ONE OF THE FEW SEASONAL TREATS IN LATE FALL IS OREGON CRAB!
WE MORTGAGED OURSELVES AND BOUGHT A 6 OZ TUB AT FREDDIES ON SALE FOR A WOPPING $7.99...THAT WORKS OUT TO ABOUT $21.00 A POUND...
SO I MIXED IT WITH CHOPPED ONIONS, GARLIC, MUSHROOMS AND CUBED CHEDDAR CHEESE AND A BIT OF MAYO (JUST ENOUGH TO HOLD IT TOGETHER) PILED IT ON ROSEMARY POTATO FRENCH BREAD AND STUCK IT UNDER THE BROILER.
GOOD STUFF, MAYNARD.
THE CRAB FLEET WAS LATE GOING OUT THIS YEAR BECAUSE THEY OVER-TRAPPED LAST YEAR AND THIS YEAR'S CROP WAS TOO SMALL TO BE LEGAL.
WE HOPE FOR MORE CRAB AND A BIT LOWER PRICE BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
That looks totally worth smuggling over the CA/OR border for!
