Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 3

freshly caught live Dungeness crabs
filtered water
spices (optional)

Steps:

  • Put rack or other steamer insert in the pot.
  • Add water until the level is at the same height as the rack so water doesn't reach the crabs. Bring to a rolling boil over very high heat.
  • Optionally sprinkle the crabs with spices, such as Old Bay.
  • Place crabs in pot and cover tightly with lid.
  • Steam for 12 minutes, remove lid, and let stand until crabs are cool enough to handle.

DUNGENESS CRABS STEAMED ON THE GRILL IN GINGER, LIME, MIRIN AND SOY



Dungeness Crabs Steamed on the Grill in Ginger, Lime, Mirin and Soy image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups crab stock
1 cup mirin
1 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup sliced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 limes, juiced
4 large Dungeness crab, 2 to 2 1/2 pounds each, killed and cleaned
2 to 3 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Pinch red chile flakes
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill to medium-high heat.
  • In a large roasting pan over high heat, add the stock, mirin, soy sauce, ginger, toasted sesame oil and lime juice and bring to a boil. Add the crabs, shell-side up, and place the pan on the grill. Cover the grill and steam the crabs until they are just cooked through, about 30 minutes, flipping the crabs halfway through cooking. Remove the crabs to a platter.
  • Strain the steaming liquid into a bowl. Return the liquid to the roasting pan and whisk in the honey, black pepper and chile flakes. Bring to a boil and simmer until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes. Whisk in the butter. Halve the crabs and put 2 halves into 4 serving bowls. Pour the sauce over and garnish with cilantro.
