Serve with lemon wedges and enjoy!

LINGUINE WITH CRAB MEAT
At All'onda in Greenwich Village, the chef Chris Jaeckle channels Venice by way of Japan. This pasta dish, which I enjoyed in his restaurant a few weeks ago, sums it up. Fresh pasta with crab meat and a smidgen of tomato is brightened with yuzu, lemon's racy Japanese cousin. I remembered the dish as I savored the food-friendly, energetic white Bordeaux. The good acidity and citric notes of these wines welcome seafood. Though Mr. Jaeckle's version calls for peekytoe crab, it is all but impossible to find in most retail fish markets, so he allowed for regular lump crab meat. As for the yuzu juice, it's sold in Japanese markets. Look for a refrigerated brand that has no preservatives. You'll have plenty left over, enough to test your cocktail-making chops before dinner.

Steps:
- Combine jalapeño, lemon zest and yuzu juice in a small dish and set aside. Heat half the oil in a large sauté pan. Add the onion and cook on medium-high until it starts to caramelize. Remove it. Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook until they start to brown. Return the onions to the pan, add the tomatoes and cook until they start to dry out. Pulse the mixture in a food processor until very finely chopped. Add the jalapeño mixture and season to taste with salt and togarashi. The mixture should have a touch of heat.
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Heat the remaining oil in the sauté pan on low. Add the garlic, cook until it softens, then add the wine. Increase heat to medium high and reduce until the wine films the pan. Add the stock and the tomato mixture. Stir, then add the crab.
- Cook the pasta until it is al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain and add it to the sauté pan. Add the butter. Use tongs to toss all the ingredients together. Divide among 4 warm plates, scatter tarragon on each and serve.

CRAB LINGUINE WITH CHILLI & PARSLEY
Keep it simple with this restaurant-style dish that takes a few good-quality ingredients and lets them shine

Steps:
- Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and add the linguine. Give it a good stir and boil for 1 min less than the pack says. Stir well occasionally so it doesn't stick.
- While the pasta cooks, gently heat 3 tbsp of olive oil with the chilli and garlic in a pan large enough to hold all the pasta comfortably. Cook the chilli and garlic very gently until they start to sizzle, then turn up the heat and add the white wine. Simmer everything until the wine and olive oil come together. Then take off the heat and add the brown crabmeat, using a wooden spatula or spoon to mash it into the olive oil to make a thick sauce.
- When the pasta has had its cooking time, taste a strand - it should have a very slight bite. When it's ready, turn off the heat. Place the sauce on a very low heat and use a pair of kitchen tongs to lift the pasta from the water into the sauce.
- Off the heat, add the white crabmeat and parsley to the pasta with a sprinkling of sea salt. Stir everything together really well, adding a drop of pasta water if it's starting to get claggy. Taste for seasoning and, if it needs a slight lift, add a small squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately twirled into pasta bowls and drizzled with the remaining oil.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Crab Meat: Opt for fresh or frozen crab meat for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen crab meat, thaw it properly in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water.
- Cook the Crab Meat Gently: Avoid overcooking the crab meat as it can become tough and rubbery. Cook it briefly over medium heat until it is heated through.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the crab meat, do not overcrowd the pan as it can cause the crab meat to steam rather than sauté.
- Use Fresh Herbs and Spices: Fresh herbs like parsley, basil, and thyme add a burst of flavor to the dish. Use a variety of spices like garlic, paprika, and chili flakes to enhance the taste.
- Don't Forget the Acid: A squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of white wine adds a touch of acidity that brightens up the dish and balances the flavors.
- Cook the Pasta Al Dente: Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, but aim for al dente (slightly firm to the bite) to ensure the best texture.
- Reserve Some Pasta Water: Set aside some pasta water before draining the pasta. This starchy water can be added to the sauce to create a creamy and flavorful consistency.
- Toss Everything Together: Combine the cooked pasta, crab meat, sauce, and any additional ingredients in a large bowl or pan. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
