COLOSSAL CRAB ASPARAGUS BISQUE



Colossal Crab Asparagus Bisque image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 quarts chicken stock
2 bay leaves
3 pounds asparagus, cut into 1-inch lengths (tough ends removed and discarded)
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
4 white onions, chopped
5 stalks celery, chopped
3 carrots, peeled and chopped
2/3 cup all-purpose flour (approximately, or as needed to create roux)
1 pint heavy cream
1 pound colossal crabmeat
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons freshly chopped thyme leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, juiced plus 1 or 2 lemons cut in wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring stock and bay leaves to a boil in a large pot. Cook asparagus until tender and add to stock pot. Melt butter in a separate saucepan and gently saute onions, celery, and carrots (mirepoix) until tender, then gradually add flour (with a non-reactive utensil such as a wooden spoon), and cook until similar to a roux. Transfer to the pot of stock to thicken soup. Let simmer for 45 minutes. Remove bay leaves from soup. *Blend to a puree with an immersion blender, or in batches in a blender or food processor. Add cream to the soup, and keep warm over low heat.
  • For the crab "souffle," mix crab, mayonnaise, thyme, salt and pepper, and squeeze of fresh lemon juice, trying to avoid breaking up the lumps of crabmeat. Place a scoop of the crabmeat in the center of soup bowl and ladle the asparagus soup around. Garnish with a lemon wedge.
  • *When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium leek, quartered lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/3-inch pieces (white and pale green parts only)
1 lb medium asparagus, trimmed
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/3 cups heavy cream
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh tarragon
2 teaspoons water
1 unbaked pie shell

Steps:

  • Wash leek in a bowl of cold water, agitating water, then lift out leek and pat dry.
  • Cook asparagus in a wide 4- to 5-quart pot of boiling salted water, uncovered, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer asparagus with tongs to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking, then drain and pat dry. Cut off and reserve tips (leave more stalk if asparagus is thin), then thinly slice stalks crosswise.
  • Heat butter in a 10- to 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat until foam subsides, then cook leek with 1/4 teaspoon salt, stirring, until softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in sliced asparagus and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and remove from heat.
  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Whisk together cream, 2 eggs, tarragon, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Lightly beat remaining egg with water in a small bowl and brush pie shell all over with some egg wash. Spoon asparagus mixture into shell, spreading evenly, then pour cream mixture over asparagus.
  • Bake until filling is just beginning to set but still loose on top, 20 to 25 minutes. Scatter asparagus tips over top, pressing lightly if necessary to help them settle into filling, then continue to bake until custard is golden and just set but still slightly wobbly in center, about 30 minutes more (custard will continue to set as it cools).
  • Cool on baking sheet on a rack until warm, about 30 minutes. Loosen edge with a small sharp knife. Serve warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges.

CRAB PIE RECIPE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Crab Pie Recipe Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-46109

Number Of Ingredients 12

2- 9 ″ deep pie crusts (baked 3 minutes and cooled)
1 pound lump crab meat
4 eggs
2 tablespoon flour
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup whole milk
8 ounce shredded Swiss cheese
8 ounce shredded Cheddar cheese
2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped green pepper
(Note: You can use backfin, it is fine. Lump is the most expensive and not necessary.)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF Bake your crust for 3 minutes. We used Pillsbury pie dough and it worked out great. We did spray the pie pans with Pam spray to keep the crust from sticking. Combine eggs, flour, mayonnaise and milk, mix well. Add cheese, 1 teaspoon Old Bay, onion and pepper and mix well. Fold in crab meat and try not to separate the lumps of crab meat too much. Pour into 2 separate pie crusts, sprinkle with additional Old Bay Seasoning. Bake at 350ºF for 50 minutes or until knife comes out clean. (Check at about 40 minutes to avoid burning, since ovens vary.)

CRAB AND ASPARAGUS TART



Crab and Asparagus Tart image

A savory tart, its silky custard thickly studded with crab meat to pick up the sweetness of the wines, and asparagus to tame tropical fruit and citrus flavors with vegetal, mineral notes and a hint of bitterness, will make for a lovely lunch or a predinner snack. Come summer, some diced zucchini can replace the asparagus. It also delivers a kick, not in the filling but in the pastry. There's no heat from the subdued alcohol in the bottle. The cayenne in the crust makes up for it.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups flour, more for rolling
Salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
7 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon minced shallot
1/2 bunch medium asparagus, ends snapped, halved vertically and cut into 1-inch pieces
8 ounces lump crab meat
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced chervil
3/4 cup half-and-half
4 ounces soft goat cheese

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Whisk flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and cayenne in a bowl or blend in a food processor. Add 6 tablespoons of butter and cut in or pulse until size of peas. Beat 1 egg with 2 tablespoons ice water, scatter on flour mixture and mix with a fork or pulse until a dough can be gathered together. Add a little more water if needed. Form into a disk and roll on a lightly floured surface, then lay it into a 9-inch straight-sided tart pan.
  • Trim edges, line with foil and weight with pastry weights or dry beans. Bake 10 minutes, until it starts to look dry. Remove foil and weights and bake 10 to 15 minutes more, until lightly browned. Remove from oven. Reduce heat to 350 degrees.
  • Melt remaining butter in a skillet over medium heat, add shallot and cook 1 minute. Add asparagus and cook about 2 minutes, until they start to soften. Remove from heat. Fold in crab meat, lemon juice and chervil. Season with salt. Spread in pastry.
  • Whisk half-and-half and cheese until smooth. Beat in remaining eggs until well blended. Pour over crab and asparagus, place in oven and bake about 40 minutes, until set and lightly browned. Let cool 15 minutes, remove sides of pan and serve at once or cooled to room temperature.

Tips:

  • For the perfect flaky crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. Butter adds flavor, while shortening helps keep the crust tender.
  • Make sure the butter and shortening are very cold before adding them to the flour mixture. This will help prevent the gluten in the flour from developing, which can make the crust tough.
  • Use ice water to mix the dough. This will help keep the butter and shortening cold and prevent the gluten from developing.
  • Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface. This will help prevent the dough from sticking and tearing.
  • Trim the edges of the dough and fold them under to create a rim. This will help hold the filling in place.
  • Use a fork to prick the bottom of the dough before baking. This will help prevent the dough from puffing up too much.
  • Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes before adding the filling. This will help prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • When adding the filling, make sure it is evenly distributed across the crust.
  • Bake the pie for the amount of time specified in the recipe. Overbaking will make the crust dry and crumbly.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the filling set and prevent it from running out when you cut into it.

Conclusion:

Crab asparagus pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, creamy filling, and succulent crab and asparagus, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dish to serve, give crab asparagus pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
