Crab Tom Yum Soup
Love this Crab Tom Yum Soup! Do try it, then, come back and let us know how you liked it...
Directions: In a large, nonstick stockpot, cook the seafood stock, water, fish sauce, lemongrass, ginger and garlic over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Rinse any ice glaze from the frozen crab leg portions under cold water. Turn off heat and gently add mushrooms and crab legs to the liquid and return heat to a simmer. Once simmering, cover the pan and cook 4 to 5 minutes for frozen crab legs or 2 minutes for fresh/thawed crab legs. Turn off heat and let rest for 5 minutes or until the crab legs are opaque. Remove the lemongrass and ginger slices. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Portion the crab legs and broth into bowls. Garnish with chili pepper slices, cilantro and a lime wedge.

Their shells will turn bright red when properly cooked. Already cooked crab meat is widely available. Although it's often sold frozen, seek out fresh cooked crab meat for the best flavor and texture. In the months of September through April, during most crab fishing seasons is when the local fish markets often sell cooked whole crabs. Ask for them to be cleaned and cracked, or take them home crack them yourself and then remove the meat. Join our newletter "Crab Clique"
