Pulled crabs are mixed with briefly blanched (drain into boiling salted water – iced water) carrots and leek pieces, diced pickles and chive rolls. Later, heat the fish stock with dill tips, a little bit of Tabasco, Pernod or possibly saffron threads, fennel herb, juice of a lemon, pepper and salt. Add the gelatin, stir – pour over the crabs and fill into porcelain molds rinsed with cold water. After 5 to 6 hours in the refrigerator, the aspic can be turned out and enjoyed with fresh lettuce and a little crème fraîche.
Our tip: Always use fresh chives if possible!
