Crab And Celery Remoulade Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Add the mayonnaise, parsley, seafood seasoning, Dijon mustard and lemon zest, then mix well to combine. Add the crabmeat and panko and mix gently but thoroughly to combine. Form 8 crab cakes by pressing them into shape with a 1/3-cup measure. Place on a buttered baking sheet.
• Place an oven rack 8 inches from the broiler element. Heat the broiler to a high setting. Brush the tops of the crab cakes with the melted butter. Broil until golden on top and heated through, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately with the lemon wedges and Remoulade.
• Add the mayonnaise, capers, garlic salt, pepper and lemon juice to a bowl and whisk.

Steps:

• Use a serrated knife to peel the celery root of all the brown outer portions, like peeling a pineapple. Cut the celery root into thin matchsticks with a mandoline, or grate them in a food processor fitted with the coarsest grating blade. With the food processor, press a little as you feed the chunks through and you will have larger shreds. Place the celery root in a large bowl, sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and allow to stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk together the mayonnaise, the 2 mustards, the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice, the vinegar, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and the pepper. Add enough sauce to lightly moisten the salad. (You may have some sauce left over.) Serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• For the remoulade: Pulse the shallots and capers in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the mayonnaise, chives, mustard, smoked paprika, salt and pepper; pulse until well combined. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust. (The remoulade will keep, refrigerated, for 4 days. It is best made a day ahead.)
• For the crab cakes: Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and peppers and saute until soft, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Let cool to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, chiles, crabmeat, 1 cup of the panko, mayonnaise, chives, parsley, salt, pepper and the cooled vegetables. Gently mix until well blended. Pack the crab mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup, then gently tap out into your hand and form into a patty. Place the patty on a baking sheet and repeat with the rest of the crab mixture. Spread the remaining 1 cup panko on a large plate. Dredge the crab cakes in panko on all sides.
• Melt another 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. When hot, add the crab cakes in batches, flattening them a bit with the back of a spatula. Cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Between batches, add another tablespoon of butter and olive oil to the pan.
• Place the browned crab cakes on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until sizzling and heated through.
• Serve the crab cakes with remoulade sauce on the side.

Steps:

• For the crab cakes: Place a medium cast-iron pan over medium heat. Add the butter and shallots and sweat until softened and just starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, combine the crab, cracker crumbs, parsley, dill, softened shallots and a sprinkle of salt and pepper in a bowl. Set aside. Mix the egg, creme fraiche, mayonnaise and Dijon in a medium bowl until combined. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the crab and mix well until incorporated. Form 6 equal sized balls and flatten into discs.
• For the dredge: In a bowl, combine the cornmeal, smoked paprika, white pepper, salt, seafood seasoning and celery salt. Gently coat the exterior of each crab cake disc in the cornmeal mixture and place on a tray. Chill the crab cakes in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour or up to 4 hours to help them stay together while cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the celery root remoulade: Meanwhile, thinly slice the celery root and apples on a mandoline and cut into matchsticks. Place both in a large bowl and cover with the lemon juice to coat so they do not brown or oxidize. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, creme fraiche, hot sauce, tarragon, Dijon and salt, then season with the pepper. Add the creme fraiche mixture to the celery root and apples and gently toss to combine. (For a thinner sauce, feel free to add more mayonnaise and adjust seasoning.)
• In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on medium heat, then add the olive oil and butter and heat until hot. Place the crab cakes in the skillet and sear to crispy, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the cast iron to the oven for 5 minutes to warm through.
• For the pea shoot salad: Add the pea shoots and radishes to a medium bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and lemon juice to coat. Add the mustard seeds, then season with salt and pepper and mix gently.
• Spread a generous amount of remoulade on a platter. Place the crab cakes on top and garnish with the salad.

Steps:

• To make the crab burgers:
• In a large bowl, whisk mayonnaise, egg, scallions, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, hot sauce, and salt and pepper, to taste. Fold in the crabmeat and 1 cup of the bread crumbs until just combined. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form into patties. Put the patties on the baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
• Meanwhile make the slaw: In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, Dijon, lemon juice, paprika, cayenne, parsley and salt and pepper, taste. Using the grater attachment on the food processor or a box grater, grate the celery root. Work quickly so that the root doesn't turn brown. Transfer to a medium bowl, add pour the dressing over the celery root. Toss to combine and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes before serving.
• Remove the crab patties from the refrigerator. Place the remaining bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Dredge the patties in the bread crumbs and pat along the edges.
• Heat the oil in a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is hot but not smoking. Place the patties into the oil and cook about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towel lined plate to drain. Season the patties with salt while they are still warm. Place on baking sheet to hold in a preheated 250 degree oven while you toast the buns.
• Slice the kaiser rolls in half, butter, put on a sheet pan and toast under the broiler.
• To assemble the burgers, place a patty on the bottom half of each bun and top with the Celery Root Slaw, a piece of lettuce and a tomato slice. Cover with the other half of the bun and serve with Rajun' Cajun Onion Rings.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the sour cream, the milk and the hot sauce. Add the onion rings and set aside while you season the flour. In a large baking dish or pie plate, combine the celery salt, onion powder, garlic powder, mustard powder, paprika, chili powder, white pepper, salt and the flour.
• Heat about 3 inches of oil to 350 degrees F in a large Dutch oven.
• Remove the onion rings from the liquid mixture and dredge in the flour mixture. Repeat the process to double coat the rings. Place the onion rings into the oil in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Drain the onion rings on a paper towel lined plate and season with salt while still hot, then transfer to a serving platter.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl add the bread, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt.
• In a medium saute pan over medium heat add the butter, olive oil, onion, celery, and scallion. Season with salt and pepper, then add the seafood boil seasoning. Stir and cook until the vegetables are tender, but not browned. Add the garlic and cook 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat, stir in the lemon zest and let it cool. Once cooled, add to the bowl with the milk and bread. Stir to combine then add the egg whites and stir to combine. Add the crabmeat and lightly combine with your hands. Divide and make into 8 balls; the batter will be moist. Place the balls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
• Bake until light golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve with a spoonful of my Celery Root Remoulade, recipe follows.
• Trim the root end of the celery root and trim the skin off all around. Shred the celery root using a box grater or the grater attachment on a food processor.
• In a medium bowl combine the celery root, thyme, mayonnaise, vinegar, grainy mustard, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, and sugar. Taste the mixture and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice together thoroughly with a generous sprinkling of salt and some freshly ground black pepper, so it all becomes one sauce.
• Peel and quarter the celeriac, then, working quickly, coarsely grate it and stir into the sauce until evenly coated. Serve the celeriac remoulade with lots of toast and some dressed watercress. It will keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the curry powder and mustard. Beat in the vinegar, then slowly add the grape-seed oil to make a well-emulsified dressing. Set aside.
• Peel the celery root. Cut into 3 sections horizontally, making the middle section about 2 inches thick. Slice the middle section into 12 thin, large disks, wrap them in plastic wrap and reserve. Cut the other 2 sections, along with any of the celery root remaining from the middle section, into small dice.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil, add the diced celery root and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until just tender. Drain and refresh under cold water. Drain well and set aside.
• Pick over the crab meat to remove any stray bits of cartilage. In a bowl, mix the crab meat with the cooked, diced celery root and the tomatoes. Reserve 6 of the chives, finely chop the rest and mix them in. Beat the dressing and fold half of it into the crab-meat salad. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Heat the peanut oil in a wok or a skillet until very hot. Dry the reserved celery root disks on paper towels if necessary and fry the slices, turning them once, until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
• To assemble, place a round of celery root on each of 6 plates, top each with a portion of the crab-meat salad, then with another round of celery root. Mix the remaining dressing again and pour it around each of the napoleons. Cut the reserved chives in half and place two pieces across the top of each celery-root disk.
