We tried this first crab appetizer recipe from McCormick and Schmick's "Seafood Restaurant Cookbook". Who would have thought about crab tater tots? We tried them and absolutely loved them! And, yes, this will bring out the child in everyone, just as they had claimed! You can purchase the cookbook right here over in the right hand column... Crab Tater TotsIngredients:
Fold in the remaining ingredients and blend well. To form the crab tater tots, pinch off a generous tablespoon of the mixture and roll into tater tot-shaped balls. These are best deep fat fried, but they can be drizzled with oil or spray and baked at 400 degrees. Whichever method you use, the tots need to be chilled, first, for at least and hour. This crab appetizer recipes can even be frozen. Allow the tot's to thaw refrigerated for 1 to 2 hours before cooking. Serve with your favorite crab dip recipes. Makes anywhere from 80 to 100 tater tots-about 10 servings.
Who don't like pot stickers? These take a bit of prep time, but they are well worth the fuss. This is one of our favorite crab appetizer recipes, too. Crab Pot StickersIngredients:
Lightly flour a baking sheet; set aside. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of mixture into each of the gyoza wrappers. Moisten the edges of the wrappers with a bit of water. Fold the wrappers in half over the filling and pinch the edges together. In large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat until very hot. Carefully place half of the pot stickers upright in the skillet and cook for about 1 minute or until the bottoms are lightly browned. Reduce heat. Carefully add 2/3 cups of the water to skillet. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove the cover and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes or until all the water has evaporated. Cook again, uncovered, for 2 to 3 minutes until the bottoms are browned and crisp. Use a wide spatula to carefully remove the crab pot stickers from the skillet. Keep them warm while cooking the remaining pot stickers same way as above, using the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and 2/3 cups of water. Makes 32 crab pot stickers.
Fried Crab ClawsSay this recipe 5 times real fast! Trust me, they're easier to make! This crab appetizer recipe makes an elegant dish. If the crab claws you have to use in this dish were purchased, do not re-boil. Ingredients:
Finely chop the shrimp by hand or electric blender. Add salt, pepper, sherry, 1/2 beaten egg, and 1 teaspoon of the cornstarch. Blend well. Scoop 1 1/2 tablespoons of shrimp mixture on each crab claw. Use wet fingers to shape the mixture smoothly around it. Leave the tip as a handle. Dredge claws evenly with the remaining cornstarch. Dip claws in remaining egg. Coat evenly with bread crumbs. Heat oil to 400 degrees. When moderately hot, add the crab claws a few at a time. Deep fry for about 12 minutes, until they become golden brown, turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels. Serve with your favorite crab dip recipe. Serves 10.

Cashew Dipping SauceIngredients:
