Dungeness Crab

 

This is how the Crabs looked until I cleaned them.

We used to live in San Francisco and nothing says San Francisco more than Dungeness Crabs. We ordered them already Steamed from Four Star Seafood. They come preserved in a chilled box. All you need to do is remove the shell, clean out the bad parts wash throughly in cold water, crack and serve with melted butter and hot bread. A wonderful meal.

We started with The Hungry Cat salad. It is a favorite of ours. Even though Hungry Cat, the restaurant, has closed - we continue to make their Salad. I like the avocado, egg and lemon juice. It is a great salad. You can read about why it is called The Hungry Cat Salad on our blog post of: November 21, 2009. Click the date to get the recipe.

For desert we made the Baked Apples – from the Sunday Supper at Lucques Cookbook. Wow what a winter treat! It is an easy to make recipe. You can get the recipe from our blog of: January 10, 2007. Click the date to get the recipe.
