This is my first recipe post to the newsgroup, so I thought that I would start
out with my absolutely favorite recipe in the world. Lump Blue Crab Souffle:
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound lump blue crab meat
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup light cream
3 eggs -- lightly beaten
1 dash tobasco sauce
salt -- to taste
pepper -- to taste
garlic salt -- to taste
Mix well all the ingredients together and place in a 1 1/2 quart covered
casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes or until the souffle has
risen and the top nicely browned.
For a variation, you can add 2 ounces of chopped pimento or 3 ounces of chopped
mushrooms. Even some diced onion if you will. BUT....for pure perfection, use
lump crab meat and nothing else.
NOTE : Blue Crab, either freshly steamed or canned is best for this recepie.
You can use other canned crab with good results, but the texture and taste will
be somewhat dissapointing
