EASY CREAMY CRAB AND ASPARAGUS SOUP
Creamy soup with crab, potatoes, and asparagus. I made this on a whim one Sunday when crabmeat was on sale at the store. It comes together quickly and is very tasty! You could easily replace the asparagus with another vegetable with equally good results.

POTATO GALETTE
A staple of the French countryside, potato galette is an ideal accompaniment to roasted chicken or beef tenderloin. Be sure to use clarified butter, which will not burn as quickly as regular butter during the galette's long cooking time.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Heat clarified butter in a 10 1/2-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat until very hot, but not smoking. Place a sprig of thyme in center of skillet. Arrange potatoes in an overlapping spiral to fill pan (be careful, because the fat may spatter). Season with salt and pepper. Brush the bottom of a medium saute pan with clarified butter, and place over potatoes to weigh them down. Cook until golden brown, about 8 minutes.
- Carefully pour off excess butter, if there is any, and reserve. Turn galette out onto a baking sheet. Place another sprig of thyme in center of skillet. Using two spatulas, carefully return galette to skillet, browned side up. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with saute pan; transfer to oven, and bake until second side is brown and potatoes are cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes more. Remove top saute pan 5 minutes before removing skillet from oven. Carefully slide galette onto cutting board. Cut into wedges, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- 1. In a pot with a spoon full of salt, and 1/2 tsp liquid crab boil, cook the potatoes until done. Let cool enough to handle and peel then chop into 3/4" to 1" pieces.
- 2. Put potatoes, mushrooms, green onions into a deep baking pan and sprinkle with Creole seasoning. Set aside.
- 3. In a medium bowl add cream cheese, sour cream, shrimp soup, cheddar cheese and mix until well blended. Set aside.
- 4. In a large and deep skillet, or Dutch oven melt together the butter and olive oil over high heat.
- 5. A handful at a time, begin dropping in the shrimp - don't over crowd the pan. Stir and saute them only until they turn pink - *DON'T let them render out their juices.
- 6. As soon as they loose their gray color, take a strainer spoon and remove them temporarily to a bowl and set aside. Continue until all shrimp are done.
- 7. Reduce heat to medium and add the onions, celery, carrots, bell pepper and sausage (broken into small pieces). Once vegetables start to soften add garlic and saute until vegetables are soft and thoroughly wilted. When sausage is cooked, spoon out some of the rendered grease and discard.
- 8. Reduce heat to medium low and add the shrimp to the vegetables and mix well. Begin folding in the cream cheese mixture along with enough half & half to keep the mixture fairly liquid. Taste and add salt & white pepper to taste. The potatoes will absorb the liquid while baking.
- 9. Pour this mixture over the potatoes in the baking pan, and gently work it into the potato & mushrooms until blended.
- 10. Evenly layer the lump crabmeat over the potato mixture and gently press it down into the mixture, being careful not to break up the lumps.
- 11. Spread the Parmesan or Gouda over the mixture then sprinkle the crushed potato chips over the cheese.
- 12. Bake at 350* F, on middle rack, until the sides are hot and bubbly and the cheese is light brown and crusty, 45 minutes. Garnish with fresh minced parsley. Ahhhhh, C'est ci bon!

Add wine to the pan and let simmer until reduced by half. Strain. Add veal stock and cherries; simmer until reduced to 1 quart. Puree and strain. Check for seasoning.
- To make Tenderloin: Rub garlic, olive oil and thyme over fillet of beef and let sit, refrigerated for 4 hours to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Add the flour to the crushed peppercorns. Season the tenderloin liberally with salt and coat well with peppercorn mixture. Place a large saute pan over high heat and add oil. Once the oil starts to smoke add the tenderloin and sear until dark brown on all sides. Place in a 400 degrees F oven until center of fillet reaches 130 degrees F. Let rest for 20 minutes and slice.
- To make Asparagus: Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus and cut each one so they are all the same length. Next saute the asparagus in 1 tablespoon butter and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- To make Potato Galette: Wash potatoes and slice into 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick circles. On greased pans, shingle potato circles to form a galette (1 potato per galette). Brush each galette with butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Put another pan on top of galettes and bake for about 25 minutes.

SPICY BOILED CRABS, SHRIMP, POTATOES, CORN, AND GARLIC
Steps:
- In a 7- to 8-gallon kettle bring 5 gallons water to a boil.
- While water is coming to a boil, in a deep sink rinse crabs in 2 or 3 changes of water. (Do not fill sink too full or crabs may crawl out.)
- Add Zatarain's crab boil or 5 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning, cayenne, salt, lemons, and onions to boiling water and boil 5 minutes. Add potatoes and garlic and boil until tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer potatoes and garlic with a large sieve to a large platter and keep warm, covered with foil. Add corn to boiling water and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer corn with tongs to platter and keep warm, covered with foil.
- Return water to a boil. Transfer about 6 crabs carefully with long tongs to sieve, holding them down in sieve with tongs, and turn crabs out into boiling water. Add remaining crabs in same manner. Return water to a boil and cook crabs until just cooked through, about 10 minutes. (To determine doneness, remove a claw and crack it with the handle of a dinner knife. Use Knife to extract meat from claw.) Transfer crabs with sieve to another large platter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning.
- Return water to boil and cook shrimp until just cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp with sieve to large platter with crabs and sprinkle with remaining tablespoon Old Bay seasoning.
- Serve crabs, shrimp, and vegetables with horseradish cocktail sauce and French bread.
Tips:
- For the best results, use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
- Grate the potatoes using the large holes of a box grater.
- Squeeze the grated potatoes in a cheesecloth or kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
- Don't overmix the potato mixture, or the galettes will be tough.
- Use a large skillet or griddle to cook the galettes so that they have plenty of room to spread out.
- Cook the galettes over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
- Serve the galettes immediately with your favorite toppings.
