Walter, I saw Tyler Florence on TV Food Network today helping a woman overcome her fear of cooking live crabs. They made the most wonderful looking chinese crab dish. Go to http://www.foodtv.com Under the names of the shows, go to Food 911. Then scroll down and they should have the last week or so of recipes. One of them should have crab recipes. They stir-fried some ginger, garlic and chile peppers and made a sauce that they put over the crabs. Used the shell of the crab to decorate the plate afterwards. Sprinkled on peanuts, and scallions, to garnish. Looked really yummy. Good luck with your crabs. ===== RisaG Risa's Food Service http://www.geocities.com/radiorlg Updated 5/02/03 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier.
