Crabmeat Imperial
This wonderful
recipe was donated to me by Dick English, a cook on the offshore
drilling rig Rowan Anchorage. Dick is one of those good ole' cooks
who can make anything taste better. For those who don't realize
it, the cooking on the offshore drilling rigs is excellent. Those
cooks feed an average of 55-60 people per meal...four meals a day!
