Maine Crabmeat with Mushrooms and Tarragon
Ingredients:
- 8 scallions
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 pound mushrooms -- quartered
- 1/2 cup dry vermouth
- 1/4 cup fresh tarragon -- chopped
- 1 pound fresh Maine crabmeat
- 1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt -- room temperature OR combination of both
- salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 4 slices crisp toast -- buttered
Instructions:
Cut the scallions in thin slices, separating the white bulb from
the
tender greens. Heat the butter in a skillet, add the white part
of the
scallions and the mushrooms, and toss and cook over medium heat
5 minutes.
Pour in the vermouth and let boil a few seconds, add half the
tarragon,
the crabmeat, and the scallion greens, stirring. When hot, stir
in the
sour cream and/or yogurt, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook just
long
enough to heat through.
Divide evenly over hot buttered toast,
and
scatter the remaining tarragon on top.
