HOT BUTTERED RUM

This warm and toasty cocktail might stir up memories of cozy winter nights gone by-when the smell of fresh-baked gingerbread filled the air and the twinkling tree lit up the room. And really, it's no wonder why, hot buttered rum is practically Christmas in a cup! With the combination of butter, brown sugar, whipping cream, powdered sugar, cinnamon and cloves-it's as decadent as any holiday dessert. But much simpler, even if it does call for making a batter, which incidentally is the key to this rich and creamy recipe. With a well-seasoned batter mixed up, all that's left is pouring it into your prettiest serving glasses or mugs and mixing in a bit of boiling water. For an impressive finish, top each glass with a grate of fresh nutmeg. Oh, did we mention, this recipe yields 24 serving and can be prepped ahead? That makes it the perfect party drink, don't you think?

Tips:

  • Choose the right crab: Look for crabs that are heavy for their size and have bright, bulging eyes.
  • Clean the crab properly: Remove the top shell of the crab and discard the gills and entrails. Rinse the crab thoroughly under cold water.
  • Cook the crab in a steamer: Steaming is the best way to cook crab because it preserves the delicate flavor of the meat. Place the crab in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water and steam for 10-12 minutes, or until the crab is cooked through.
  • Make the hot butter sauce: While the crab is cooking, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, shallots, and parsley and cook until softened. Stir in white wine and lemon juice and bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the crab with the hot butter sauce: Once the crab is cooked, remove it from the steamer and place it on a serving platter. Pour the hot butter sauce over the crab and serve immediately.

Conclusion:

Hot buttered crab is a delicious and easy-to-make seafood dish that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a meal that is sure to impress your friends and family.
