Library Journal

Thompson, a food writer based in North Carolina, grew up eating blue crab in traditional Southern preparations like She-Crab Soup. Here, he covers all the other important members of the family, from the West Coast Dungeness to Alaskan king to Florida stone crab, along with recipes inspired by a variety of cuisines. He includes detailed information on buying and preparing the different varieties of crab and types of crabmeat, boxes on topics such as "Crab Feeds, Feasts, and Boils," and a list of crab festivals around the country. The delectable recipes range from Soft-Shell Crabs in Spicy Peanut Sauce to Crab R moulade with Fried Green Tomatoes to crab cakes (more than a dozen versions). Thompson has an engaging style, and his latest will be useful as a reference as well as a cookbook. For most collections. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
