From Elle Dècor Magazine. Prepared crabmeat is expensive here so occasionally we will substitute less expensive scallops for some of the crab. This recipe really depends on the freshest ingredients for best results! Note: If cornichons are not available, substitute kosher dill pickles or green olives.
