ASIAN BLACK PEPPER CRAB
I have adapted this to the finest crab in the world - the inimitable Atlantic blue crab, Callinectes sapidus, 'beautiful swimmers'. Nothing compares to their rich unctuous, mildly sweet, faintly briny, "ocean" flavor - nor to their absolute pugnacity & resoluteness in standing their ground. Insist your blue crabs are alive & fighting - they deteriorate rapidly when they expire (never fall for "they're just slow from the cold" - don't buy seafood from anyone who uses that line!). Atlantic blue crabs have suffered terrible population declines in the past 20 years - they seem to be making a comeback here in the past 2 to 3. We love going crabbing & using handlines while the traps sit through a tide n deeper water through a high tide. A wonderful book about our crabs is "Beautiful Swimmers - Watermen, Crabs and the Chesapeake Bay" by William W. Warner. I can't recommend this book highly enough. A most excellent summer read; oh & nice to know who you're eating. Serve al fresco with newspaper tablecloth, large pasta bowls if available, steamed rice, steamed Chinese broccoli or green beans, cucumber shavings in rice wine vinegar and a light bubbly ice cold beer.

SINGAPORE BLACK PEPPER CRAB
From the cookbook Spice It - given to me recently as a present by my ex husband! I have developed a real love of crabs and am pretty handy at catching and dispatching of them now days. It's a great way to fill in a few hours: catching, cooking, cleaning and picking or eating them and makes me feel like a real "hunter and gatherer"!

Steps:
- Put kecap manis, oyster sauce, sugar and 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl, stir, then set aside.
- Pull back the apron of each crab, remove top shell, then intestines and feathery gills. Rinse quickly.
- Cut each crab into quarters and crack the legs gently (I use a meat mallet) so the flavours can enter.
- Heat the oil in a very large wok over high heat; add the crab pieces and stir fry in batches until the shell is bright orange and the meat almost cooked (about 5 minutes). Remove and repeat until all is cooked.
- Add the butter, ginger, garlic, chilli, black and white peppers and coriander to the wok; stir fry 30 seconds.
- Add the sauce mixture and stir; bring to the boil, then simmer 2 minutes.
- Return the crab to the wok and toss to coat in the sauce.
- Cook a further 2-3 minutes to finish cooking the crab then garnish with the spring onions and coriander leaves.
- Serve at once.
