Walt my friend, please don't take offense here, I'm just a bit foggy on the brain today....had too much of Juanita's Picante sauce. Let me get this straight. Crab...as in spinldly legged pinching crabs and blue crabs and Alaskan King crab type crabs, right? And, you said tea....as in Earl Gray and such? Crab + tea? Hmmmm never heard of a cobination such as this. Perhaps I'm missing the true meaning in the "true" English english to American english language transfer. Tea as in broth or tea as in the Earl Gray variety? OH! SHEEESH boy am I dense. Ok, sorry Walt. You're going to have the crab as a treat WITH tea. AHA! seeeesh am I slow. George my friend, I can now say we drank too much in college. ;) Ok, here's my suggestion. I LOVE seafood with tabasco peppers and serranos. Well, serranos mostly. I don't know why. If you don't mind that heat level, try the serranos. OH! Speaking of serranos brings something else to mind. Edamame soybeans heated with serranos, onions, yellow bell peppers, grape tomatos, and a splash of olive oil and some basil is wonderful!
