Crab Canapes Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Combine the crab meat with the mayonnaise, herbs and seasonings. Spread on rounds of toast. Broil until browned. Makes 16 canapes

Steps:

• Heat a grill to hot, or turn on the broiler. Cook bell pepper until it is completely charred, turning so all sides cook evenly, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer warm pepper to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside until cool.
• Using your hands, rub off charred skin. Slice pepper in half, and remove seeds and stem. Cut pepper into diamond shapes that are slightly larger than a piece of baguette.
• Using a wooden spoon, mix together butter and two mustards in a small bowl until well combined. Spread a generous dollop of mustard butter on each slice of bread.
• Place remaining ingredients except marjoram in a medium bowl, and toss to combine. Place a pepper diamond on each piece of bread, and top with a mound of crab salad. Garnish each canape with several marjoram leaves, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk in flour and cook until foamy, about 1 minute. Add milk slowly, whisking constantly. Slowly bring mixture to a boil, continue whisking, and cook until very thick, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper; let cool. When cool, gently fold in crab, red pepper, and chives.
• Using a 1 1/4-inch round cutter, cut 6 rounds from each slice of bread. Mound 1 level teaspoon crab mixture onto each bread round. Place canapes on a baking sheet, and bake until bread is crisp on the bottom and crab is hot, about 10 minutes. Garnish with additional chives, and serve warm.

Steps:

• Spread cream cheese over crackers. Top with crab, preserves, coconut, nuts and chives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lay out the bread slices and, using the biscuit cutter, punch out 5 bread rounds per slice. Place the rounds on a baking sheet and place the sheet in the top half of the oven for 3 minutes, until the rounds are lightly toasted. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• Drain the crabmeat well and place it in a mixing bowl. Add the mayonnaise, cumin, hot sauce, lime juice, chives and salt and mix well. Mound the crab mix onto the bread rounds by the teaspoonful and garnish with a piece of chive.
