Crab Salad and Bangladesh





We invited Shu over for dinner. We had a can of Crab meat that we had purchased from McCall’s Meat and Fish. Previously the crab was from Indonesia. They now are canning good old American Blue Crab. We decided to make a Crab Louie.

We knew immediately that we would be using Mark Peel’s recipe for Russian Dressing from his cookbook: New Classic Family Dinners. It is the best Russian Dressing! You can find the recipe on our blog of: July 4, 2010. Click the date to get the recipe. The way that we assembled the salad was also from a Mark Peel recipe in the same cookbook: Shrimp Louie replacing the shrimp with crab. You can find the recipe in our blog of: August 19, 2010. Click the date to get the recipe. Thank you Mark!

Shu had discovered a new Bangeldeshi Restaurant: Meghna Restaurant on 3rd Street and Hobart Ave. and he wanted to bring us a first course. The dish is called Parata, we had never had it before. It was delicious.
