Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers     Finger Food Recipes

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 orange bell pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 baguette or ficelle, cut into 1/4-inch-thick pieces
1/4 pound jumbo lump crabmeat, picked clean
1/2 celery stalk, strings removed, cut into 1/8-inch-thick slices
1/2 small carrot, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch-long matchsticks
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh marjoram leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat a grill to hot, or turn on the broiler. Cook bell pepper until it is completely charred, turning so all sides cook evenly, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer warm pepper to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside until cool.
  • Using your hands, rub off charred skin. Slice pepper in half, and remove seeds and stem. Cut pepper into diamond shapes that are slightly larger than a piece of baguette.
  • Using a wooden spoon, mix together butter and two mustards in a small bowl until well combined. Spread a generous dollop of mustard butter on each slice of bread.
  • Place remaining ingredients except marjoram in a medium bowl, and toss to combine. Place a pepper diamond on each piece of bread, and top with a mound of crab salad. Garnish each canape with several marjoram leaves, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lobster meat. Fresh lobster meat has a sweeter flavor and a more tender texture than frozen lobster meat.
  • Cook the lobster meat properly. Overcooked lobster meat will be tough and chewy. Lobster meat is cooked when it is opaque and firm to the touch.
  • Choose the right bread. The bread you use for your lobster salad canapés should be sturdy enough to hold the filling, but not so thick that it overpowers the flavor of the lobster.
  • Make the lobster salad ahead of time. Lobster salad can be made up to 24 hours in advance. This will give the flavors time to meld.
  • Garnish the canapés with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as chives, dill, or parsley, will add a pop of color and flavor to your canapés.

Conclusion:

Lobster salad canapés are a delicious and elegant appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning, you can create a beautiful and delicious spread of lobster salad canapés that will impress your guests.
