Steps:
- For the popovers: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 6-count popover pan, six 1 cup ceramic souffle dishes, glass custard cups, or muffin cups with vegetable oil cooking spray.
- In a blender, combine the milk, flour, butter, sugar, salt, ginger and eggs and blend until smooth. Scrape down the sides and blend until the batter is very smooth. Divide the batter equally among the prepared dishes, about 1/3 cup each.
- Bake the popovers without opening the oven door, until puffed and deep brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
- For the salad: While the popovers bake, in a large bowl, combine the orange and lime zest, orange and lime juices, creme fraiche, salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in the oil. Add the crabmeat, radicchio, onions, avocado and mango. Toss until combined.
- When the popovers are baked through, remove the popovers from the oven. Twist each out of its dish and cool on a wire rack.
- Place the popovers on a platter. Using a serrated knife, remove the tops of the popovers. Using a large spoon, fill each popover with the salad, mounding in the center. Serve immediately.

AVOCADO STUFFED WITH CRABMEAT MAISON, OR COLD CRAB SALAD
I made this recently when our supper club decided to brunch instead of supper; everyone loved it. The recipe comes from a cookbook from one of the oldest and most loved New Orleans fine dining restaurants (Galatoire's); it would be perfect for any brunch or luncheon. It calls for iceberg lettuce, which I usually hate, but they insist on using it b/c the dressing works better, so I did. Also, use very good crabmeat. I am not including the dressing recipe in the ingredients/directions b/c it makes more than you need for this salad, but I am writing it out here b/c it is simple and necessary (and you will want to drizzle it on the finished salad): Creole Mustard Vinaigrette 1/3 c red wine vinegar, 1/2 c creole mustard, 2/3 c vegetable oil, salt and pepper to taste, whisk together in small bowl.
