fake crab rescue
the other day we made a usual stir fry with mixed frozen
vegetables and some of the fake crab. it is pretty bland as far as dishes go as we don't put anything other than a bit of olive oil and butter in with it. i'm ok with being able to taste just the vegetables with the hints of salt, butter and olive oil. in years past we were able to find brands that didn't have any fishy taste to them, but then a few years ago all of the brands we liked that didn't have that off taste to them weren't available any more so we didn't buy it as often. so while the dish was edible it wasn't very enjoyable. this morning i had to do something to it to make it more edible, i put some sour cream, dried basil and then some hot sauce on it, mixed it all together and then i finished it off. the basil and hot sauce did just what they needed to do. what is really funny is that i do just fine eating canned tuna, sardines, salmon and even herring steaks and smoked fish. i also eat fish of other kinds and do ok as long as they're not super strong fishy tasting but for some reason i just don't like this fake crab stuff to smell or taste fishy. i guess i'm spoiled. songbird |

I guess that's whiting. Two pieces of that or flounder are great broiled with 90 or so percent crab meat in between. MMMMM, great an absolute TON of sliced lemons, a chef's salad and white wine. |

It's probably just mayo and minced celery, but I can't seem to get it right at home. Look like Valerie has a copycat-original: https://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/re...lad37819.shtml -sw |

Yeah, but you have TIAD. Crab is the best seafood of all. But nothing smaller than dungeness for me. Screw the picking of blue crabs. I'll do soft shell blue crabs, though. They're not that stellar, but at least you don't have pick them. I remember one year - probably 1996 or so, they were $1.50/lb first couple weeks of February. I just surgery to place seven screws and a plate in my lower leg and ankle. But dammit, I waddled the two blocks starting at 6:30 am to get there at 7:AM when, every other day for almost 2 weeks to buy every crab they had. Then I had to my time getting back because the liquor store didn't open until 9:AM. You can't take Norco (10mg hydrocodone) without hard liquor - that would be a waste or Norco. -sw |
