Steps:
- Lay the crab on its back, twist off the claws and legs, and set aside.
- Use the palm of your hand to push down on the crab. Then get your fingers between the gap where the body meets the shell and pull upwards.
- Pulling quite hard, completely separate the crab body from the shell - it should come away in one piece.
- Pull away and discard the feathery gills (also known as dead man's fingers) - these are found around the main body and inside the shell.
- Use a spoon to scoop out the brown meat from the shell and transfer it to a bowl.
- Use a heavy knife to cut the main body in half.
- Using a lobster pick or skewer, pick the white meat out of the cavities in the body and put in a separate bowl. It's worth taking your time to do this, as there is a surprising amount of meat in all the small crevices.
- Crack the claws and legs using a heavy object like a kitchen mallet or rolling pin - try to break them with one sharp tap. You don't want the shell to shatter into very small pieces as they will be difficult to find.
- Carefully remove the meat using a lobster pick or teaspoon. Discard the cartilage in the middle of the claws and legs. Put the meat in the bowl with the other white meat. Check the bowl for stray shell by shaking it from time to time - shell fragments 'ping' against the side of the bowl and can be removed.
- Give the empty shell a good scrub and use a pair of kitchen scissors to neaten the edge of the cavity. Mix the brown crabmeat with enough fresh breadcrumbs to stiffen the meat. Season with salt and pepper, the cayenne pepper and lemon juice.
- Spoon the white crabmeat back into the shell, then top with the brown meat mixture. Scatter with parsley, if you like, and serve with mayonnaise on the side, along with the extra lemon wedges and buttered brown bread or toast.

QUICK AND EASY CRABMEAT DRESSING
This is great for a dressing, stuffing, as a bed for Shrimp Scampi, or by itself. You can buy those little crab shells to stuff and broil, mold it into a loaf pan and bake, or use it to dress any main meat entree. This is a recipe from my wife's mother's collection.

Steps:
- Sauté garlic, onions, celery, and parsley. Set aside.
- Shred the crab meat.
- Prepare the stuffing mix as per instructions on the box but DO NOT COOK. In other words, just mix the water, butter, and stuffing mix together, without cooking it.
- Stir into the crab meat, add garlic powder, and mix until blended.
- Spoon into loaf pan treated with no-stick cooking spray (DO NOT PRESS).
- Brush lightly with butter, sprinkle with paprika, and bake covered in a 375°F oven for 45 minutes.
- Remove covering, add parmesan cheese, and continue to bake at 400°F for 10-15 minutes to allow the top to brown.
- Serve as a side dish, the main dish, or a bed for Shrimp Scampi.

- Grilled Dungeness Crab. Grilling Dungeness crabs gives them a sweet, slightly smoky flavor and a spicy ginger, jalapeño, and garlic baste adds a little kick.
- Quick Seafood Bisque. When the craving for crab hits, turn to this quick and easy seafood bisque that combines tender crab with sweet shrimp in a creamy, classic soup.
- Simple Crab Salad. A light and fresh crab salad showcases the tender meat's natural sweetness. Spiced with Old Bay and dressed with mayonnaise and lemon juice, diced celery and bell peppers add color and crunch.
- Crab Rangoons. Start off a summer get-together with these crunchy crab rangoons with cream cheese. A little steak sauce gives flaky cooked crab an earthy kick and the cheese lends a nice creamy texture.
- Thai Crab Salad. A creamy coconut-lime dressing gives this Thai-style crab salad an island flavor that will hit the spot on a hot day. Canned, frozen, or fresh crab all work fine in this recipe that features a whole spectrum of tastes and textures.
- Gluten-Free Crab Cakes. You don't have to give up crab cakes if you avoid gluten. This recipe comes out crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with that signature Old Bay flavor.
- Classic Crab Roll. The perfect summertime lunch or light dinner, this classic crab roll is made with a spicy lemon mayo, offering fresh flavors with a little kick.
- Crab Quiche With Cheese. Easy and versatile quiche tastes great hot and fresh from the oven or chilled as a light make-ahead lunch or dinner. Crab and Swiss cheese go perfectly together, and a dash of nutmeg and sautéed shallots give it a little spice.
- Deviled Crabs. For an elegant-looking summer appetizer, try deviled crab. Zesty Worcestershire sauce, minced onion and green pepper, a little tabasco and cayenne, and fresh lemon juice give them a delightful flavor.
- Sautéed Crab With Herbs. Sautéed crab meat makes a delicious summer weeknight meal because it requires very little time on the stove. Fresh chives and parsley give it a fresh herbal flavor, and butter lends a lovely richness.

- Kill crabs humanely, without damaging the top shell. Lift the abdominal flap underneath, remove and discard it, then, holding the bottom end, pull away the top shell. Discard gills, and scrape out and reserve yellow-brown tomalley. Twist off and crack claws, then cut the body of each crab into 4 pieces with legs attached. Cut the body of each crab into quarters. Scrub the underside and edges of top shells to remove any residue and return tomalley to shells.
- Preheat oven to 210°C. Transfer crab bodies and claws to a large oven tray, roast for 5 minutes, then add top shells (with tomalley) to oven on a separate tray. Continue to roast until crab flesh turns opaque and is just cooked (4-5 minutes; claws may take 1-2 minutes longer). Cool on trays (10 minutes), then refrigerate until chilled (30-40 minutes). Remove some of the shell from the claws to expose the meat, then pick crab meat from body and legs into a bowl, stirring through any custardy crab juices from the oven tray. Scrape tomalley from shells and pass through a fine sieve into a bowl.
- For mayonnaise, blend yolks, vinegar and mustard in a small food processor. With the motor running, gradually add oil in a thin, steady stream until slightly thickened and emulsified (1-2 minutes). Add lemon juice, season to taste and pulse to combine.
- Whisk rice bran oil and verjuice in a bowl, add to crab and toss to coat. Season to taste and spoon into shells. Serve on ice with claws, chives, black pepper, mayonnaise, tomalley, lemon and bread rolls.
