LOUIE DRESSING (FOR SEAFOOD SALADS OR REUBEN SANDWICHES)



Louie Dressing (For Seafood Salads or Reuben Sandwiches) image

One of my favorite memories of going to a restaurant when I was growing up was getting to order a Shrimp Louie or Crab Louie from someplace like the Reuben E. Lee. It wasn't until later in life that I discovered the joy of a well-crafted Reuben sandwich (no relation to the restaurant mentioned earlier), which later in life became one of our highest-rated sandwiches in our deli. This Louie dressing will make either of these better than simple Thousand Island or Russian.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh and flavorful ingredients for the best results. Look for sweet, succulent king crab meat, ripe tomatoes, and crisp lettuce.
  • Prepare the dressing in advance: The dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This will save you time when assembling the sandwiches.
  • Toast the bread: Toasting the bread will help it hold up better to the dressing and crab meat. You can toast the bread in a toaster oven or on a grill pan.
  • Layer the ingredients carefully: When assembling the sandwiches, layer the ingredients carefully so that each bite is full of flavor. Start with a layer of lettuce, then add the crab meat, tomato, bacon, and cheese. Drizzle with dressing and top with another slice of bread.
  • Serve immediately: King crab Louie sandwiches are best served immediately after they are assembled. This will prevent the bread from getting soggy.

Conclusion:

King crab Louie sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make seafood sandwich that is perfect for any occasion. With their sweet and succulent crab meat, creamy avocado, crispy bacon, and tangy dressing, these sandwiches are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
