Varm Krabbsmorgos (Hot Crabmeat Canapes)
- 1/2 pound crab meat fresh frozen or canned, drained and picked
- 1 tablespoon sherry dry
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 18 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 tablespoon dill weed fresh, chopped
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon flour, all-purpose
- 1 large egg yolks
- 1 cup light cream (half&half)
- 6 slices bread white; home-style
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the crabmeat, sherry, salt, pepper and dill and set aside.
- Melt the tablespoon of butter without browning it in a small, heavy saucepan, remove from the heat and stir in the flour.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg yolk with the cream and briskly stir this mixture into the butter-flour roux with a wire whisk.
- Return the pan to the heat and cook slowly, whisking constantly for a minute or two until the mixture thickens; do not let it boil.
- Pour the sauce over the crabmeat mixture in the bowl and stir together with a spoon until the ingredients are well combined.
- Taste for seasoning.
- Cut four rounds from each slice of bread, using a small cookie cutter or glass.
- Toast the bread rounds on one side only under a moderately hot broiler.
- Remove and spread the untoasted side of each round generously with the crabmeat mixture, mounding it slightly.
- These may be prepared in advance up to this point and then refrigerated.
- Just before serving, place under a hot broiler for a minute or so until the canapes brown slightly.
- Serve very hot.
