King Crab Rolls Recipes

CRAB ROLLS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, Old Bay, and cayenne. Gently fold in crabmeat.
• Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium, about 8 minutes. Generously brush top and sides of buns with butter. Place buns, flat-side down, in skillet and toast, flipping halfway through, until crisp and golden on both sides, about 3 minutes. Line inside of buns with 1 to 2 lettuce leaves; divide crabmeat among buns. Drizzle tops with remaining melted butter; sprinkle with chives and more Old Bay. Serve, with lemon wedges and potato chips.

KING CRAB LEGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place crab legs in a shallow baking pan.
• Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted, about 3 minutes. Whisk in seafood seasoning, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. Brush crab legs with butter mixture and pour any remaining mixture over crab legs.
• Bake in the preheated oven until opaque and flaky, basting regularly with the butter mixture in the pan, 25 to 35 minutes.

KING CRAB APPETIZERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease 12 tartlet pans.

KING CRAB ROLLS

• In a nonstick skillet set over low heat, heat the butter until it begins to foam. Brown the hot-dog buns on both sides and set aside to cool slightly.

ALASKAN KING CRAB SUMMER ROLLS

• Purée jalapeño and avocado with vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender, then transfer to a bowl and stir in mayonnaise and tobiko.
• Stir together yuzu juice, soy sauce, and chile oil in a small bowl.
• Soak 2 rice-paper wrappers in a 13-by 9-inch baking dish of warm water until pliable, about 5 seconds. Put 1 soaked wrapper on a damp kitchen towel (not terry cloth), then place other wrapper below the first (closer to you), overlapping them halfway. Put one fourth of crabmeat across lower third of wrapper (nearest you), leaving a 2-inch border at bottom. Spread with 1 1/2 tablespoons avocado mixture and top with one fourth each of carrot mixture, cucumber, and sliced scallion. Fold bottom of wrapper over filling and roll up tightly, putting 2 cilantro sprigs on wrapper halfway through. Make 3 more rolls in same manner (you will have avocado mixture left over).
• Trim ends and cut each roll into 4 pieces. Divide among 8 shallow bowls, standing them up, and top each with a dollop of avocado mixture and a cilantro leaf. Drizzle yuzu sauce around rolls.

Steps:

• In a deep-fryer or Dutch oven, add oil to fill 2/3 of the way and preheat to 375 degrees F.
• In a saute pan, add the 2 tablespoons oil. Add onion and garlic, and cook for 2 minutes over medium-high heat. Add cabbages, green onion, carrot, oyster sauce and salt and pepper, to taste. Cook over high heat for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain excess liquid, and cool. Fold in crabmeat and mix to combine. Separate the sheets of spring roll wrappers, and keep under a slightly damp towel. Place 2 tablespoons of crabmeat filling on the wrapper. Fold nearest edge of wrapper over filling; fold left and right corners toward the center. Roll tightly and seal with the egg wash. Place the spring rolls into the preheated oil and fry until golden brown. Place on paper towels to drain. Serve with Pickled Ginger Vinaigrette.
• In a mixing bowl, combine dashi, sugar and rice wine vinegar. Transfer mixture to a blender and add fresh ginger, pickled ginger and salt. Slowly add salad oil to the blender. Serve chilled.
