Steps:
- Make the dressing: Heat the cream to just under a boil, using a small pan over medium heat. Take off the heat. In a small stainless steel, Pyrex or ceramic mixing bowl, beat together the egg yolks, vinegar and lemon juice with a wire whisk. Whisk in the Dijon mustard, dry mustard, salt, cayenne and black pepper.
- Place the mixing bowl in a pan of simmering water (or use a double boiler). Whisking constantly, add the hot cream in a slow stream. Continue to whisk, taking care not to let the mixture curdle, until the sauce looks like a thick milkshake, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove the sauce from the heat and whisk in the olive oil. Transfer to a chilled container and refrigerate. The dressing will thicken a bit more when cold. Can be made a day in advance. Makes about 1 cup.
- To make the salad, put the chicories or salad greens and celery in a large salad bowl. Sprinkle with a little salt and dress with about 2 tablespoons of the dressing. Mix the remaining dressing with the crab meat, folding gently to incorporate. To serve, put dressed salad greens on individual plates and top with a large spoonful of crab meat. Garnish with chives and thin slices of Meyer lemon if desired.
