Thanks, but it's not the same recipe. He's checked there before. The original had dry mustard in it and something else, I can't remember.

You gotta know that idjit left work and never did tell me which recipe he wanted me to use. I have half a mind to mix the crab with some ketchup and serve it to him that way (reserving the good stuff for my self, of course.:biggrin:)

Crab Imperial

1 egg
1 tbs. lemon juice
2 tbs. chopped green pepper
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 cups fresh crab meat
2 slices white bread
1/8 tsp. dry mustard
1 tbs.capers drained
1/4 cup grated Chedar cheese
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce

Place egg, mayonnaise, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice in a mixing bowl and mix thoroughly. Drain and pick crab meat to ensure all crab shells are out. Add crab, capers and green pepper to the egg-mayonnaise mixture and toss gently with two forks. Cut bread into 1/2 to 3/4 inch squares and broil for 30 to 60 seconds or until lightly brown. At this point preheat oven to 400 degrees. Add bread to crab meat mixture and toss gently. Arrange mixture onto 4 large Scallop bowls or equivalent. Place on the center of the rack in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Sprinkle graded cheese over the mixture and bake for five more minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and garnish with lemon wedges.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


1/4 cup finely minced onion
1/4 cup finely minced green bell pepper
1 teaspoon butter or vegetable oil
Pinch kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
1/2 to 3/4 cup fresh bread crumbs
2 tablespoons drained capers
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seafood Seasoning
1/4 teaspoon Coleman's dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
1/2 cup mayonnaise -- divided
1 pound jumbo lump blue crab meat
2 tablespoons melted butter
In a small skillet over medium-low heat, saute onion and green pepper in the 1 teaspoon butter 2-3 minutes until just soft. Sprinkle with a dash of salt and pepper, until soft; remove from heat and set aside to cool.
In a medium bowl, combine bread crumbs, reserved onion mixture, capers, Old Bay and dry mustard. In a small bowl, combine the Worcestershire sauce, egg and 1/3 cup of the mayonnaise.
Working next to the bowls and using your fingers, carefully pick over the crabmeat, discarding any small pieces of shell and cartilage (there shouldn't be much for high-quality crab meat), and dropping the picked-over pieces into the crumb-onion mixture. Try not to break up the lumps of crab meat.
Pour egg mixture into the crab mixture Using a large fork, gently toss the crabmeat mixture so as not to break up the lumps of crabmeat. Spray 4 ovenproof seafood shell dishes or ramekins with cooking spray (preferably butter-flavored). Heap crabmeat mixture into the shells; cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Sprinkle bread crumbs evenly over the crab imperial and drizzle with melted butter (or top with dots of remaining mayonnaise). Place dishes or ramekins of crab imperial onto a shallow baking pan; bake on the center shelf 10-12 miniutes or until crabmeat is lightly brown on top and bubbly. Serve immediately.

I know of a pretty good recipie USING crab imperial. Used to make it when I was a chef at Solomons Pier. Its called the fishermans paradise, ( I dont know if i should be tellin this but oh well) You take 2 decent sized flounder fillets (or whatever kind of fish you want, just flounder work and tastes good) lay one flat on a baking sheet (or whatever you want to broil it on...Make a cut in the other fillet running about 1/2 the length of the fillet in the middle of it all the way through the fillet. Put a nice sized scoop of Imperial on the bottom piece, and cover with the fillet with the cut in it and kinda push the Imperial up through the cut, then broil till the fish ic cooked and enjoy it, it can also be drizzilied in a cream of crab soup to keep the imperial from drying out. Sorry its kind of a vauge recipie, but its more or less done by sight, not portion. And if you dont know at what temp to cook fish at, then you shouldnt be living so close to the water. Later -Mike
I had no idea you had been posting for so many years! :faint:
