1 cup champagne vinegar
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
3 baby candy striped beets, thinly sliced
3 red beets, thinly sliced
3 baby yellow beets, thinly sliced
1 pound jumbo lump crabmeat
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons Creole mustard
2 tablespoons seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay
1 tablespoon finely diced red bell peppers
1 tablespoon finely diced yellow bell peppers
1 tablespoon chopped scallions
1 tablespoon finely diced Scotch bonnet peppers
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 egg
2 teaspoons salt
6 large organic eggs
About 6 cups canola or vegetable oil, for frying
1 cup milk
2 eggs
4 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 cups cornstarch
1 cup fresh parsley leaves, for serving
1 cup thinly sliced kale leaves, for serving
Olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • For the pickled beets: In a medium saucepot, bring the sugar, vinegar, fennel seeds and 1 cup water to a boil. Place the sliced beets in a heatproof bowl. Pour the boiling liquid over the beets and let sit for 20 minutes.

THE COACH HOUSE'S DEVILED-CRAB CAKES



The Coach House's Deviled-Crab Cakes image

In 1983, Craig Claiborne wrote of his lifelong passion for crab cakes. "I have found that the dish has almost as many versions as clam chowder and fried chicken," Mr. Claiborne said. These deviled-crab cakes are from the Coach House, at 110 Waverly Place in Greenwich Village, a space now occupied by Babbo. The crab cakes are made with fresh lump crab meat, and the recipe yields a spicy cake that is "admirably moist in the center and crisp on the exterior."

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h50m

Yield 10 servings as first course, 5 as main course

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 pound fresh crab meat, preferably lump
5 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
2 1/2 tablespoons plus 2 cups fresh bread crumbs made from 2-day-old bread
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
Salt to taste if desired
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 egg yolk
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 cup flour
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup milk
Green sauce (see recipe), optional

Steps:

  • Pick over crab meat, removing all shell and cartilage. Leave in largest pieces possible. If pasteurized meat is used, drain all liquid that has accumulated. Put crab meat in mixing bowl.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in saucepan and add onion and celery. Cook, stirring often, until wilted. Let cool. Add onion mixture to crab. Add 2 1/2 tablesooons of bread crumbs, chopped parsley, salt and pepper. Blend egg yolk with mustard and cream and add it. Add Worcestershire sauce, mayonnaise, Tabasco sauce and lemon juice.
  • Blend mixture gently, taking care to avoid breaking up crab lumps. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until quite cold. If mixture is not cold, it will not shape properly.
  • Put flour in flat-rimmed dish. Put lightly beaten egg with milk in another dish and remaining bread crumbs in a third.
  • Shape mixture into 10 balls of equal size, pressing to make mixture adhere. Dip balls in flour, then in egg mixture and then in crumbs. Crab mixture is extremely delicate and must be handled with care to prevent its falling apart. As crab cakes are made, pat to flatten with great care, using spatula and fingers. Transfer carefully to dish and return to refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat remaining 3 tablespoons butter in skillet and cook crab cakes, handling cautiously, about 5 minutes on a side until nicely browned and piping hot. Serve, if desired, with green sauce on side.

Give your brunch game an update with crab cake eggs Benedict. They're easy to assemble, yet sure to impress your guests. We like to use an immersion blender to make fool-proof hollandaise, but if you don't have one, try using an upright blender instead.

Provided by Matt Ciampa

Categories     Breakfast

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 tablespoons shallot, minced
½ teaspoon dried parsley
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
1 large egg yolk
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 pinch black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper, plus more for garnish, optional
2 cans crab meat, drained and picked for shells
¾ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup all purpose flour, for dusting
¼ cup canola oil
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 large egg yolk
2 teaspoons lemon juice
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick unsalted butter, melted

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the canola oil, then fry the crab cakes until golden and crisp, 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Poach the eggs: Bring a large pot of water to a simmer over medium heat. Add the vinegar.
  • Crack 1 egg into a small bowl. With a spoon, stir the water in a clockwise direction to create a whirlpool. Carefully drop the egg into the center of the whirlpool. Cover the pot and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until egg white is set and yolk is still runny. Remove the egg from the pot with a slotted spoon and transfer to a container of cold water to stop the cooking process. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
  • Make the hollandaise: Add the egg yolk, lemon juice, and salt to a tall glass or container. Use an immersion blender to pulse a few times to blend together. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the melted butter. Continue to blend until the mixture thickens and lightens in color.
  • Top each crab cake with a poached egg and drizzle with the hollandaise sauce. Garnish with cayenne, if desired.
