Title: Crab Louis Seattle Categories: Seafood Yield: 4 Servings ----------------------------CRAB LOUIS DRESSING---------------------------- 1 c Mayonnaise 1/4 c Chili sauce (catsup style) 1/4 c Whipping cream or -Half-&-Half 1 1/2 tb Minced green bell pepper 3 tb Minced yellow onion 1 Egg; hard boiled and grated 1 ts Worcestershire sauce 2 ts Chopped fresh parsley 1 tb Fresh lemon juice Salt & pepper to taste ---------------------------------THE SALAD--------------------------------- Iceberg lettuce (whole -leaves and shredded too); -sliced hard-boiled eggs; -pitted black olives; green -sweet bell pepper rings; -crabmeat, legs included; -and the dressing) I cannot think of anything that is more typical of a fine lunch in Seattle than a Crab Louis. This is a grand salad, and a properly prepared one is laden with fresh Dungeness crabmeat. You can use other kinds of crabmeat, of course, but I want to stick to my Dungeness. Mix all of the above together and chill. Arrange a whole leaf of lettuce on each plate. Use a leaf that is large enough to form a sort of bowl. Put a handful of shredded lettuce in each bowl and then a good serving of crabmeat. Top with sliced eggs, olives, and pepper rings. Pass the Louis dressing and allow your guests to add a bit to their salads. From Archive, http://www.erols.com/hosey. |
