EVERGLADES CITY STONE CRAB

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling water, boil the stone crab claws for 8 minutes. Bring the internal temperature of the claws down to 70 degrees F by immersing them in a pot of 50 degree F water for another 8 minutes. Refrigerate with plenty of ice.
• Crack the claws and serve.

STONE CRAB SALAD

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine all ingredients, using just enough mayonnaise to hold everything together. Place in a serving bowl and chill for at least 30 minutes. Serve with your favorite crackers as an appetizer.

CRAB COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Put the fennel in a large bowl of ice-cold water with a squeeze of lemon juice. Leave for at least 30 mins to crisp up. Drizzle more lemon juice on the avocados to stop them browning. Whisk together all the ingredients for the Marie Rose sauce in a bowl with seasoning. Set aside to chill in the fridge.
• Just before serving, drain the fennel and toss with the remaining lemon juice, dill and some seasoning. Layer the lettuce, avocado, fennel and crab in 4 x half-pint glasses - or tumblers or jam jars. Add a spoonful of sauce to each, then repeat the layers until the glasses are full, finishing with the Marie Rose sauce. Sprinkle a pinch of cayenne pepper over each cocktail and serve with lemon wedges and toast, if you like.

CRAB COCKTAIL

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, sesame oil and wasabi. Peel and mince or grate the ginger into the bowl and add the zest of 1/2 the lime. Squeeze 1/2 teaspoon of lime juice into the bowl and mix everything together.
• Toss the crab in the sauce, and then finely shred the Chinese leaf cabbage.
• Arrange a bed of shredded cabbage on two plates. Divide the crab between them, piling it into the center of each one. Finely chop the scallion and scatter over each plate and then bash some pink peppercorns either in a pestle and mortar - rich in lewd symbolism - or put them in a freezer bag, close it and hit with a rolling pin (more of a comedy moment) and sprinkle these, too, over the crab cocktails.
• Cut the remaining lime half into wedges and put on the side of the plates for extra spritzing.
