CORNMEAL-CRUSTED SOFT-SHELLED CRABS WITH CILANTRO-LIME TARTAR SAUCE
Steps:
- Whisk together buttermilk, eggs, salt, and pepper and pour into a 3-quart shallow dish. Add crabs and soak, covered and chilled, 1 hour.
- Heat enough oil to measure 2 inches deep in a wide 4-quart heavy pot (about 4 inches deep) to 375°F.
- Whisk together flour and cornmeal and transfer to a large sealable plastic bag. Lift 1 crab out of buttermilk, letting excess drip off, and shake in bag to coat with flour. Knock off excess flour and transfer to a tray. Repeat with remaining crabs, arranging them in 1 layer as coated.
- Deep-fry crabs, 2 at a time, turning over halfway through frying (watch out for popping), until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Return oil to 375°F between batches. Drain crabs on paper towels and serve with tartar sauce.
CRAB AND CORNMEAL STEW
Steps:
- In a medium heavy skillet, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the onions and bell peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until softened. Add the garlic, cumin, and paprika and cook for 2 minutes more, until the aroma is released. Add the tomatoes, pimentos, bay leaf, vinegar, Tabasco, sherry, clam juice and salt to the pan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until thickened and saucy. Add the crab meat and cook for another 6 minutes, then remove from the heat and taste for seasoning. Cover and set aside at the back of the stove while you cook the cornmeal. In a large heavy saucepan, combine the cornmeal, water, oil, and salt. Mix together well and place the pan over medium high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover the pan. Cook for 25 to 30 minutes over very low heat, removing the lid to thoroughly stir the mixture every 2 or 3 minutes. When the cornmeal has thickened, season it generously with pepper. Remove the bay leaf from the sauce and gently reheat it if necessary. Ladle the cornmeal into shallow heated bowls and top with a generous ladleful of the crab sauce. Or if desired, mix the two together thoroughly before serving.
