Crab Salad

2025-09-27T22:34:54Z

April:

== Ingredients ==
* 300 grams of crab or imitation crab coarsely chopped
* 50 grams shredded cheddar
* 20 grams gouda
* 1 T butter or margarine
* 1.5 T Ranch dressing
* 2.5 T Mayo
* 6 sticks of celery chopped
* 4 green onions chopped
* ½ t celery salt
* 1 t dried parsley
* 2 t dried cilantro
* 1/8 t black pepper

== Directions ==

# Sauté the chopped vegetables in the butter until they are almost completely soft but still have a slight bit of firmness.
# Put all ingredients into a large microwavable dish and stir well.
# Microwave just until the cheese is melted and well distributed throughout.
# Serve warm or cold according to preference.

== Notes ==

This is a recreation of the recipe as I made it a week ago but it didn't turn out as well this time so the proportions are off a little. I adjusted the cheese proportions and increased the mayo a bit from what I actually made but it still needs work. Perhaps the spices could be stronger but not too much.

April: This turned out well the first time I made it and this is the recreation but it did not turn out as well this time. The proportions need work. I adjusted the cheese and mayo in the recipe as a guess to what needed adjustment. I think the spices aren't strong enough in this version though.

=== Ingredients ===

==== Crust ====
* 190g Graham Crackers
* 35g sugar
* 75g melted unsalted butter

==== Cheesecake ====
* 32oz full fat cream cheese (4 8oz blocks)
* 325g granulated sugar
* ½ tsp salt
* 1 tsp vanilla
* 4 large eggs
* 120g heavy cream
* 240g sour cream
* 1 T cornstarch
* 3 T lemon juice

=== Instructions ===
# Bring all ingredients to room temperature
# Preheat oven to 350
# Grind graham crackers, sugar and butter in a food processor until really smooth
# Butter the bottom of 9 inch springform pan and add the crust ingredients. Pack very tightly using a measuring cup. Push the edges up the side a little
# Bake for 8 minutes, remove from oven and then lower the temperature to 325
# Whisk the cream cheese sugar salt and vanilla for 3-5 minutes until well combined and creamy
# Lightly whisk eggs in a separate bowl. Do NOT overbeat to the point of becoming airy or it will make the cheesecake spongy.
# Add the eggs to the cream cheese batter and mix at a low speed until just combined.
# Add the cream, sour cream, lemon juice, and cornstarch and mix at a low speed until just combined, scraping the sides of the bowl to ensure batter is fully mixed.
# Pour the batter into the crust (you may use parchment paper around the sides to keep it from sticking) and seal the pan tightly with aluminum foil on the outside but not the top.
# Place a large tray in the oven and add 1-2 inches of boiling water. Place cheesecake pan in the water and bake for about 75-80 minutes. DO NOT open the oven. When done, cheesecake should have firm edges but a jiggly center.
# Cool at room temp for 15 minutes then, if you didn't use parchment paper, run a butter knife or offset spatula around the edge of the cheesecake carefully so it is no longer sticking to the edges of the pan. This will help keep the cheesecake from cracking as it cools. Do not open the pan or release the edges of the pan until cheesecake cools 2-3 hours at room temp and has set in the refrigerator overnight (or 8 hours)

* 2 c vegetable broth
* 2 16 oz cans tomato sauce

== Directions ==

# Cook the rice and barley according to package directions and set aside
# Cook the impossible beef, sausage, chopped onion basil and garlic together in a large skillet
# After meat has browned, add the roasted tomatoes with juice and allow to stew until most of the liquid has evaporated. Then remove from heat.
# Mix the rice and barley together with the Parmesan cheese, shredded cheese mixture, eggs, sundried tomatoes, green chilis, and salt.
# Pour half of the tomato sauce into a large skillet (all peppers will roast in this skillet so it needs to be big! Or split between two pans or two batches if needed)
# Add the vegetable broth to the skillet and mix well.
# Cut tops off peppers, remove stem, and clean out the seeds.
# Fill peppers with the rice mixture and place in skillet in the tomato sauce mixture.
# Top with pepper cap and pour remaining tomato sauce over the tops of the peppers.
# Bring the sauce to a low boil and then lower heat to just above simmer.
# Place the lid on the pan and set a timer for 25 minutes. Keep an eye on the mix to be sure it is not cooking at too high of a heat so that the liquid does not evaporate and scorch your peppers.
# After stewing 25 minutes, put the peppers in the oven at 370 degrees F. for 50 minutes.
# Turn of the oven and let peppers sit for another 15 in the oven.
# Serve with a generous spoonful of the tomato sauce poured on top.

# In a large stock pot, add the water, kosher salt, brown sugar, pickling spice, cardamom pods, star anise, pink curing salt, and garlic. Stir and bring to a boil. Lower to simmer and cook until salt and sugar have dissolved. Turn off the heat and cool.
# Place the beef in a large sealable plastic bag and pour the cooled brine liquid over it. Seal the bag and place in a dish large enough to catch liquids should the bag leak. Store in a refrigerator for 8 days, turning the beef on day 4. (Can be cured 10 days if needed/or preferred, turning the meat halfway through the timeframe)

===== Cooking =====

# Place the beef on the instant pot rack.

# Lock lid in place and close the vent. Select high pressure and set for 90 minutes with a natural pressure release NOT quick release.
# Remove the corned beef and wrap in aluminum foil to keep it warm while you prepare the vegetables.
# Add potatoes, carrots and cabbage to the liquid in the pot. Leave 2 inches of space at the top of the vegetables to avoid overflow!
# Seal the lid and set to high pressure for 3 minutes. Do a quick pressure release.
# Serve with the corned beef.
